On a small laptop like this the VBIOS is embedded in the main BIOS

Does anything change if you switch between the NVIDIA and Intel GPU and back using the pulldown menu?
Or does sth. change if you hit the refresh button?

Also check if:
device manager->graphics cards->properties of NVIDIA GPU->details->installation status = 00000000

I updated the bios
Nothing changes except the bus interface sometimes it's x4.1.1 and sometimes 4.3.0
Install status is 00000000

Theoretically it should mean zero errors in installation.

Try different driver branches R440/R450/R455
Do a clean install, if necessary with DDU

Otherwise double-check with GPU Caps Viewer

Heat may have borked the GPU, they have a lower threshold than a CPU.
If updating the motherboards Bios doesn't help, try updating Chipset drivers but I'd say it is a Hardware failure and dead.

If you still use the antiquated NVIDIA driver from Lenovo support page, try a new one; eg today's hotfix

Did you already receive Windows 20H2 today? If not recheck afterwards.
A major Windows update might or might not fix issues...
