Well I was looking for some opinions on this.
Basically I was testing Win 8 and all of a sudden this happened (twice I might add) while I was on the desktop:

The video above was the second time. The first time, the driver just reset saying that it had crashed but this time it just stayed like that and not even the reset switch on my machine wanted to work. So I had to hold down my power button.
So my question is, driver or is something like the memory going faulty?
Also I was not overclocking on it at that point which I found strange that this would happen. The annoying thing is that its only a week old. I'm now in Win 7 after rebooting and I'm awaiting the same thing to happen again. Right now everything seems fine and normal and I can go about things normally for now, until it happens again.
Any help would be appreciated.
