OK so I am currently using a AMD Radeon 6670 GPU with AMD FX 4170 Quad core 8GB RAM Windows 7. Now 1st issue is my PC keeps randomly Blue screening whether its running a game or just browsing the internet 2nd when i go to update my GPU drivers in the AMD radeon crimson app I click update it starts the installer then says click upgrade then it closes the app nothing else happens and it will not let me open the app again until I restart and i cant tell if it has done anything. 3rd and final I want to upgrade the GPU i know some people will look at my setup and laugh I know its not great but I am having trouble to understand which would be the best GPU for my CPU without my CPU bottlenecking the GPU I dont run big games yet I mainly play Black ops 2 and Devilian but when I play Black ops 2 I get random framerate drops it isnt stable and when I checked to see if my computer could run Black ops 2 it said my computer should handle it easy peasy any help at all would be fantastic. The bluescreen all it says is hardware issue. I live in england my power supply is ATX 12v Model:480 UB 480W and im not worried about price I just want the best for CPU ill provide link for case https://www.vibox.co.uk/kickstart/index/index/id/628

1st issue > ur blue screen reason cud be even dying/faulty hdd or ram...
2nd > use display driver uninstaller and then manually clean install the latest drivers...
3rd > gtx 750ti is a gud option...even 950 is gud...

first suggestion wud be to run ur system on integrated gpu if u have one and check whether u get the bsods...

I can analyze your memory dump from the latest BSOD. At the very least I can help narrow it down to hard/software, at best I can point you to exactly the problem.
Upload it somewhere and post the link. Just a kernel dump is enough usually, I'll let you know if I need more.
