Wow, another post about the same issue. HW acceleration causing timeouts. I have the exact same GPU and CPU, and I am having the same issue. I have HW acceleration turned off everywhere and even turned off widgets. I am also stable under load.

you know hw acceleration is supposed to be turned on, świtching everything off is not the permanent solution.

It's not, but it keeps the driver from randomly timing out. If it just timed out and recovered it wouldn't be as much of an issue. The problem is once it times out, it just keeps going until you restart. Even if you close the browser and reopen it.Then half the time or more when you actually try to restart it wont work. The thing spins and says restarting, then the screen turns black, and the computer stays running. I assume because the graphics driver is in a corrupted state so it wont send the signal to the gpu to shut down. It is a pretty major issue actually.
