My card is a 1060 3gb SuperClocked version and recently almost every game is crashing when using the factory clock speeds, the ones that don't crash are games where I can cap the fps count like Overwatch.
 
There's also some visual glitches in some games before they crash, a bunch red marks pop in the screen.
 
Using MSI Afterburner to lower the clock speed by about 100mhz or enabling debug mode on the nvidia control panel stops the crashes.
 
I tested the card on a complete diferent system that has a more powerful PSU but the crashes kept happening.
 
So what should I do? Just roll with it or could this be a sympton that my card is faulty? 
 
EDIT: I did DDU the nvidia drivers and even tested some older ones but got the same crashes.

    Definitely.
     
    If it still has a warranty, EVGA will replace it.
