Voltage limit is fine, it means the GPU is boosting as high as it can.

So far, it looks like VRM overheating to me.

What about the CPU clocks?

Do what I told you to do and report back.

Showing only the FPS and gpu core clock is the same as showing the speedo and tachometer on a car to a mechanic and asking why it's struggling to go any...

Enable power, no load, temp and voltage limit monitoring on afterburner or use cpuz for that while you're running a game. See what it's reporting.

Something is capping your fps. Looks like it's...

It's good enough.
Thermal conductivity values are different depending on the brand, it's hard to compare using that number. What I mean is, there is not a standard testing method they all use to...

Don't worry about it. K5pro is just as good as a no brand thermal pad. It's good enough. You don't need top quality thermal pads.

The thing is, the heatsink springs are designed to work with...

That's just their standard script they usually follow.

Find a screw on the laptop that's the same length as the one you lost and buy a replacement on ebay. They usually sell packs of 100 for like 2 bucks.

You can't use regular thermal paste on the VRMs. It won't fill the gap properly and they will overheat.

You have to use the stock thick paste (called K5Pro) or thermal pads. If you plan on using...

Keep it short and simple if you want anyone around here reading your replies. If you feel like writing a book on the subject, this is not the right place I'm afraid.

What are the GPU/CPU temperatures and clocks under 100% load?
Is the battery in good shape?

That's insane and overkill. I love it! lol good job man.

Probably related to secure boot.

I never said the connector would come loose. It's a bad connection, doesn't means the connector popped out of the socket. It happens all the time. You're saying that like everything that comes out of...

That's what I've been saying since ever but no one ever listens. It's lost between all the users ranting about the issue. People just want a magical fix, like a patch or something that will fix...

No problem. Keep us updated if you ever manage to fix it.

Makes no sense whatsoever, but to each their own.

Negligible difference. Don't worry about it.

Run CPUz or open the back cover to see what brand/model it is. Buy another one of the same.

It will work with 3000mhz modules but at 2666mhz.

Way too expensive for a single key. You can get an entire keyboard for 50 bucks, free shipping.

Just search for "GL704 keyboard" on ebay or aliexpress.

Any should work fine. Just buy two identical modules.

For short periods like that, not really. I would use something like Superposition benchmark.

I guess it would be easier to just replace the keyboard. You can find it on ebay and aliexpress. You could use the key you need from the new keyboard or replace the old one and keep it as a spare.

Although rare, Furmark can potentially cause serious damage to your system. It puts some unrealistic loads on the GPU, specially the VRMs. Use with caution.
