Q: iMac issues HDD or Video Card?

broken screen.jpegI have been having issues with my 2011 27" iMac for a little while now.  The problem has steadily gotten worst. I can sign into my user name but the second the computer gets a tiny bit warm the screen will glitch and either go white or i get vertical brown and tan stripes, before eventually the computer restarts and the process begins again. I ran a hardware test and got an error code 4MOT/4/40000003:HDD-1217. All of files are backed up just in case. Any way of knowing that it is definitely HDD or the graphics card? Also just to let you know I am running 10.11. Thanks.
