You sure that GPU is throttling? May be CPU multiplier drops dead?

I had same issue with my old Acer, there is one cooler and heat sink system for CPU and GPU.

So, when CPU was stressed on turbo multiplier it was getting GPU eventually to 74 degrees and exactly on this point CPU multiplier was dropping to 8 (800Mhz) leading to horrible fps drop.

So I used ThrottleStop 3.50 to prevent this.

I am 100% sure, I used GPU-Z to monitor my GPU usage and GPU-Z doesn't show CPU stuff does it?

Anyway, so I found out ASUS' genius idea to make vBIOS a part of the BIOS which makes it impossible to extract the vBIOS or to flash the vBIOS without touching the main BIOS, nvflash doesn't work too. It seems really hopeless now, I guess I just have to live with this and get another laptop that doesn't limit everything. My laptop is a ASUS G551JM with GTX 960M, if anyone finds a way to modify the vBIOS, please let me know!

My post was ignored, hope someone will see it now...

Hi, I'm new here, and I have a problem, can anyone help me? I just bought an ASUS laptop, it's G551JM, with GTX 960M and I7 4720HQ, so far everything works fine, except one thing: the GPU gets thermal throttling at 74 degrees, which is low as hell for a gaming laptop. I've been googling for many days now and I found out it's because of the vBios, so I have to mod the vBios, I've followed this guide but I have a problem with NVFlash (I got a modified version too that bypasses certification), it keeps saying "No NVIDIA display adapters found". Is there any NVFlash version that supports GTX 960M? Or am I doing something wrong here? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
