New graphics card new problems, Nvidia GT 710 2GB

I actually did an upgrade and kept all my stuff and it still solved my problems o.O

I guess on to the windows 10 forums! if I revert back to windows 7 for any reason though ill be sure to come back here

Is it against the forum rules to run a sweepstake on when he'll be back :)?

aaaand im back... Was having issues with unrelated things (graphics card issue was not even close to the problems i was having on windows 10.. programs left and right having problems software-wise and files not being found

so im back to windows 7.. i was able to still revert back to windows 7 after the time it said.. because it never seemed to count down..
now im back with the latest graphics card drivers and the same issues...
I have less problems when I revert to integrated graphics but almost no openGL or directX support (and its VASTLY slower in minecraft although still playable on the settings i usually play at... 6 chunks view distance and all fancy settings in default minecraft-window size.. not a smooth 60FPS+ but not below 30FPS all the time either.

i have no idea what I can possibly do to fix this problem other than trying to send the graphics card back or getting a different one.
it says on the website it only takes 19W of power which is hardly anything at all so i strongly doubt its my PSU now.

as well as the problems happening in completely bland scenarios.. for example.. opening a new tab in chrome.. watching a non-HD youtube video not even in fullscreen..

yet I can play minecraft with 100% GPU usage for hours on end.
The problem is almost certain to happen when watching LONG youtube videos but it doesnt matter what quality the video im watching is in.. And the audio crackling issue is certain to happen if i have DWM/aero off and im watching a youtube video with the taskbar showing or non-hid.. except if i open the start menu with it shown it stops.. its like its just some weird quirk of this GPU or something.. Wish it could be solved but theres no updated bios or anything for this GPU.. and ive tried decreasing the clock and raising the voltage slightly.. and even doing the opposite and theres literally no effect no matter what i do to do anything.

I dont get any logs of what the "nvidia driver stopped responding and recovered successfully" says so I have no idea where the problem is even happening at. but its only when i do VERY specific actions. but its not all the time either. its a 50/50 chance of happening basically.. I could do something 5 times in a row and have no problem.. Or do it 5 times in a row and have a crash every time. its completely random when it decides to do it. (for the display driver crashing i mean)

sorry for crazy long post i am quite a typer but at least im detailed.

and for the audio crackling It doesnt matter what kind of audio im using from my computer either.. onboard sound drivers. headphone jack. speaker jack.. wireless Bluetooth adapter.. it absolutely doesnt matter it still happens.

nope i used the rollback feature in windows 10 which lets you revert back to windows 7 up to 10-30 days after upgrade but it was still showing as an option even after 30 days so I thought i might as well go for it since i was having worse issues not related to my graphics card on windows 10

SHOW ME! If its on amazon i can get it next month or so.

Although it'd only be about 2-6x faster than my GT 710 2GB super-overclocked???

My GT 710 2GB is super overclocked to 1400mhz stable core. and 1200mhz stable memory.
Seems like its twice as fast as stock. Temperature doesn't even change by a single degree even with an insane overclock like this. stock is 954mhz core and 800mhz memory clock

Also the number of display driver "stopped responding and recovered" Hasn't changed at all from stock clocks compared to overclocked. So I guess i get a bit of a gain and no loss when overclocking it.
