When I increase my graphics card's speed and begin recording Overwatch, using GeForce Experience Shadow Play, the system freezes or crashes when I open the shadow play menu. It displays a message like "the video card has stopped working." I’m unsure what it means because I only see it briefly when closing Overwatch through Task Manager, as it appears behind the Overwatch window and closes with it.

Maybe your oc isn't fully stable? But why does it only crash when opening shadowplay?

It causes excessive stress on your OC. Also, you didn't specify the GPU model.
