    I just got my new gaming laptop, and so far have not been able to get it to be stable underload at all!.

    I have tried a number of things (New drivers, underclocking the GPU, changing power saving settings, ectect) but can not get it too handle a load for longer then 5 mins (Deus Ex crashes at the menu screen in under 2 mins on High, MWO will not load at all unless all the settings are on medium or below).
    I know this is not a thermal problem (GPU does not exceed 80c), but for the life of me I cant work it out.

    I got this laptop 4 days ago, (After returning an MSI due to dead Pixels), so want to try what I can to get it working, but dont want to waste time if I need to return it.

    Can someone please give me a list of stuff to do to try and get this thing stable (I'm at the point of giving up and getting a bloody desktop again).

    PS: Its the One with the 1070, unsure if thats VT or VS.

    Thanks,
    Wofen

    I know these GL502 w/ 1070 run really hot.
