Hi.
Let me first introduce myself. I am a doctor from Odisha, India with a craze for Gaming PCS.
 
My workstation config:
Asus P9X79E-WS
i7-4960x
16GB GSkill 3000MHz
2 x EVGA 980Ti Kingpin
Corsair AX1500i
Corsair H100i
OCZ Revodrive 350 (As Boot device)
 
I previously had a pair of EVGA 780Ti which worked well till i thought of replacing them with the 980Ti Kingpin's.
After install and system reinstall , it runs fine for some time and then shows Nvidia drivers crashing and restarting. Then comes  BSOD with errors like DPC Watchdog & Video TDR failure and restarts.
I have reinstalled several times with both Win10 and Win7 but cant get it fixed.
 
Please help.

Hello and welcome to the Forums!
 
Have you enabled SLI in the Nvidia Control Panel? If so, with certain Asus boards they have an iGPU function in the BIOS that can conflict with SLI and may be causing the problem. You may want to disable this feature and see if that fixes your issue. Also, try to run the cards individually to see if you can isolate the issue with a single card.


Sir,
I have enabled SLi in Nvidia control panel.
As far as i know , i have scoured the BIOS but have not found the iGPU option.
4g decoding for SLI is enabled in BIOS

There's is no iGPU on high-end chipsets like the X79 he's running
 
What he should do is test each card on it own, if each pass then the next logical thing to do is check the PSU
