On to the problem.

Whenever I open games like Battlefield 4/1 and Rainbow Six Siege, games that are graphically intensive, the game ends up freezing and crashing.
Uninstalling the NVidia HD audio driver allowed the games to run for significantly longer before, sadly, still crashing. When Rainbow Six crashes in event viewer there is an event that says that the display driver has been reinitialized. No such event is shown for BF1/4. This is the event viewer log for the BF1 crash:

Faulting application name: bf1.exe, version: 1.0.50.50197, time stamp: 0x5988deb2

I have tried:
Reinstalling the games
Reinstalling origin/uplay
Reinstalling display drivers
Using DDU and installing clean drivers
Reinstalling windows

Yet the crashes continue. In lower intensity games im getting some regular frame drop as well (Overwatch/CSGO), is this normal with this kind of system? Im willing to try anything to get this machine working correctly again like it did for the first month or two.

Found this on Microsoft's website.

Apparently it's due to an issue with the external hardware devices. You could disconnect all the external devices except keyboard and mouse and try installing the Operating System.
 
The list of hardware errors will be present in the %WINDIR%\Inf\Setupapi*.log file with errors
You could temporarily disable the antivirus and install
You could perform clean boot to check whether any third party application is conflicting.

Perform a clean boot
Note If the computer is connected to a network, network policy settings may prevent you from following these steps. We strongly recommend that you do not use the System Configuration utility to modify the advanced boot options on the computer unless a Microsoft support engineer directs you to do this. Doing this may make the computer unusable.
a.            Log on to the computer by using an account that has administrator rights.
b.            Click Start
Collapse this imageExpand this image, type msconfig.exe in the Start Search box, and then press ENTER to start the System Configuration Utility.
Collapse this imageExpand this imageIf you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click Continue.
c.            On the General tab, click Selective Startup, and then click to clear the Load startup items check box. (The Use Original Boot.ini check box is unavailable.)
d.            On the Services tab, click to select the Hide all Microsoft services check box, and then click Disable all.

Note Following this step lets Microsoft services continue to run. These services include Networking, Plug and Play, Event Logging, Error Reporting, and other services. If you disable these services, you may permanently delete all restore points. Do not do this if you want to use the System Restore utility together with existing restore points.
e.            Click OK, and then click Restart.

Speccy was just detecting it wrong I guess.

Underclocked GPU by 200 MHz, crashes even faster for some reason.
 
What about GPU temperatures? Do you monitor those?

Can you post screenshot from MSI afterburner hardware monitoring window (when gaming/crashing) with graphs from:
gpu usage/temperature, cpu usage/temperature, ram usage, pagefile usage.
It should look similar to this:
