I ve tried that already,using 3D Mark and my GPU Temps never reach over 75.
The Tech added a high quality thermal paste everywhere , and it was his first thought of stressing my computer with Marks to see if it closes from heat.
I have 2 coolers , the laptop's a beast about cooling.
(Thermal paste added 3-4 months ago and Laptop cleaned thoroughly)
Dont remember the exact versions , old and new ones. bottom line same issue. I came here for the ultimate solution.
Is the GPU properly checked for compatibility?
Compatibility does NOT mean the problem has to occur immediately.
I have zero idea about that seriously, but I've seen a video where they installed on the same model Alienware m18xR1 Nvidia Geforce 780m SLI , so if thats the best I suppose the system do supports my GPU since its the GTX 675m.
The difference is the GPU, if the 780m SLI supports the same model doesn't mean the 675m supports it too.
I really dont know then. Is there any way to know? should I change my GPU? If they are compatible still what is the solution to the issue... so many questions.
The reason for upgrading your GPU was? Gaming?
A way to know is checking Nvidia for it.
What did the technician say about compatibility?
I do not know the reason for the upgrade, it was upgraded from the person who sold me the Laptop. (maybe it was to provide a nice gaming experience which does actually although it has its toll -> the BSODs.)
The tech said there is no way to know if they are is compability. -> LOL
A way to know is checking Nvidia for it. -> How? can you provide a link to see for myself.
I am really curious why that guy upgraded the GPU, normally you cannot upgrade a GPU and have a stable laptop.
Just came up in my mind.
