Since yesterday I've been getting this a lot, and it's getting gradually worse. As soon as my gpu hits full load this happens. I get a lot of graphical flickering, game freezes, black screen for a second and it starts working again. Yesterday it would only happen once in 3 or 4 games of CS:GO (it is not game specific though). Now it will happen within 2 minutes of starting up the game.
If you've not heard about the event yet; description in event viewer is: Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully recovered.
My system has been working fine for a few months now, so it's strange that it happens now all of a sudden.
What I've done so far:

Clean install of the latest drivers (had them for a week or so already though)

Clean install of older drivers (beta and regular)

(Not clean) re-install of windows 7

The fix-it thing of the microsoft website

Googled a lot, many people with this problem

A different forum linked to this: http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18493... which might be possible, but I've not got that process running at all so it might be a new/other virus. Scanned with MSE. Might have to try a clean install of windows 7.

System specs: XFX pro 550w

Palit GTX 770 4gb

i5 3350p

b75 pro 3-m

8gb of ram

Also, while it not seems relevant to me, my gpu's coil whine has been getting a bit worse I think.

Ok if you are using a single cable from your psu to your GPU. That is the cable splitts in two at the end and you connect it to the 8 and 6pin on the GPU. Try using two cables as it could lead to that the PSU uses two rails to supply the power instead of one. It sound like a PSU problem, but it could also be a defect in the GPU or.. or.. :) . But try this if you can and reply with your findings.

Going to try that when I've got time tonight, however I doubt that this will fix it as it has been working properly for over half a year. The psu/gpu could be broken though. Anyways, thanks for the anser.
