 So after a little bit of trial and error on a chain of BSODs, I think I've got a bad ~factory overclocked~ gtx570. A quick GPU stress test on OCCT crashes my system at (an approximated)75C. (No bluescreen, but a minidump file. dxgkrnl.sys, dxgmms1.sys, ATKDispLowFilter.sys) Are there any other tools to test defects outside of benchmarks? Should I RMA this card, or try lowering the clockspeed with the manufacturer's software? (That'd be Asus SmartDoctor, in this case.) It's worth noting, Aida64 and 3DMark 11 both run tests without issue, only OCCT can 'replicate' these regular under-load crashes..
