0x0116 BSOD caused by dxgkrnl.sys

I have been crashing ever since I installed a new EVGA 980ti. The crashes happen between 3am and 4am. I can game for hours straight with no issues. Not sure if this is a GPU problem or a Windows Bug issue.

Here is my build.

i7 4820k
ASUS Sabertooth x79
EVGA 980ti
16Gb 1600mhz Ram
Windows 7 x64 Pro

Here is a SS of the .dmp

Well, error is a dx one so it could be either, but i would lean towards the drivers of said GPU...

download and run this: http://www.resplendence.com/whocrashed
it looks at those logs and makes them easier to read
it will tell us what the error log says and might point out a cuprit, but DX normally doesn't act up without something pushing it.

Paste results here if you can't work out cause

Ok, here is what I got.

I also did use DDU and did a clean install of the drivers, both a rollback to a known stable driver and the most current one.

Since both mention the Nvidia driver, its pretty damn clear what cause is. I assume that was before you swapped drivers. Lets see if it fixes it for you.

Colif :

No I did the DDU a while back and the issue still persisted.

Nvidia used to make good drivers, no idea whats happened.

They both refer to Driver version 364.72 which are the latest version currently.

I wish I had a driver version number for you that is safe to use.

Colif :

Yeah this is rackin' my brain. I hope its not a GPU issues, really dont want to go through an RMA process. I guess I will try a handful of drivers until I see a change. What really is interesting is that the crash ALWAYS happens between 3am and 4am.

i don't think its the card, i think its the drivers. too many people have problems with them. Your card latest gen (for a few more months anyway) so drivers should work for it the best.
