Cut the story short
1070 Ftw2 is playing up
It crashes on WOT while using HD settings but trouble free on SD
Unigine is also trouble free on Extreme HD while Kombustor crashes drivers
Factory settings, primary bios, sufficient cooling
Any ideas?

Tried ddu. fresh install via new drivers, msi afterburner and X1/OC. bios for mobo did nothing either, no change to crashing problem :/
UC didn't help either nor running fans at %100, screwed gpu? doesn't feel like it though
 
Event viewer is basically this:
The description for Event ID 1 from source NVIDIA OpenGL Driver cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer.
If the event originated on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event.
The following information was included with the event:
A TDR has been detected.
The application must close.

Error code: 7
(pid=3004 tid=10288 furmark.exe 32bit)

Fans @ 100% temp reached - 60c
Perhaps PSU might be at fault? 650W seems more than enough though
 
using a watt-o-meter and pc power draw is 220 is aggressive fan curve on furmark bench
setting power targer to 0 draws 140 and seems to be crash free
its either psu which only outputs 200Wish of power or GPU cant handle stress over 70% usage
tempted to order a psu to test
WOT is drawing 100W

Had just run tests limited the power of the card to 75%. Max PC draw was 212W and everything was stable. Once it goes over 220-230W mark it crashes
From what I remember PSU is broken down on few rails, some might not be functional or faulty, causing only 1-2 to run and deliver sufficient power for what I am doing now
Does that sound mad or makes some sense?? :D
 
Tried 2 different PSUs, problem did not go away
Have stipped the card, replaced TIM and its gone. Makes very little sense wonder if the problem is going to come back
