I also ran a WhoCrashed and got this info: When it doesn't crash, games run very slowly (faster than on-board graphics, but only at around 10~15fps so not how they should be), and all other times it randomly crashes, sometimes every minute and sometimes every 5 minutes.

I have no clue, and I'm getting full of stress trying to fix it. But the same exact thing is happening with this brand new GPU so I'm thinking perhaps it's a driver issue or something else. This happened a week ago when I first got the GPU, so I RMAd it because I thought it must be a defective GPU. Then it crashed sometimes and my computer would shut down with it. I tried running some Steam games, and it would just crash after a few minutes completely or I'd have to ctrl-alt-delete it. The most common is the screen freezes for a few seconds, shuts off and back on, and I get the error message: "Display driver AMD stopped responding and has recovered." It comes up about once every ten minutes or so (each time it comes up, I have to close the little error message multiple times), whether I'm just in Windows or trying to play a game. When I add the GPU, I get all sorts of problems. Here's a list of the rest of the computer parts I have. When I hook up everything to the motherboard without the GPU, it works fine, but I just can't play any 3D games because they're too slow.

It's the first time I've built a computer, but everything worked fine before worrying about the GPU (Gigabyte AMD Radeon R7 260x).
