    So today i was playing Black ops (g73jh machine)
    max settings with 8x AA for about 2-3 hours straight and got a gsod...

    this never happened before and i dont know why it happened now.
    i gamed a lot before also.

    This machine is only 2 months old and i've only had problems with the keypad, but now this gsod.

    here is my version of drivers:
