BSOD Code 116 with new GTX 970

So I'm getting this error a lot now, I never got it until about a month into using it. I thought maybe it was the new drivers but they had been running fine for since the 18th of November and I only got the errors around the second of December. I reverted them but and it was fine for a day, now it's crashing again. I'd really appreciate a translation of these dump files and maybe we can figure something out. There hasn't been any other hardware changes sine the upgrade. Praying it isn't faulty hardware, a clean install of Windows is an option but I'd prefer not to.

Oh and this will happen seemingly without a cause. It's happened while gaming, but it also happens a lot just using youtube or something like that.
