Yep, Fire up a game.
start playing and see if you still get the BSOD.

Lets get to troubleshooting.

answer these :-
What are your idle temps?
what are your max temps?
Have you OC'ed the card?
How dusty is the card?
You havent mentioned what PSU you got.

Download this and send me over a screen shot of a more detailed post.

I see.
So you're sure the PSU was functioning with the card before this started happening?
If so.
We can rule out its the card acting up.
but to make sure of that, you have to completely remove AMD drivers using a safe mode method. http://www.wagnardmobile.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=92
Download and run this in safemode, remove everything AMD Related. :)

Then try the fresh installation.

And if it doesnt work.
I must say the card is acting up and you should send it in for warranty claim.


Method 2:
Its to try it out in a new computer, put load on the GPU and see if you get BSOD.
if issue comes, its the card.

I just ran FurMark for about 20 mins and no crash, i think it might be fixed. I will load up a game for about an hour and see if it is fixed. Thanks for all the help mate :)
