Hello!

i hope this is the appropriate section to post this. i have MSI's N580GTX Lightning GPU. i recently upgraded the driver to v310.70. the last driver my GPU was on (one just before the current version), it suffered intermittent display-driver crashes, which i came to know, was reported worldwide on several of nVidia's GPUs. now with this new driver, the PC reboots as well infrequently alongwith driver-crashes. this happens when either booting up the PC (reboots just after everything settles down after the booting, without me doing anything), and/or, while playing an online video, say on youtube. is anyone else facing these issues? am using 'safari' as the browser (if this info could be of any help), which i recently started using for the 1st time after using chrome since long.
 
for me, the crashes are much frequent. in fact, they have become much more frequent after i posted this thread. should i give the card to the service centre for checking/RMA? would they accept it?
