    You have to use the Optimus version for an iGPU system.

    Laptopvideo2go try a set from there. If different sets are getting the error there may be an issue with the hardware.

    Clevo p150sm, i am also going to order new thermal pads for the card, i might have done a bad job covering all spots on the card.

    Take pictures if you are unsure on how good the contact looks.

    I had only one BSOD after i changed the thermal pads to this, and no BSOD all night trough, so i am guessing its working now

    The very top pad and the one above the right screw are the most important pads and I think they are not making contact. These are the ones covering the VRMs and MUST make good contact.

    Take the card out, lay it flat upside down on the heatsink and check that the top pad (and the one to the far right of the one you circled covering the memory) make contact. It's on the edges so should be easy to see.

    It's the VRM chips that are super important.
