I have a GTX 980 that has been working fine for a year. When I turn on my system GPU Tweak 2 opens up. I click OC Mode or Gaming Mode and switch off the 0db fan(I like the fans running to keep it cool, I'm not really sure why just a habit) and I game or do work or whatever. Well today I turned my system on like normal but when I got the the part where I switch off the 0 db fan setting my system froze and gave me a blue screen. I reproduced it twice and got these BSODS:

PAGE FAULT IN NONPAGED AREA

SYSTEM PTE MISUSE

Here is some WhoCrashed info to elaborate on that:

I have tried:

Re-seating GPU(To my surprise my GPU was in a 8x slot not a 16x slot, I have since moved it to a 16x slot. However this issue did not occur immediately after this change. It occurred today(4 days after the change))
Re-installing GPU TweakII
MemTest86

What I am trying right now: Re-setting CMOS and Re-installing Nvidia Drivers
