GV-R797OC-3GD Crashes to black screen, no signal from monitor

Hi,

I'm having trouble with my 6 month old 7970 (GV-R797OC-3GD). All of a sudden it started to crash instantaneously when starting any games
(BF3, Bioshock). The crash requires a restart as the monitor goes black and loses signal, however i can still hear the game sometimes. I've tried cleaning the drivers and re-installing the latest ones but nothing has worked. I've had a previous problem like this but a clean re-install fixed everything.

Also sometimes when the game crashes the fan load goes to near 100%?

Any ideas or should I start the RMA process.

Thanks :)
