OK, I tried my friend's BFG NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200. Reproduced again. :(
So, it is not my video card or the heat so far.

Then you should try to replace something else. Did you try to replace the
driver? Maybe the opensource nv driver or the opensource vesa driver is
more reliable than the nVidia binary driver? If it helps to replace the
driver it might also help to upgrade or downgrade the binary nvidia driver.
