Hey, guys, I've got a highly frustrating issue with my 870m. The title says it all, the driver version 353.30 is constantly crashing and recovering when i try to play newer games.
The games which cause crashes the most include GTA V, Far Cry 4 and Prepar3d V2.5 (time to crash varies, P3D has run for 11 hours straight before with no issues), however older games such as bioshock infinite, GTA IV, L.A. Noire, Far Cry 3 etc... Have no issues whatsoever in running for two, three, four hours at a time with no issues!
With it being an 870m, it is running in a laptop, albeit plugged in to the wall. The laptop is an MSI GS70 stealth pro (i7 4700HQ, 16GB, 870m) if this helps... Could it be that even plugged into the wall and using the battery to give it an extra juice boost as and when it needs it, the GPU just isn't getting enough power to keep going? Or could it just be a long standing issue with laptop GPU's? I've read up on different forums citing the aforementioned issues but i thought i'd ask here where the majority of the experts are.
