Computer Issues

[Victor Von Doom]

I just recently last Christmas upgraded to a GTX 960 graphics card, since that upgrade, certain games have caused my drivers to crash and some not, which was okay because I played the not more often than the crashers. However, I just reformatted my computer recently, installed clean drivers and just recently every game has started to crash my drivers at some point, i've tried reverting to older drivers which didn't help in the slightest. Checking MSI Afterburner after each crash tells me that my power consumption has skyrocketted to some insanely impossible number.

Help pls

How long did it take for the fans to die?

Don't remember exactly.

it would be variable regardless

I think I remember someone having a problem about this and it might have been related to their PSU? I'm not too sure
