i recently bought a notebook off of amazon (reliable seller, so returning is a possibility) but as i the title says the gpu driver keeps crashing and recovering. this happens to nearly every game i open, and happens after both the gpu, and the harddrive reach 100% load. i have tried many different versions of the drivers, including oem, so it is not them specifically. i also experience artifacting after opening any program. it is possible for me to return it, and get a full refund, but id prefer not to. i really would appreciate help, thank you

here are the specs
acer aspire v3-772g-9402
intel core i7 4602mq cpu 2.20GHz
nvidia geforce GTX760m
12.0 GB of ram
500gb hdd (5400rpm i believe)
64 bit windows 8.1
