I hope i could get some help here on figuring out what the issue is. Im thinking one of my graphics cards are failing but im not 100% sure. So i was playing bf3 last night and after about 30 minutes my computer locked up and the screen went black. I lost my DVI connection and about 10 seconds later the computer restarted itself. After it started back up i tried to run bf3 again and it locked up on the loading screen. After a hard reset i launched the game again and everything was fine for the 2 hours i played.
 
Now today i start bf3 up again and play one match with no issues. I start my second round and about half way though the computer locks up and does the same thing that happened last night. Played for about an hour total. When it locked up and restarted itself the computer didnt give me any driver crash errors or BSOD just restarted itself like everything was normal. I have both my cards clocked up to 1200 but have had them set at that since the day i got them. Top card i bought on 5/29 and the bottom one on 6/13. I have a 1200w Corsair psu so i know there getting plenty of juice. The top card never went over 61c and the bottom one never went over 59c so i know its not a temp issue. My room is a ice box from my AC so i never have any temp problems. The cpu also is clocked to 4.3hz but never went over 49c. 
 
I went in the computer and found my crash dump reports, but to be honest i dont know 100% what im looking at. But from the parts i can understand seems like a issue with one of my cards. But if someone knows how to read these let me know what you think. Thanks

    If you are overclocking your cards, try running stock and see what happens.

    I don't know a ton about crash dumps but it looks like it's Nvidia driver related.  
     
    Try what Arestavo said and run the cards at stock clock to see if the issues goes away.   If it doesn't try increasing the power a couple notches and test again. 
     
    You can also try cleaning the drives off and reinstalling.

    You didn't say which driver you were using. If it's the beta, try the 301.42 WHQL driver, it works good for me. When these 600 series boards start to die they will work fine again if you knock the core clock down about 10 MHz. Then they'll work for about a week before you'll have to knock it down another 10 and then another 10 until you're back at stock and the board finally goes "belly up" for good.

    Im using 301.42 driver. I just tried both cards one at a time for about a hour each and didnt have any issues, i left the clock on both when i ran them one at a time. Im going to go test it out again in SLI and see what happens.

    Well i did a clean install on the drivers, brought my cards back down to stock and tested bf3 for about an hour and havent had a issue yet. Just played bulletstorm for 2 hours and trine 2 for about a half an hour in 3D and that games uses like 85-90% of the cards and didnt have an issue. Im starting to think it has something to do with bf3 though. The more i research the issue the more i hear the same thing happening. I wont know if its resolved until i put some more time in bf3 though. But im hoping for the best.
