Nvidia driver stopped responding

[Bolton7935]

Hi guys losing my mind here I get a black screen and after 5 seconds it back to normal it's says Nvidia driver have stopped responding and have recoverd I've tried everything on the internet that could solve this this does it at random times when gaming or just browsing the net

Now I've tested ram that's fine ran with 3 sticks then back to 6
Tested ssd that's fine
Ran both my cpu and gpu both at stock normally oc
And it still does it I am thinking maybe it's my psu
I've read loads of forums your my last hope before I buy all new as I am sick of it

PC specs

Xeon 5650 @ 4
Gtx 780
12gb of ram
256 ssd
Ocz 1000 watt psu

I am a full custom watercolor loop so trying other cards isn't easy as it's all plumbed in ha

Thanks for you help

It's random might not do it for a couple of hours of heavy gaming then I'll Finnish open web browser and it will do it I can't try another gpu with out dismantling my loop witch I don't fancy doing gpu and cpu are on a loop

Its a evga and still under warranty how could I test to see if it's failing ? Also it's got a full waterblock on it would evga still take it back I am trying to hold out for the next gen cards if I did rma it would have to stick the stock back on but then no PC for a bit I'd go crazy ha ohhhhh the price of ****
