Back agian with my first day old GTX 1070 build that played games fine for an hour or two and then kept crashing every time i try to play a game or run benchmarks.
Things I tried:
clean driver install with DDU
Reinstalled windows
Disabled Realtek audio drivers (read some where it could be the culprit)
Used old drivers (currently using 368.81)
Checked power cables and reseated the card
Also tried most of this with windows anniversery update but I am currently on stock windows
So i tried to trouble shoot with heaven benchmark to see when and why im getting crahses. Sometimes it crashes just the program and other times its BSOD.
Anyway I noticed the GPU clock was 1975 Mhz in heaven, way above its base 1500 and OC 1715. I read online that Underclocking can help sometimes so i downloaded EVGAs tool and tried that but didnt do it any good. I tried to mess around in the power settings in Nvida control panel but again that didnt change anything. I havent tried another PCI slot, would that be harmful in anyway?
Is there anything else i can do before i return this thing? I really dont want to return another item, already did it to the Mobo but i guess i suck at this buliding thing lol.
It works completely fine outside of games. I can stream netflix, watch videos, play stuff on extremly low settings and resolution.
Heres some screenshots a second or two before it crashed with the monitoring tools up

As you can see it doesnt really get hot either. Im stumped and dont really know where else to go from here.
Specs:
I5-6600K
Cryorig H7
G-skill 16 GB 3000
ASUS Z170 Pro gaming
ASUS Dual GTX 1070
EVGA G2 650W
Samsung EVO850 500 GB
Nothing is OCed, everything is stock as can be.
