What are you doing when it crashes?
What is in the event log?

Try reinstalling the chipset drivers.

Reinstall the drivers, use Driver Sweeper to remove whatever is left and then install the new drivers.

What are the temps?

Try to reset it (remove it and plug it back onto the slot)

If the problems still persist, then RMA would be the next/last solution.

Event logs are in computer management then system logs, application logs, etc

seeing how this all started when you put a different card in, first suspect would be the drivers, so do the full uninstall using driver sweeper in safe mode,then get the latest drivers or even try the ones before the latest.
check the temps on the card, make sure it is staying cool, it could be temps.
if neither of those then try to downclock the card, still no luck then sounds like an rma.

Temps are fine they are around 56 when idle and only goto about 80 at full load. Ive also tried many different drivers and i re-install the os everytime i do install new ones. Im using the 10.3 beta drivers right now.
