BSOD Watchdog Violation 1x133 (possible nVidia)

Recently I have built a 3D rendering station for a client of mine. The machine runs, but crashes about once or twice a day with a BSOD (watchdog violation 1x133. Blue Screen View mentions either nvlddmkm.sys or ntoskrnl.exe as culprit.



Things I have tried so far:

- Clean install Windows 10

- Clean install Windows 7

- DDU removal of graphics drivers

- latest nVidia drivers

- older nVidia drivers

- extensive RAM testing



Specs:

- Asus X99-WS 10G E

- Intel 6850K

- 7x Zotac 1080ti Blower Edition (transformed to water cooling)

- 64GB RAM

- Samsung 960 Pro 512GB (system drive)

- 3x WD Red in RAID 0 (data drive)

- 2x Cooler Master V1200 PSU

- Custom EK watercooling loop

- Obsidian 900D

Any help or insight on this issue would be greatly appreciated, as this issue now causes great delays in my client's workflow.

EDIT: it appears driver verifier caused each of the crashes, what was the reason for using driver verifier?

Driver Verifier was installed to try and troubleshoot the issue, because it seems to be caused by a driver. The BSOD's also occurred prior to installing Driver Verifier.

I have disabled Driver Verifier and will test again, thanks.


EDIT: Got a crash again. New report is enclosed.

The nvidia driver is being blamed, there have been a few updates released which you could try.

Memory dump is no use, can't debug the dump completely due to lack of specific information, that I always see with this specific kind of dumps, which I assume is private.

The next step is to find out which GPU it is about.

It should suffice to disable them.
