GTX 560m crashing at 65 C

[yukodrigo]

Hello,

I've had my Toshiba x775 Q7272 for about 8 months now. And just today the "Display driver has stopped working" and BSOD problems started happening. After using the nvidia system monitor while gaming and OCCT for stability testing, I noticed that the crashes happen exactly when the GPU core temp hits the 65 C. But that is way below the 95 C max temp the card is supposed to hold right? And I've been playing BF3 for a few months now without any problems.

Is my GPU crippled for good? Any of you guys have experienced this before?

if its only been 8 months it should still be under warranty. You can mess around with drivers/factory restore to see if it persists but I'd make them fix it.

Yes, that's what I did, but because I'm overseas the local toshiba support charges 130 bucks to fix it. Makes me want to buy 10 more toshiba systems...

Anyway, thank you.
