Nvidia GTX 670 2GB OC Driver crash

Hello there,
I have just gotten my new computer and after I got everything installed and working, I was not even 15 mins into playing Minecraft when I got the error "Nvidia display driver (version number) has stopped responding and recovered"
it happens in every game, at a random time, I can be 3 hours into a Borderlands 2 session and then it will just crash.
It even happens when Im doing nothing on the desktop with only skype and Google Chrome open.
Now I know you have seen about a million of these asking the exact same question.
And I'm as frustrated as you are.

My specs are:

CPU: Intel Core i7-3820 3.6Ghz LGA 2011
Motherboard: ASRock x79 Extreme3 LGA2011 DDR3 USB3.0
Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws-X 16GB(2x8GB) DDR3-1600
Video Card: Gigabyte GV-N670OC-2GD 2GB GTX
Cooler: Thermaltake CL-W0216 Water 2.0 Pro Universal Liquid Cooler
SSD: OCZ Agility3 120GB SATA SSD
HGG: Seagate 3TB ST3000DM001 7200 SATA 6Gb/s
PSU: Thermaltake ToughPower XT 875W

I have tried all the drivers for my card, even the beta ones.
Tried several fixes including a regedit "fix"

Every forum I see with the same problems go un fixed and the threads die without any reports of the problem getting fixed.

Any ideas would be great..all I want to do is play the games I havent been able to on my old laptop.
