Graphics Driver Crashes

[BryceBT]

A couple of weeks ago I removed all drivers from my GPU (2GB GTX 770) and then installed the newest drivers. Up until just recently I haven't had any issues, but now It is crashing again, which causes my games to crash to desktop afterwards.

My screen freezes for 1-2 seconds, crashes to a black screen, and then goes to either a desktop or a white screen (game not responding). Then it says my display drivers have stopped responding and recovered in the bottom right windows tray.

I was thinking about just getting a 4GB 970, is this problem only from my GPU or will replacing it not help?

Basically having new driver does not guarantee 100% stability, it is still prone to some failure. Perhaps card build up enough heat which caused the crash shortly after.

I doubt its GPU fault, perhaps you overclock it?

Everything I have is factory clocked, the model I have is considered "Super clocked" or something but it is only like 5% over regular 770's. My temperatures never go above 60 C, or even 55 C, so I don't think it's overheating.

did you try to rollback to the older driver .

I did, but not after a clean wipe, do you know what the older driver is?

Select your GPU model

From the bottom of the screen pick one of the drivers from the list, perhaps start with January drivers and see how it holds up.
