GPU Problem or Driver?

Hello everyone, I just started to have this problem last night with my GPU. The driver was crashing whenever I try to load up Counter-Strike:Source and kept causing my cpu to spike to 100% for a split second and repeats every second. I was on ver. 335.23 or on 331.82 and hadn't had any problems until last night. So I decided to update the driver to 340.52 and still experience the crashes, but everything else seems to be ok. The driver crashed about 3 times last night within about 30 mins and I haven't found the reason why it's doing this. It also crashes when I try to run Furmark. I'm also running my GPU on stock settings.

Gigabyte GTX 760
Corsair CX600M

I tried playing on minecraft and run into graphics problems.

Also tried PvZ for about a minute and that seemed to be running fine.
On Starcraft II, right after the log in screen, the background flickers whenever I move the mouse and eventually the screen turns black and crashes. So I exited the game once it's recovered and my computer stutters and gets frozen so I had to restart the computer. Upon restarting and trying to restore my tabs on chrome, it crashes and recovers once again.
Maybe reinstalling the driver will solve this?

If you look at my task manager, you can see the spikes I'm talking about.

unless you can try the card in another computer or have a backup card to check yours its hard to tell

the screen loks good as far as appearance but the out of wack thing looks to point to a driver issue or a bad card overall

with out a way to verify this by having a card to try on yours or a computer to use your card in to check. you just don't know

As of now, it seems like it fixed itself somehow. I reinstalled the driver 3 times. But the last one I used ver. 335.23 which I started to have problems with in the first place. So I still haven't found the source of the problem.
