Asus Tuf Dash F15 fx516pm nvidia GPU RTX 3060 died after Bios and VBIOS update

As the title says, My FX516PM gpu died after bios and VBIOS update 318.

After restarting the system, I noticed that Armoury Crate was not showing any data about the GPU, only "Extreme power saving".
Then I Checked the Device manager and the GPU nvidia RTX 3060 was stopped because of a malfunction.

I had already reinstalled the system. Windows is Up to date and everything on MyAsus is up to date too.

VBIOS hotfix is installed too.

I wonder if anyone else had this issue. Before the update my laptop was working, and now I can only use the iGPU but if I try to use the nVidia RTX 3060, the system crash with BSOD with error "video tdr failure nvlddmkm.sys".
I noticed that after using Asus recovery tool, I'm not able to open NVIDIA CONTROL PANEL, and apps only uses Intel XE Graphics and I cannot select the NVIDIA GPU.

I sent my laptop to RMA, and the report said that GPU was faulty, so they gave a new laptop. This one also cannot hold 144fps on league of legends or valorant. What a shame.
