I'm looking at a friends g750JW with the 765M and I can't get it to run a complete benchmark with furmark.
The GPU gets to 85C and then the screen goes black and I have to power it off and back on again to get video.
As for the CPU I can run Prime95 set for max heat and the temp gets up to about 94C after 20 minutes. I will
assume the GPU is odd but I have seen other screen shots around this forum of people running both and
being much cooler. I blew out the fans so there isn't any dust in them is it time for a repaste ? Or any other
suggestions would be helpful.
wat444444444444444444444, how are you going to remember how many 4's to type in??
🙂 The CPU sounds fine, don't run Prime95 that long anyway, 5 minutes is enough to get a temperature reading.
Strange behavior with the GPU, are you sure there isn't some screen blanking going on - screensaver or power option to dim/turn off screen? Response might not be there while running furmark, be patient and only run the short test, not the burn-in test to start.
A GPU crash is usually the display driver crashing, and if you give it time it will watchdog restart the driver and give you back the desktop. Try to avoid power button turn off while Windows is running. Always do a right click on the C drive icon, properties and check the disk - schedule a test at reboot if it requests it.
Hook up an external monitor too... see if you get different GPU test behavior.
