Hi everyone.

i need little help here

i have been getting the same issue with alot of games ,
"Display driver stopped responding and has recovered"

in random timing on these games : Overwatch / GTAV / Thewitcher 3 , and more
i did check for the drivers / temperatures they are fine
cpu : i7 6700K 4.00ghz
motherboard : gigabyte z170x-gaming 3
rams : 8gb
gpu : Gigabyte gtx770 4gb OC
powersupplie : GZ-EHS50A-C2 (500W).

every game run smooth with good fps ,
i did check for the gpu requirements it says 600w , could this be my issue here ?

Psu could very well be thr issue. That psu is poor quality and likely delivering dirty power causing system instability. A good quality 520-550w psu would be plenty.

A good 520w psu like the Seasonic S12II or M12II will have plenty of power for those specs. Gpu manufactures tend to pad requirements to account for low quality units that can't put out the wattage they advertise where it counts(12v rail). If you want to get a larger unit to make sure go right ahead it wont hurt anything(except maybe your wallet) :).
