Latest Nvidia graphics card driver.

Issue
- Computer just freezes after about 24 hours of use. It's not definite. Sound stops, graphic just freezes. Computer, I believe, is frozen. No BSOD or error appears even after the freeze.
- Event Logs reveal nothing. All it says is the computer was unexpectedly restarted. This is because I have to press reset (restart) switch to get out of the freeze.
The computer ran fine for years without a problem. Last time it was upgraded was right when 980 TI GTX came out, so it's been more than a year when it worked fine after the last upgrade.
I even went further and overclocked 0.1GHz higher than my original OC settings (4.5GHz) which it failed stress test, but it fails with BSOD (CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT) so the symptoms are definitely not similar.
It definitely seems to be happening often while playing games, I think. Although I did experience it time to time when I had a media player running (but it was paused for hours).
I really wish I could get you guys more info, but I don't have much.
If you ask for more so you could help me, I would do everything in my power to get you more information.
