Are these crash dumps anything to worry about?

Final Fantasy XIV. I also notice the game itself has a non bsod directx related crash that happens now and then and it never happened on my older considerably weaker laptop
 
as far as i know yes. Also I JUST had another BSOD and I wasnt even playing a game only thing I was doin it watching a video on facebook while another video was paused on youtube. so now we know the game isnt causing it
 
Oops sorry @Antoine.

Let's stress test your GPU. Download Furmark and install it.

FurMark Setup:
- If you have more than one GPU, select Multi-GPU during setup
- In the Run mode box, select "Stability Test" and "Log GPU Temperature"
Click "Go" to start the test (Looks like it's "BURN-IN test" now)
- Run the test until the GPU temperature maxes out - or until you start having problems (whichever comes first).
NOTE: Set the alarm to go off at 90ºC. Then watch the system from that point on. If the system doesn't display a temperature, watch it constantly and turn it off at the first sign of video problems. DO NOT leave it it unmonitored, it can DAMAGE your video card!!!
If the temperature gets above 100ºC, quit the test - the video card is overheating.
- Click "Quit" to exit
What you are looking for:
- excessive heat from the GPU (report back with anything over 90ºC)
- problems with the video display (picture is distorted or jumbled, picture turns black, etc)
- problems reported by the program (I haven't seen this, but "just in case")
 
been preoccupied as or late. Havent been in a situation where I can let my laptop run while actively monitoring it while its doing what its doing. I can say I havent seen a BSOD since the last time I posted but I also havent been gaming that heavily lately either
