Hi guys, I'm kind of in a bind here. I recently built my first computer and I had been having absolutely no issues without up until September. I've been having constant crashes.

http://puu.sh/lorMX/c92f31a370.png This is my build, my current Nvidia driver is 355.60 and I'm currently running Windows 10.

First it started off intermittently, not very often at all. It would usually happen over prolonged sessions of playing Skyrim. However, its progressively been getting worse and started affecting most games I play. I've been getting crashes when I attempt to play Final Fantasy XIV, Guild Wars 2 and Fallout 4. To describe the crash, there's no BSOD, just a black screen with odd, stuttering noises in my headphones. It would generally happen within 30 minutes of booting the game up, however it seems to be every 5-10 minutes with Final Fantasy XIV.

I've been lucky enough to see it recover through one of these hangs. I don't have a screenshot of the log but it shows a conflict with nvlddmkm driver. So far I've tried all drivers between 352 to the most recent.I'm not really sure what else I can provide in terms of information but I really would like to get this fixed. I've tried about everything I could think of, outside of re-installing my old AMD card.

Any help would be super appreciated.
