Alright so my computer is about 3 to 4 years old and obviously has windows 10 on it. Lately games such as Ark, Smite, and The Division have all been crashing my gpu drivers. Before you say anything i've done the following to try and see what's the issue:

-Uninstalled and Reinstalled my gpu drivers (about 2 times)
-Gone through support of both Nvidia and Smite and none seem to find the issue
-Ran Ram,Gpu,and Cpu tests (everything passed)
-Mess around with Nvidia control panel settings
-Reinstalled all games
-Validated all game files integrity
-Checked to see if any drivers were out of date and everything is of current

Now for my pc specs:
EVGA Gtx 970
i5-4460 3.20Ghz
8 gb ram (i don't know the brand.it came with the computer.. maybe this is the issue?)
Windows 10 Home
Also i dont know my mother board... It just says Lenovo lol.

So my overall question is should i try to reformat my computer or reinstall windows to see what the issue is? Or should i maybe try and update my BIoS (2 years old)

Thanks to whoever has any info and have a good day :3
