For the last two weeks or so my m16r2 has been having an issue where for hours at a time my gpu usage will max out regardless of what load its being put under. Additionally, Every time I press the f1 key or enter one of the overclocked fan modes, my screen goes dark for a momment with event viewer listing the error as: The description for Event ID 14 from source nvlddmkm cannot be found

I've tried just about anything I can think of to fix this including:

Updating my gpu drivers

Using ddu for a clean install of a new/old driver

Reinstalling my version of windows

Changing power settings particularly link state power management

Turning on and off HAGS

Cleaning my fans and outlets

running memory diagnostic

disabling my integrated graphics in device manager.

Changing my refresh rate/unplugging my monitor.

Please if anyone can offer any help into this, I just can't seem to fix this problem. This is a relatively new pc that I've taken solid care of keeping well cooled and cleaned. It doesn't feel like a hardware issue because the PC runs perfectly fine at times, but that could be wishful thinking
