Cycles crashes on rendering any scence on GPU across multiple versions

Rendering any scene on GPU (including default cube) will crash a few seconds in, but only when launched through the ui. If I start the render through command prompt, it does not crash. Ui elements will black out or go blank during render before crash. Very frustrating since I can not get error messages for the command line. Render settings don’t seem to matter provided the render lasts more than a few seconds.

Specs:
GTX 1070, recent drivers

Custom 2.78 build from Graphicall (with pixar shader)
