Tried to play older games like Assassin's Creed Brotherhood and revelations, fear2. Sometimes the display driver crashes and recovers, results in my game hanging.
I need to ctrl+alt+del, start task manager, alt+tab back in to the game, and I can continue playing. Sometimes this happens after a couple of hours. Sometimes after half an hour.

i've tried using 14.4 normal, then the 2 new beta drivers
Running a benchmark for over an hour at full specs -> no problem
Played sniper elite 3 completly in one go -> no problems
Played Sacred 3 for 3 days -> no problems
Played the New Transformers game -> problems -> fixed with driver update from normal to beta
Lichdom battlemage -> no problems
