Atreyu7 Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Hows it going everyone new to the site. I have a GT70 0ND i bought about two years ago and has worked very well. About a month ago i was gaming and i kept getting TDR blue screen errors. I reinstalled windows, went into safe mode removed all old graphics drivers and reinstalled new ones and it still randomly crashes. i went to a computer repair guy to have him look at the laptop and said it passed all his diagnosis tests and will try it again and run it hard with some games. So i guess my question here is would it be the motherboard is messed up or the GPU. It has a GT675M i think inside (still at shop). If its the GPU what is the best way about replacing this and which one would be the best bang for the buck? I am smart around computers and have built my own desktop but have never messed around with laptops to much. is it worth even replacing or just buying a new laptop. Thanks for any and all help.

Bloetschkopf Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Hello It is 100% Your GPU,this Problem have a lot of People with GTX570/GTX580/GTX670/GTX675M. The best and cheapest Way for Upgrading is a Quadro(K3100M/K4100M/K5000M/K5100M) or MX Card GTX670MX/GTX675MX) With a K5000M or K5100M You must modify the Driver INf because their is no MSI Vbios. Some of this Cards You can overclock more than 60% up to 1GHz. And this Cards are cheaper than the GTX with the same Power. For the Upgrade You need a new Heatsink for Keplercards like this on Ebay: 111772872525 Here some Benchmark Results from a GT70 Haswell with different Quadro Cards. http://www.3dmark.com/3dm11/10661863 http://www.3dmark.com/3dm11/10599233 http://www.3dmark.com/3dm11/10322692 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
