I have Gigabyte Radeon 7950 WX3 since end of previous year and have stability issues. Previously card had a bios which positioning core voltage permanently 1250 mv and 1000MHz clock. After about 5 months of use has become unstable. I tried many things and nothing helped. In the end I have heard that it is worth to upload bios F43 (unlocks and reduces voltage and reduces the clock to 900 mhz). After installing the upgraded BIOS i set the clock to the standard 1000MHz. Unfortunately, in the games card is unstable, regardless of the configuration of tension. After a random time, for example in the call of duty ghosts suddenly the picture freezes for a moment, then turns black and the game process hangs. Battlefield 3 also to crash, but I had directx error. Most interesting, however, is that in Furmark card is fully stable. I also tried to run simultaneously FurMark and OCCT to a maximum charge card and processor and to exclude the power supply and everything was all right.

Perhaps the Card OC itself to get the best performance and that is what`s causing the crash. have you checked "cataclyst control center" to see if you have OC your card? you can find it in the "performance" tab.

then i dont know what might be the problem, sorry. might want to get the card tested.

only thing i can think of on top of my head is that the cables are not attached properly between the card and the mobo but i think that is one of the first things you checked.
