Drivers generally don't cause heat problems, the heat would be due to the card being overclocked Clock it down a little or go LC . I Would check for sure that the temperatures are fine, and if Heat is not the issue, then just update/reinstall your drivers to the nearest stable release

1280 is a fairly high overclock. It probably doesn't have to do with heat or drivers. Your gpu just isn't stable at those speeds. Maybe an unlocked voltage bios would keep it stable but would also void the warranty.

Have you over-volted the card? that could be an issue? Plus try reinstalling anyways, i had some issues which that fixed.

If it's just crashing randomly due to overclocks, then you need to increase the voltage going in.
