about a month ago i bought a 670 off of newegg, it was working perfectly fine until a week ago, the screen goes black and if I'm using my headset the audio is distorted, sometimes the system reboots itself, sometimes i need to do a hard reboot,if the system reboots by itself i get a message saying my system got a bsod, my computer crashes when i play games, sometimes when i load a video on youtube. the fans are turning, its not overheating. i did a fresh install of the drivers, worked a lot longer then before but eventually failed. Anyone else have this problem? is it my video card? is it the drivers? or something else? thanks!

bluescreen view told me these are the files causing the bsod
nvlddmkm.sys
dxgkrnl.sys
dxgmms1.sys

if its a file that causing the BSOD its probably drivers or windows corruption....check the temps on the card while in game (use GPU-Z or something to get actual temps)....Try removing the drivers and then run driver sweeper in safe mode and then install the new ones and see if that helps.
