    Hey, i don't know why but my laptop keeps getting BSoDs after playing for a while, sometimes nvlddmkm.sys error and sometimes other ones,
    Normally it's the video_tdr_failure one with nvlddmkm.sys

    But after whole day of trying fixes that don't work i figured by monitoring my GPU temp that it only happens as soon as my GPU hits 72°C
    I tried every single fix but it just doesn't work, but after monitoring the temp i saw that at 72°C it happens Everytime and it doesn't go past that, but if i play since the start with the fans on 100% and i don't let the temp get to 72°C then it doesn't happen?
    Can anyone tell me why that is and how i might fix it? O already contacted Amazon for a replacement as i doubt it's supposed to be like that... And i don't want to wait all the time to ship it back and wait for another one so i would just really like to fix it by myself somehow,
    Oh and the laptop is one day old, so yeah, it doesnt want to work since it came out of the box ...

    The factory settings from Aorus control center are at 88°C 56% fan speed and that would be impossible cause at 71°C the fan speed should be at 37% as the software preset is for this laptop...
    So i would really appreciate if anyone has experience with this issue and how i might fix it ?!?

    Try use laptop on flat surface if you have cooling pad etc.

    Yeah everything indicates that it's a gpu hardware problem, as it is not normal for a laptop GPU to get to 70°C max 74,°C and totally crash and always get a BSoD after trying all windows versions possible and combinations of drivers etc
    I will most likely ask for a replacement
