P775TM1-G GPU Issues

Hi,
I'm using a Clevo Laptop from my country's retailer Monster. It has a factory overclocked 1070 GPU and a 9700K.
2 weeks ago I made them clean and repaste the laptop. I came back and tried some gpu heavy apps and when using the GPU %100 it boosts and the driver crashes because of power loss/voltage I think. I tried reinstalling windows, installing drivers from clevo's official site etc.

The gpu stutters first then turns the app down after 5 seconds into the game/program (furmark/heaven benchmark). I tried the game CS:GO and when I unlock the fps it immediately crashes in game.

When I underclock -75mhz to 1070 non-overclocked clocks it runs normal generally.

What can I do before giving it back for technical service to solve it on my own?

 

That not how you lower temps. By cutting mhz. Its undervolting the cpu offset and cache offset. Use throttlestop for that! There is a guide and help can be obtained by reading through this topic: https://www.notebookcheck.net/How-t...ife-The-ThrottleStop-Guide-2017.213140.0.html

@unclewebb is a great guy and he developed throttlestop and he can help ya understand the whole concept of undervolting to lower temps thing. To lower gpu temps you can use msi afterburner and this great guide from @Mr Fox :

 

Thank you for your reply but,

My temps are fine, the card is not crashing because of temps but power (the overclock is factory). Just tried lowering the clock to NVIDIA suggested ones instead of the factory overclock for testing and it didn't crash. The thing I'm asking is how can I resolve this without messing with gpu settings. It wasn't crashing until I made my retailer repaste and clean the gpu/cpu.

 

Sounds like a thermal pad might be off a bit.

Some thermal pads look like this (one doesn't cover all the surface and the other, the one under the heatpipe has no thermal pad (maybe not contacting the pipe too)
Does this looks like the issue?

 

Those are the inductors so much less important.
