Title says it all. After about 20 minutes into every session. The game freezes. Sound keeps playing as if everything's fine, then the game just closes. Looked around in event viewer and found out that the display driver's crashing. looked it up on the forums and no one seems to have a fix for this issue. Just the usual "verify the game cache" and update the drivers.

Specs: i5 4670k: Base clock is 3.40Ghz (OC'd to 4.5Ghz)
Gtx 1070 Minor Overclocking
16GB DDR3 1600Mhz Ram

Any help would be appreciated.

nVlddmkm.sys is an nVidia kernel mode driver. The reason for it ceasing to respond could be numerous, but prime suspects could be fluctuating power with your system being overclocked. Remove overclocking for troubleshooting.

Well I lowered the clock speeds a bit and I've been playing for over an hour or so and the game hasn't crashed since. So I guess this fixed this issue. Didn't really think it was an overclocking issue since I've played a lot of demanding games and never had this error come up before.
nonetheless, thanks for the help :) I appreciate it.
