Hi,

I recently build a PC with current specs:

GPU: EVGA GTX 970 SSC ACX 2.0
Driver Version: NVIDIA 353.30
CPU: Intel i7 4790K 4.0Ghz
Mobo: Asus Maximus VII Formula
PSU: XFX 550W XTR
Memory: Kingston 8GB 1600MHz Hyper X Fury
HDD: Western Digital Black 1TB
OS: Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bits

I'm having random driver crashes, i always got the following error message "Display driver stopped responding and has recovered.Display Driver NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, version 353.30 stopped responding and has sucessfully recovered.", it happens randomly during gaming, web browsing and stuff like that. Got the error message while i was writing this :)

I have tried downgrading the graphics driver version several times, performing clean installs during driver instalation and changed a few settings in Nvidia control painel.

I've assemble the PC by myself so maybe i could have done something wrong but everything seems to be in order. All components are installed with the latest drivers and the temperatures are OK.

I'm using the PC on my TV Monitor through an HDMI cable (audio is played separately, not through the HDMI cable)

PS: The GPU is factory OC ONLY!
PSS: Sorry for my bad english.
