OK for those who encountered same problem with CPU throttling after installing a new GPU.. you can work around it by disabling BD PROCHOT in throttlestop app, however keep an eye on the temps though afterwards.

And the results were ? Also have you ever baked MXM mobile GPUs ?

Hmm...interesting experience Khenglish.. I am not quite sure if I wanna bake that card anymore and risk some failure of different HW during testing... Now I have another card in my laptop (670m) which works fine, however causing a different issue - CPU throttling all of sudden and curently dont know how to fix that But I was more interested, if it is possible to somehow mechanicaly fix the card ? Like send it to some miracle service center, where they would "open" it and fix it with a miniature screw driver :D or something ?

are you sure ? Mobile GPUs are much smaller in terms of parts and construction...I was actually instructed to use 200C and not exceed 7 minutes as the card might not survive it ...

Hello I`ve recently had to change my mGPU (570m) in my laptop, as it started to cause random shutdowns as a sign of dying and getting worn out. I propably fried her a little by small overclocking I applied through MSI afterburner from time to time and didn`t really care for maintaining the heating and cooling. Yeah, my bad and I`ve learned it the hard way. Now I have a new one, which works good. And I`ve read on this forum, that many people have come across this same issue. But I was wondering, if there is any way, how to fix such dying card ? As its mostly MOSFETs that cause these problems. Or the only future of such card is at the bottom of a trash can ? I tried to "bake" my old 570m 3 times, but it helpel just slightly - there were still shutdowns during 3D apps, but not so often and not during idle and booting stages as before. I had lot of good time with it and I dont feel that its a proper way for her to be just thrown out, without trying to fix her and leave it for a calm retirement. thx for any ideas

Hello, I have similar problem I just recently had to upgrade my GT780DX GPU from 570m into 670m as the old one started to die out and caused random shutdowns. As I have found out, the 670m is basically the same card with the same specs, just with a bit higher stock clocks. And everything works fine, no shutdowns, but I see also major CPU throttling during any game or 3D application (I dont see any if I run just MSI kombustor GPU tests), but when I try to play GTA IV (which is really CPU demanding) its nearly unplayable, as every few seconds it starts to throttle like crazy... Which is strange, as the temps never cross over 77C and Ive noticed throttling even on lower temps... Can you pls say and explain to me, how did you managed to deal with your CPU throttling ? Its definetely induced by the new GPU ? thx
