I'm mostly copying what I seem to find online as honestly, most of this talk is still above my knowledge level. I know there are different features with certain NVidia series of cards, but I'm not sure what they are. Since the big card of the say seems to be the 1080, I've been running with the 10 series in mind, as well as what I find in reviews and such.

Here's my annoying game list, from most trouble to least.

NieR: Automata - this is the game where I need to load it twice, restart my comp, load it again, cross my fingers and rain dance and hope I get above a 13 fps. I do run a user made menu thing to change some graphics settings around, but it's still haphazard to play.

Dark Souls 3 - didn't used to be an issue but it is now. I can barely maintain a frame rate in the 20-30s, which I need for online play. I have the graphics settings and resolution turned down to roughly medium and I still get booted at times. The area of the map I'm in does seem to matter.

Guild Wars 2: Path of Fire - was running alright until the PoF expansion came out. That raised the specs needed and now I have a diagonal line across my screen where the picture will cut or wobble a little bit. I've turned some settings down. My frame rate is usually okay but it doesn't look at nice as it used to.
