    I did a thread long time ago about having issues with blue screens! I did the whocrashed program and found out it was the amd drivers, i did a clean install and stock clevo drivers, I still get bsod while watching movies or browsing! its totally random! I dont have any heating issues, I monitor my temps, the highest I have seen is 79C! This is really annoying for a high end laptop.

    I moved to AMD for the cheaper upgrade for gpu and now I am not so happy. I get good performance out of the gpu, but it just gives me random blue screen! so
    1) anyone has any idea about this?
    2) Is this the deal with 6970M overall?
    3) I am thinking of moving to 7970M in Nov, I am considering spending the extra cash on Nvidia for the better drivers?
    Thanks guys!
