Hello! I've been running a small minor overclock on my GPU which is a ASUS NVIDIA GTX 770 DIRECTCU II for a while now and randomly my computer shut down, the drivers wouldn't load so I reinstalled them and it worked fine for about a day. The next day it did it again however the drivers wouldn't install again even clean installs of Windows.

Device manager reports error 43 that the device has stopped because it's reported errors. The display is still on the the graphics card still runs from the outputs on the card but I can't install the drivers etc.

AMD FX 8320 @2.9GHz (my motherboard is strange)
GIGABYTE 87LMT-S2P
8GB DDR3 RAM @ 1600MHz (2 chips)
ASUS GTX 770 DIRECTCUII
ViperX 850W PSU ( I think that's the brand)
Windows 8.1 64-bit
2 Seagate 1TB 500GB HDDs
1 Intel SSD 40GB
1 Sandisk 240GB SSD

Windows still detects the GPU and so does GPU-Z and the VRM sensors etc work but the card reports 0MHz.

That motherboard is not sufficient enough for FX-8 series ( the VRM is only 4+1, and outdated 760G chipset )
Thats why its throttling

It's a tier 5 PSU, meaning that not only does it not supply clean reliable power, it is also hazardous to your other components when it fails (timebomb).

Ah yes I think so also, my motherboard VRMs fried so now I have an excuse to switch over to an Intel i5 4670k with MSI Z87M-Gaming motherboard. Do you know any cheap but reliable coolers for an overclock of about 4.6GHz
