So basically I started getting these weird random bluescreens. I had been away for the night and didn't do anything with the computer. But then in the morning I would get these random crashes BCCode 116.

So I have confirmed the problem: once it goes under a little bit of load, it crashes. Tries GPU stress test with Fur-Mark and it crashed under a second. It's not about the temperatures, as I have a powerful cooling solution and my gpu temp never rises above 50 degrees under heavy load.

Also, I have been noticing that the crashes usually occur when an event ends or starts in a game.
For example, when a round ends in CSGO or my song on iTunes.

I have driversweeped my computer, reinstalled everything that has to do with nvidia, nothing seems to work.

If that matters, my monitor is running in 144Hz

Windows 7 64 bit ultimate

How old is your card? is it brand new?

Do you have any monitoring/overclocking programs running such as MSI afterburner?

And are your drivers up do date from the Nvidia website? - i believe that last version is 344.

My card should be less than 8 months old. I have had this computer now for 3-4 months, as I got it from my friend.
I don't have any OC devices, although my card is preclocked from factory. And yes, my drivers are new. Even with my older drivers I had this problem.

And please, im not a potato, i have checked all the common solutions to this problem, regarding bccode 116.

If your card is as new as you say it might be under warranty, i would suggest using that to get it sorted out.

You can also use a different card to see if the card is really the issue or is it the installation of it, this way making sure if its a hardware or software problem.
I would also install a fresh portable OS on a thumb drive and try to see if this problem continues on a freshly installed OS - some software installations can harm your drivers out of the blue.

And not a potato for sure, but you always have to make sure the basics were covered :)
