Bill is right it could also be a power issue, whats your power unit?

you could try lower resolutions, graphics settings.

hwi monitor is a great free tool for keeping an eye on temps voltages etc.

If there is power insufficiency, dropping the settings won't help and any instability in a system needs addressing, not avoiding, as it can cause all sorts of issues. If it's the PSU it would need swapping out for a more powerful one.

HW Monitor is great but it won't give you any red flags re power and by the time you have a v-droop you won't be able to see it anyway.

How beefy is your PSU? It should be at least 350W.

Alternatively, could the card be on the way out?

Well I reseated the card, and used a different PCI-e power cable..... Played countless games of PUBG today no issue.....Unlike yesterday where it was occuring every game.

We shall see how it goes.....

i think 350 W won´t be enough, have had a simmilar problem when i have bought my 960Ti.at this time i have been using a 350W PSU and at some Points whilest playing i have had a sudden graphic breakdown.
and when i got me a 650W PSU everything was fine

My light bulbs are more powerful than 350w, for a modern pc you would need at the very least 650w psu
