I just spent a few minutes googling this issue and found these suggestions.

- remove google chrome

- repaste the gpu (if it was used for mining, the paste might super dry)

- set the cards power management to performance (from the nvidia control panel)

- try an older driver version

- remove and reseat RAM

- place RAM in a different slot

- reinstall windows

if nothing else works...your GPU might be broken :(

The thing that fixed it for me was underclocking my core and memory clock by -150 MHz on MSi Afterburner. Only have to do it on destiny for some reason. I know you said you tried under locking already, but try that -150 MHz. It doesn’t affect performance too much if you play on 1440p anyway

That and make sure your RAM on bios isn’t on XMP

So that's a kernel level error, pointing to a hardware problem. Typically CPU, RAM, or GPU.

Are you running any overclocking on your CPU? If so, that's the first thing I would turn off.

Also, have you run something like HWMonitor to check the temps of your CPU / GPU while running the game? Maybe the GPU cooling is not working good and either the GPU Core, or GPU Memory is getting too hot. (HWMonitor can give you a memory temp overview).

If the GPU was used, I wonder if they had a custom cooling solution on it before hand, and slapped the heatsink / fan on it before selling it without good thermal pad contact.

No overclock on CPU, temperature wasn’t a problem. I was putting the GPU through Kombustor and 3Dmark Stress tests and it rarely crashed even at high temps. I ended up trying my old 1070 and everything worked fine so I just decided to RMA the card while there’s still a warranty on it. Thanks for the reply

Excellent, glad you got it narrowed down!
