Hello,

Every game I have tried crashes with no apparent pattern while using my PNY GTX 960 4gb. Skyrim has had a series of strange crashes, CSGO, Fistful of Frags, Destiny 2 gives "broccoli" error, etc.. The list goes on. Resident Evil 2 was broken and seemed to think there was a problem with directx11.dll.

I have an AOI cooler placed on the GPU, and it is slightly overclocked with MSI afterburner. Problem has been around longer than I have been overclocking it however.

I don't think the problem is temp related because games crash while starting and in the lobby as well as during gameplay. Temps are 15c idle, 55c max load.

I have tried updating drivers numerous times but I am not really sure what else there is to do, and I cannot get a new card due the market problems.

Any help is much appreciated

i7-7600k, GTX 960 4gb, Gigabyte H110m motherboard, G.Skill 8gb DDR4, Win 10. Using latest graphics drivers from geforce experience.
