    Try down clocking the VRAM and see if it continues. That's when I get those kinds of errors on my cards.

    Try a clean install? I've had BSOD issues with AMD beta drivers in the past that no amount of anything fixed except doing a clean install all together. The other option would be that you do have an intel system so try running the igpu for a few and see if you still have the BSOD issues?

    as a suggestion : take the side of the case off and point a domestic house fan in it... I know it's not long term.... just see if the issue utterly goes away with a few thousand cubic metres of fresh air per minute ;-)

    If it does at least you know it's heat and maybe someone else can use the card in a diff PC with more airflow to test it for you?

    From memory that card used up to 140W, and that's a fair amount of heat. That 1050 will use max of 75W I think so it'll be a lot cooler and less of a drain on the PSU

    Thanks for following up on this, we can now breathe a collective sigh of relief. Dead GPU fans, dammit
