Hello people of Tom's Hardware.
This is another one of those "Display Driver has stopped working and recovered" question, but none of the fixes I have seen so far in the forums seemed to help, so I'm making another thread myself with my specific experience with the issue. I'm not much of a tech person so I'll add as many details as possible here.
So to start off I'm a gamer, as many of you are here, and I like to play games on hours on end. Seeing my need to achieve higher gaming performances I decided to build my own PC in the recent months. Here are the specs...

Everything was going fine with the rig, but about a month ago the issue occurred for the first time. I was playing Planetside 2 and Warframe on and off for about 6 hours or so. I was just about to start running Planetside 2 again, and as soon as I got into the game the screen crashed. Now during this "crash" I could still see the mouse pointer moving as it should, but the game screen itself has froze with unnatural color bleeding showing. This would go on for about 10 seconds and the screen would go black and come back. Everything was looking fine except for the windows error popup on the bottom right corner that read "Display driver stopped responding and has recovered." After 10 seconds of confusion the screen would go black again and just loop back to the error message. This would continue until I turned off Planetside 2.
I tried many things when this happened first from re-installing all of my drivers, checking my RAM and HDD for errors, and finally completely re-installing windows which fixed my problem for the time being.
Now the issue occurred again. I have no clue why this is happening and I don't think I want to wipe my hard drive another time just to get some of my games playing. Other people have been saying that their screen crashes when browsing youtube or twitch as well, but I can browse fine, just the high end performance games are causing this issue.
Here are some HWMonitor and Catalyst Control Center pics...

Don't know if this was enough for you guys to address the issue, but please help my if you could. Thanks!
EDIT: Forgot to add that during my gaming sessions the HWMonitor says that the video card runs at around little less than 60 degrees Celsius and it gets 1V of power. Thought the 1V was kind of low... Also I haven't OC any of my parts and they are running on factory settings.
