Before getting to any of the below.. update(clean install) to the latest video card drivers. If issue persists.........

There's a good chance the video card is overheating. Are you playing games on high/ultra settings for long periods? I'd suggest lowering the graphic settings a little and not going above 1080p. Also... blow out any dust buildup in the system(if you haven't done so lately) and try to keep it in a well ventilated location. If you feel up to it, I'd recommend replacing the thermal paste on the GPU with something better. Even on my current 1070 I replaced the thermal paste(as well as on the Titan I had before).
