PC crashes during games. Possible GPU problem?

Hi community,

I am currently running 2 GTX680 cards in SLi. When I start a game, within two minutes everything freezes and my PC crashes. Occasionally I'll get a stop error 116 (blue screen), but not always. I understand that this stop error is in relation to video drivers or the GPU, so I'm worried one of my cards might be on its way out.

In device manager I can see both 680 cards. After my machine crashes and comes back up, occasionally I only see one card in device manager. When I see only one card in device manager, my games run and do not crash.

Are there any tips or advice on this problem please?

Thank you.
