Your laptop power adapter or battery might be failing. If they cannot deliver enough power to your computer during a stress test then your computer will shut down. It sounds like that might be the problem. Hard to troubleshoot unless you have a spare power adapter and battery.
Try testing with all of the voltage Offsets set to +0.0000. Also try testing with the VCCIN set higher or lower.
Nvidia GPUs fail more often than Intel CPUs so I believe you. Is the Nvidia GPU at default MHz and default voltage?
@proooo - It sounds like you are pushing your Nvidia GPU to the edge of stability or maybe over the edge. Things change over time. CPU and GPUs might need slightly more voltage or might not be able to overclock quite as much. This is normal.
Have you tried using the latest version of ThrottleStop? It should not make any difference but it never hurts to try.
ThrottleStop 9.6 Download
ThrottleStop is a small application designed to monitor for and correct the three main types of CPU throttling that are being used on many laptowww.techpowerup.com
I do not have an answer for that question? Did you try using a different VCCIN setting? When I enable PowerCut on my laptop, my computer does not crash and my Nvidia GPU does not crash. I am not overclocking my Nvidia GPU so maybe that is why.
I tried it with a different voltage and it turned off, higher unstable and turns off immediately when stressed, if the low becomes very unstable and freezes, I have done some tests with the gpu without overclock but it still turns off but I have something new no I can stress cpu and gpu together I can only stress cpu, if I stress both it turns off I already installed the new version of throttlestop and it seems to help a little now it lasts a few seconds more but it still turns off, all this if I activate powercutt if I deactivate it is totally stable and able to run stable. All this appears in limit reason when I turn on the laptop
Perhaps that is part of the problem.
I fixed it !!!!, I don't know what happened exactly but I fixed it, I opened my laptop and disconnected absolutely everything, remove ram and bios battery and turned it on and left it on for 5 minutes, the laptop did a strange process, it seemed that I was configuring something (It did not give video because I removed the ram) and when I finished it turned off, connect all active powercutt start the tests and it did not turn off it remained stable I left it for 5 minutes and it was still stable (before adjusting it only 15 seconds passed exactly and it turned off ). I don't know what I did but it worked and I returned to normal.
