My Nvidia GTX 860M works okay for a bit on my laptop, but after some playtime it always crashes and recovers, and gives a popup on the bottom right. Eventually it gets stuck in a loop of crashing and recovering to the point I have to force shut down the laptop by holding the power button.
I've looked all over for solutions, tried everything I could find including removing all drivers and installing new, installing old archived versions, adding TdrDelay with regedit etc etc. I then found this thread. http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-2227490/nvidia-driver-crashing-recovering.html#14288771
I can see through task manager that my memory clock speed is 1600mhz, and with nvidia control panel I see my graphics card clock speed is 5010 mhz. I read somewhere that GDDR5 is 4X the actual base clock, meaning the base speed should be 1252.5? That seems off to me, so correct me if I'm wrong. Dxdiag shows 2GB of dedicated ram and 8GB shared. The previous link mentions that when the 2GB is used up and the GPU goes to borrow system RAM, the clock speeds don't match causing a crash.
I don't know how to match the clock speeds up or if that is the actual cause of the problem or not. Any help is appreciated.
