Especially when games market is stale and previous gen cards play them completely fine at any setting.

(a few "brainstorming" suggestions...)
try reducing the speeds on the 7970 to stock...(yes the are OC'd from the factory but...) then try a clean install of win7 (use another HDD, to make it easy ), if that still causes the problems, test out another Motherboard... (well, 2 7970's are worth at least 1200$, the cost of a new Motherboard is cheap...) try a 64bit os...
