I recently installed a ASUS GTX 670 DirectCU MINI and it works perfectly fine when playing games or when running it through various benchmarks. However seemingly at random while browsing the web or doing nothing the 'Nvidia Kernel Mode Driver' will stop responding and recover or the display will just split in 3 and the colors distort as in the picture (http://i.imgur.com/tTqJPq4.jpg).
Right now I'm planning to just RMA the card, but I figured I'd ask here if anybody had any idea what could be causing it besides the card?
My set-up:

■ Rebooting fixes the issue, but usually only for a few minutes once it has first happened. I've tried repeatedly rebooting when it happened and eventually it was happening at the Windows 'Welcome...' screen.
■ If I run with 2 monitors it'll happen to them both, however if I plug one in after the fact it'll work perfectly fine.
■ I've tried with both the 320.49 & 327.23 drivers.
■ Temperatures and loads have also been fairly low whenever it has happened.
■ The card isn't overclocked either.
My set-up:
■ MSI Z77MA-G45 Motherboard
■ ASUS GTX 670 DirectCU MINI
■ I5 3570K (Overclocked to a stable 4.4GHz)
■ 2x4 GB G.Skill NT Series
■ LC Power Silent Giant Green Power (600w, w/ 2 12v @ 23A and 25A)
