    Hello everyone!

    Some of you may know an SVP utility ( https://www.svp-team.com/wiki/Download) that allows watching cinema at 60 fps no matter the original fps were. Smooth video all the time. This one is the really tough thing for hardware. So I installed this thing and it asked me to benchmark my pc to set the proper settings according to my performance. But when I launched it, my laptop immediately shut down. Take a look:



    No BSODs, no sounds, it just turned off. I booted my PC back and tried once again same story. Then I've tried the third time and it was okay this time. Then I tried this bench from time to time, and sometimes it shuts down, and sometimes not. I see no logic in this.

    Some guys assumed that my laptop doesn't provide enough power, but I stressed it in AIDA and all was fine. I'm playing in top games in 4k and no problems. Only this test shuts my laptop down.

    I don't see the logic here.


    Code: 
    Acer Predator G9-593
Intel Core i7-6700HQ (2.6Ghz/3.5Ghz) (https://goo.gl/dehk14)
Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 (8Gb GDDR5) (https://goo.gl/z2aEFL)
15.6inch 1920x1080 (G-Sync) (IPS)
16Gb DDR4-2400 / PC4-19200 (2x ACR24D4S7S8MB-8)

    Temps OK?

    Are you running a cpu undervolt? Is it encode stable? E.g. Does it complete realbench

    Tried both, default and undervolt. Doesn't matter. Temps are ok.
