Anyone else having problems with WOW crashing their graphics card?

Ever since Pandaria came out, I have been getting random crashes back to desktop with the message "your display driver has recovered from a serious error" or somesuch. This only started since the patch went live. It can run ok most of the night or it can crash several times in 15 mins. It seems to be a DX11 fault as, once I switched to DX9 it has run faultlessly (albeit with somewhat crappy frame rate) There has been much said on the WOW forums a out it with little or no real input from Blizzard.
Anyone know of a fix yet?
I'm using a GTX580 card and have tried several drivers.
 
I have the same issue with my Sli'd 570's. Was fine until Pandaria, and then the screen would randomly go black for a second and the display driver crashed message would appear.

I have also switched to DX9 and it has been fine since. I do get the occasional drop in frame rates, but it is generally ok so I am not too fussed.

Having said that, I would like to know if Blizzard do manage a fix or some such.
