I have this problem, and I have a GTX 1070

Do you use intel(Hd or UHD) graphics?

All those errors mean that either you GPU driver crashes or if you use laptop with Intel CPU and NVidia GPU means that laptop for some reason switched to Intel integrated GPU.

Try update drivers. If oyu have a laptop make sure to set up power management settings in the way to your laptop always gonna use NVidia GPU, make sure you play with you laptop plugged to AC at least, it less likely for laptop to conserve power by switching to Intel GPU.
