Here is a video of the crash.

After a few hours into a game, this crash occurs. It has done so since 2012, and all through every single driver revision and operating system since. It is definitely a hardware issue.

PCIe timings maybe? Someone said it was due to lack of voltage, tried under clocking the card with no results. I know many of you are going to say RMA it, but Galaxy lost record of my 3 year warranty extension that I registered and refuses to replace it although it was defective when purchased.

Overheating is also not an issue. 22 c idle temps, 60 - 70 load.

Anyone have a possible solution?

Edit:

Solution
If it's a hardware issue, replace the card and see if that helps. Power supply issues can cause this at times, playing around with voltage and PCIe settings are way less likely to fix anything. It should have been returned 3 years ago if it was doing that then.
