Crashing in tf2/csgo

Ever since about a month ago I started crashing in CS:GO. It started occurring around the time the game was updated but I am no longer convinced it has to do with the game since it is happening in TF2 now as well. I have tried drivers 320.49 340.something and the newest 344 drivers. It will work for a while sometimes but then I just crash and after I have the first crash, I seem to repeatedly crash.

I get a black screen and since I changed my TdrDelay registry it has made it so my computer doesn't crash and I can alt tab back in to the game sometimes. Although I often get low fps again after alt tabbing. My sound also crashes almost every single time as well (I have an audio interface, which I have to reset to get sound back).

There was a point where I was just crashing to a black screen and my computer would not even boot past the windows screen until I uninstalled the drivers. The only thing I got to fix it one time was resetting the CMOS.

I don't know how to fix this but it's really frustrating. My card is only 10 months old :(

Please help!

Not saying that this is the issue, but check your cmos battery and make sure it isn't low. A failing cmos battery can affect things like drivers and system performance in general.
