As Hyburnate says, I really wouldn't risk a BIOS flash unless you HAD to.

Do you use Afterburner? If I was you, I'd try bumping the volts ever so slightly on your card, may well stop the random crashing.
 
I really think it might just need a nominal bump in volts. The Classified runs ~100MHz faster than the stock card, and I've found the sometimes the default voltage on the factory OC'd cards is a little low (and rears it's head under intensive gaming such as BF3).

absolute tosh, it's really simple to flash a gfx card BIOS and if u make a backup of the original BIOS there really is next to no risk. The risk would come if u use a modded BIOS with clocks that ur card cant handle. Worst case scenario if u find the new BIOS causes problems and won't let you boot to DOS prompt, run ur gfx card in the second PCIE slot (if u have one) with a working card in the first slot and flash it back to the original BIOS.

This is for all EVGA cards, not just the 570 Classified. We let the users choose what fan speeds they would like to run rather than stick with the limits that are imposed by default.
 
thanks for all your comments! its very much appreciated! :)
I have now tried the uping the voltage through after burner and i have updated the bios and its still pretty much the same :/
just gonna have to wait to see what the next patch for BF3 brings i guess :(
