I just got a new GTX 980 ti, and i was playing a game and the game crashed and said the display driver wasn't responding then when i went to my Geforce experience in my specs it said the graphics card was unknown. Now I did have a slight overclock on the card and i restarted my computer and everything was back to normal but this has happened multiple time please help.
My computer specs are FX 8350 overclocked to 4.7ghz, zotac 980ti amp extreme edition, 16gb ram, 750w PSU.
Thank You

I would say using MSI afterburner and little by little increase the voltage. That PSU is not exactly great its ok, its a tier 3 psu but your not even close to maxing out in terms of wattage. Though you could test to see if the psu is an issue if you could get another psu to test from someone you know or use their rig to test the card itself. But again I would try the voltage tweak first. Then move to testing the psu/card.

What psu do you have? Also have you tried using msi afterburner to adjust the fan speed or tweaking the voltage by a little bit? Could do a test with hwmonitor and see what temps your gpu reaches, see if it goes above 80c. By chance are you using 2 monitors?
