Randomly, when playing games (League of Legends, BF3, APB, not specific to one game) about once every hour or so while playing, my screen will lock up, go black, and then come back. I will get a windows notification that the video card driver has stopped working. Sometimes, this will happen 2-3 times in a row, and I will get a BSOD citing atikmpag.sys
I have tested my memory (5 passes, no errors completed), RMA'd my graphics card for a replacement, and RMA'd my motherboard for a replacement. This didn't solve the problem. The temps are fine, but the fan on my PSU blows at the fan on my graphics card. I'm thinking this might be causing the GPU fan to have to work harder, and causing a lack of circulation. I have 2 slots on the side of my case where I could put 2 120mm fans (already have a top mounted 140mm, and a rear mounted 120mm), but I don't want to spend $40 on fans until I know this would fix it. As I said, the temps remain fine while playing, around 50C-55C.
I have several dump files I could zip and upload, if it would help.
