Hey Guys!
My main problem next to the unsolvable high dpc latency and isr is the constantly reappearing "residual contour" problem. It is almost always on my loading screens in games like World of Warcraft or War Thunder. These lines are from the screens before the loading screens. I can't describe the problem better, so I try to attach some videos (and sry for the bad quality). I don't have a clue, what could cause such a problem so I'm not even sure, that it's the GPU. I have an ASUS G551VW FW276D I7 6700HQ GTX 960m 8gb ram.

Those artifacts in the new screenshot and the image glitches originally posted look like issues with the video card. Overheating or just going bad. Make sure the laptop case is clean, fans are clean, vents not blocked. Monitor temps with HWMonitor see how high they get during gaming.

Not yet. I try to keep it as a last solution and first consult with smarter people to avoid unnecessary steps. My drivers are up to date but I had some strange stuff going on here, when i tried to update nvidia to the latest driver. After the first attemp it seemed, that it haven't done anything (still showed that a new driver is available) and when i started wow, it did something really wierd (I'll upload a picture later). But the second time it installed properly. I also heard that the slow loading of the nvidia experience and physics console can refer to a problem as well. (because in my case, their loading process is really slow)

The GPU seems a bit too hot at 90C there for the max, does is stay that the whole time a game is on? You may want to contact ASUS and check with them. Not sure about the overclock listing, it may just be the turbo boost and it's reading that as the overclock.

I ran a benchmark yesterday and this is what I got in time spy. Is this unusual? I can't tell you, the average temp of the gpu during gaming, because hwm doesn't even show the nvidia, only the intel card. Also during the cpu test the fan was pumping out the air like hell, while during the gpu tests it was just slightly faster then normal. And these issues (atrifacts) were still there during the benchmarks.

If your monitor plugged into the motherboard? From the test results, either your 960 is dead or you are using the onboard video. Either way, the artifacts are a sign of a bad card, test it in another system see if the issue follows the card.
