GPU Crashes nvlddmkm, Help is needed.

[Stootle]

Hi there.

 

I have a problem regarding my graphics card. 

 

It basically freezes, and all I can do is move my cursor and nothing else. when playing games that require a lot from the card I need to restart the computer because I can't do anything.

I can even browse GIFs on reddit and it will freeze.  

 

What i have done already,

 

I have turned off the powersavings for the PCIe.

I have slightly overclocked the gpu because I wanted a more smooth run on some games. though this is not much, at all!  The crashing also happened before I did the overclocking.

I have reinstalled my gpu drivers and removed the old drivers beforehand.

 

After the most recent freeze did, my eventlog on the system bar spassed out. it was endless with errors as shown in the pictures.

 

I have added DXDiag pictures and eventlog pictures. if there is more you guys want then ask. 

 

all the eventlogs are the same errors that came up, so that is all the failures that happened.
