AMD GPU drivers causing random crashes?

Since installing an RX I've had a few random lockups. Not just normal lockups, these ones result in a reset that spits out a nice error at the BIOS:

 

System reset caused by CATERR

928 - Fatal machine check detected on CPU0

    MLC MISC watchdog timer (3-strike) error

 

Only started since I installed a 5500XT and I get the occasional graphical glitch in game, mostly black rays coming from light sources but there's been some random lines across my second monitor just on the desktop.

 

System is a Z800 with dual X5570's.

Yup, but twice it was during game loading that it crashed, and a third time just before whilst I was making toast so not sure what could have caused it that time.

 

Just run the Intel Extreme tuning memory and CPU stress tests with stupid high temps and no issues. I'll go get into safe mode, DDU all drivers again and see what happens.
