I've recently gotten a new computer and I've been playing games for about 1-2weeks no problem but just recently after about 20mins-2hrs of playing RUST my screen freezes and goes black for 3seconds and then recovers with this/or a similar message "Display driver NVIDIA windows kernel mode driver stopped responding and successfully recovered"
It's not a overheating problem it goes to about 60-68 degrees while gaming.
I have overclocked my graphics card if that has anything todo with it, it's possible i am new to overclocking and i might have messed up my card i'm not sure.
I've also limited the games fps to 60, it usually plays at 100, not sure if that's an issue with a 60hz screen
Things I've tried:
Giving my game more dedicated ram
Changing Physx default from GPU to CPU
Increase power limit on the Overclock
Change GPU fans speed to cool down faster when it gets to 50-55 degrees
