Check you have all latest drivers/service packs/hotfixes etc. If you do and it still does it, try and swap the graphics card for another one and see if you get the same problem. If not, the card may be up the swanny, if so it's more likely to be the mobo.

BSODs tend to mean RAM errors, especially on DFI boards - they are VERY picky about RAM settings. As a quick test, drop the RAM:CPU ratio to 180% (if it already is, try lower still). If this fixes it then your RAM setting need some tweaking. Or you can leave it there because with A64 RAM speed isn't important anyway.
Alternatively, tweak the RAM voltage up a notch or two.
