    Hello, everyone
    My driver always crashes when playing bf hardline (gonna test other games later).
    After the crash, the driver wont be able to run ANY 3D game until I reboot the computer..

    Does it still crash when you remove your GPU overclock?

    sasuke i guess it cause of overclock..had something similar and i figured out that lowering the overclocked resulted in stability..but before some games crashed and some not..just lower your overclock like octiceps said

    I lowered the RAM OC, from 900 to 800, seems to be okey..

    GPU crashing is usually because of unstable core clock because GDDR5 is crash-resistant, unless the VRAM OC destabilized your core.

    +135 core is kind of normal for a kepler card, but i pushed the memory to the max.. Nearly 6ghz :D

    Would be funny if your performance is actually lower than stock memory clocks LOL.

    did you also get nvida 337.88 drivers stopped working error?i get this error...maybe with higher voltage we can overcome that..i get a core clock 1002mhz and memory 2750 on my 760m..the only game that crashes is watch dogs..others work fine :) thats why i use watch dogs for benchmark for overclocking
