Specs? And any game or a specific game?

Try disabling SLI.

 

Wait. Do you have Intel's graphics drivers installed?

Try removing those. I got the exact same BSOD before, and I removed those drivers and the BSOD never came up again.

Yeah, that stop code is and apc index error and is typically associated with driver mismatch or overheating. And like godly gamer said, you're using the wrong driver most likely

I am good at computer

Have you tried downloading BlueScreenView?

 

That'll read the memory dump and should in theory point you in the right direction.

Thumbs up to BlueScreenVIew. I use it a lot when I try to help people with BSOD´s. Its just so much easier as it points you to the specific .dll/driver thats causing the problem, and making it so much easier to narrow down the problem.

 

Here is a link. Download links are at the bottom of the page: http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/blue_screen_view.html

No. Not wrong driver. Just the driver causing issues.
