My setup has two Nvidia GTX 970 cards in SLI. I was using the latest driver for a few days, but I have noticed that after crunching GPUGRID for a short while, the screen will go blank, and stay that way until I power cycle the machine. The blank screen problem would repeat itself consistently after continuing CPUGRID.

My cards are not overclocked, and I know the cooling is adequate with this system. I've since downgraded my driver from 451.67 to 451.48, (clean install) and have so far, been unable to reproduce this issue.

maybe the SLI setup is the problem.

That would be my assumption too. SLI is always troublesome. It takes a while for every new driver to sort out the SLI bugs.
