A few weeks after installing my R7 260x, I overclocked it to 1.1GHz (gpu clock) and 1.8GHz (memory clock), and the power limit to 20. I used Sapphire TriXX. After few hours of Skyrim gameplay, or just using it, there's the BSOD. Here are some pictures:

Essentially, lower all the the speeds back to their default settings (and the power limit as well back to default). Then run the game again, or some other stressfull 3d program. If it works, then you know you have overclocked too far.

BCCode 124 just means a hardware error occurred. Most likely from your overclock. I see this one most when I overheat... which could be likely in your case, as it happens after gaming for a bit.
