  1. Thanks for the suggestion! I laughed pretty hard when you said "and the power of love." haha! I'll try it and report back!
  2. Setup is: Lenovo laptop with i5 5200U 2.20ghz 600w EVGA psu (also had same issue with a 300w psu) Nvidia GTX 950 EVGA 8 ghz ram GDC Beast with NGFF cable Attached is a picture of what happens when my drivers stop responding. Right after the vertical yellow dotted line you see the power on the GPU spike to the highest. This is when my GPU drivers crashes and recovers. The GPU use is rather low then sinks to 0 suddenly. I am using the paperclip trick to keep the PSU on and did the same method with the other PSU. The same issue occurs absolutely randomly during regular internet browsing or taxing gameplay. Any idea? I can give further info if need be!
  3. Everything works, here are some suggestions if you got my same build - I didn't need DIY Setup 1.3, but I got it anyway - I use the paperclip trick -Everything is plug and play with an external monitor -It seems the Lenovo Edge is whitelisted (go figure) NGFF adapter Questions: 1) Is it normal for when the GPU is not on high load, that the fans turn off? I notice when I play games the fans turn on and the GPU temp stays normal, but when i'm just browsing the Internet, the fans turn off. 2) I left a game (MMO, Archeage) running for two days straight and everything was working fine. When I went out of afk and ran around after the second day, the 400w ATX PSU cut off. It wouldn't work until I gave it time to cool down, but when I turned it back on, the fans were violently going off. I immediately turned it off because I thought maybe it was getting too much power? I switched to another more expensive PSU (The 600w one) and everything went back to normal. If I am doing the paperclip trick, should I be turning it off periodically to give it time to relax? Is the paperclip trick a long time solution or is it imperative that I do something else?
