Hey all, first time poster and I've come to you with a problem regarding a graphics card issue, or at least what I'm hoping is simply a graphics card issue. An earlier search regarding this issue didn't yield too much success, and I'm thinking my problem might be slightly different:
I'm on a relatively new computer (just barely a month old):
GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX770
CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4670K CPU @ 3.40GHz
Memory: 15.95GB
Driver Version: 327.23
I've had absolutely no problem with the latest nvidia driver up until this point. I was playing Guild Wars 2 earlier with no issue, but after stepping afk for a while, I'd returned to my desk to a completely white screen- it appeared my computer had just crashed completely. I was forced to hard restart my machine, and after trying to reload the game, I was hit with an error:

"The NVIDIA OpenGL driver lost connection with the display driver due to exceeding the Windows Time-Out limit and is unable to continue."
I can't start up any game (tried with Skyrim, TF2 and Planetside 2 as well)-- and even running multiple videos/streams gives me this same error, where the video card just seems to crash when it's being put under stress. That was never a problem before, GPU temps were never anything abnormal, and nothing is being overclocked.
I've tried downgrading to older drivers, uninstalling/re-installing latest drivers, and every combination of editing the TdrLevel and TdrDelay, and nothing seems to work-- starting up a game just freezes up my entire machine.
What are my options here? What seems to be the cause? I feel like I'm just about ready to give EVGA a call...
