I have a GT 740 Sentey 2GB which i've bought used as it was cheaper, and it seemed in good state

Thing is it gives me artifacts when the VRAM Usage is near 1GB, sometimes nothing happens when it hits there, but most of the time when the VRAM
is at 0,8- 1,1GB theres artifacts everywhere and after a bit the drivers get restarted, and the game either crashed or on worst cases Windows just restarted or i have to hard restart

It's very anoying cause i have to look for other games that i can run without much problems, but i don't end up having that much fun.

What things can i try to fix it or atleast be able to play a wider range of games, before seeing any other GPU to buy?
