unknownramires,

There seems to be a lot of issues with the Fermi architecture. Many people have the sleep issue or artifact issues with that item.

Nvidia released drivers for 10.8 that I believe a few people have had success with but that would do you any good on 10.6

This post is a bit old. Let us know if you find a fix.
