I've found that simply having Afterburner installed would cause bluescreens on my Maxwell card, even if no settings were altered. Although many people are blaming TDR issues in Nvidia's recent drivers, so who knows. Either way, Afterburner is a hog, has terrible UI and plenty of unneeded features (for me :). Other similar apps, like EVGA Precision appear to be re-skins of the exact same codebase.
