Weird Graphics(?) problem

To start, my specs - 
CPU: i5 4690k @ 4.6ghz

Motherboard: MSI Gaming 3 Z97
Graphics: MSI 6gb 1060 

 

Hi all! So about three months ago, pretty much all my games would start to experience some kind of fps lag or other crazy graphical errors, some game models would even start spazzing out, after 5-10minutes of gameplay. Some games, including all Blizzard games (WoW, Hearthstone, Heroes of the storm, Overwatch) could cause these graphical errors to go a step further, and cause both my monitors to start artifacting like crazy, then they would reset, and I'd experience no more weird graphical errors or fps lag of any kind, until I turn my computer off. The Blizzard app would also lock up - but can close it and reopen and play Blizzard games with no issue. Occasionally Windows 10 tells me that hardware acceleration has been turned off after this happens, but I cant find out how to turn it off to begin with, and this problem has only come up recently. 

 

I've tried everything I can think off - reinstalling all my drivers, turning overclocks off, changing ram configs, resetting bios battery, repairing games - nothing has seemed to work, so I've come to the LTT forum for assistance!

Thanks in advance, BJordn

Sounds like an issue with your graphics card, possibly its RAM. Try lowering the clocks on your GPU and its RAM a tad and see if it helps with stability.

Yeah tried lowering clocks on the ram and core clock - no luck.
