While playing Grand Theft Auto V or any intensive 3D game, the screen will show a solid color before BSOD. I would really appreciate any help!

I discovered the solution to this problem. The first was that I had two sets of RAM from different manufacturers, and I took out one of the sets and reset the RAM timings in the BIOS. The second was that the video card was going beyond the core clock settings, so I underclocked the card by -150mhz and that keeps the card at base clock of 915 anytime the card get pushed to maximum. I finally locked the FPS to 60. Now I haven't had a crash in over an hour. Temps appear normal across all the boards and the system seems stable.
