Gl551JW: Power Limit Throttling and random BSOD problems.

[nickwarrior5]

I was getting random BSOD of whea_uncorrectable_error. In XTU, I found out that my cpu was being power limit throttled! I tried to test if it was my power supply by unplugging that, I also tried to test if it was my battery by taking out the battery and having power straight from the PSU. I even tried a factory reset and to still no avail. Does anybody know how to fix my problem? I dont want to have to send in my laptop.

What are your temps running? CPU and GPU will throttle to protect themselves

My gpu temps are around 70c while gaming. When stress testing my cpu it is around 85c. I do notice though that my package TDP is higher than normal. Could more dust = higher temps = power limit throttle?
