    BSOD since upgrading GPU

    I recently upgraded my graphics card to the msi lightning gtx 580 purchased from scan. However, I've started getting the BSOD which says "system service exception" and more frequently so in the last few days. It tends to happen when i'm gaming especially.
    This rarely happened with the ATI 5870 I had previously.

    Any advice on how to troubleshoot would be grateful?

    I've got the corsair 1000w psu. My specs are listed under the avatar.
    It seems to happen with certain games only which is strange (could be the overclocked i7 maybe?)
