Possible problem with gpu?

Hey guys so for 2 years now I've been using my 780 ti classified with no problem overclocked to 1202mhz.
 
However recently I started playing warframe and I put about 10 hours into it with no issues (and another 60 hour previously from about a year ago where I had no problems) then I go to play yesterday and my game is suddenly freezing up on me (checked event viewer and it was saying "Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully recovered").  So I go and try my tried a true Final Fantasy XIV which I have 750 hours in with no crashes or problems at all and before I could even finish logging in that game crashed.  So first thing I tried was reinstalling drivers and validating game files, still crashing. So I turned off my PC and switched over to my 2nd BIOS which is overclocked to 1137 mhz.
 
Warframe made it through roughly 20-25 min mission, Final Fantasy XIV Ran for 30 mins while I did a dungeon and unigine heaven ran for 30min without issue.
 
What are your thoughts on this?  Find it weird that it'd be stable for 2 years and now its having issues?

It could be something wrong with your GPU, but PSU problems can't be ruled out either.

thats called degradation

the "driver stopped working" message means your GPU is unstable and you need to either increase voltage or turn down the OC

I wouldn't be too quick to jump on that. But it won't hurt to up the voltage if you have the room.

If anyone asks you never saw me.

my 2nd bios is lower OC with lower Voltage and its been working fine so far.

Which is what you'd expect to happen when reducing an oc. Degradation would cause a need for more voltage (which would speed up degradation) or to lower the oc (which would require less voltage to be stable).

 

I'm not saying degradation is the problem, but don't dismiss it as a cause just because a lower oc works fine.

Warframe just crashed on the lower Overclocked bios, reflashing the stock bios for further testing.
