    [SOLVED] Is my Laptop cpu getting too hot?

    Thanks for the responses, I already have the laptop elevated. I might try using a cooling pad as well but I doubt it will help much anyway. I would also try replacing the thermal paste but doing so would probably void the warranty and I also bought a one year accidental damage warranty as...

    [SOLVED] Is my Laptop cpu getting too hot?

    Hello, I just got a Lenovo p53 with a GTX Quadro RTX 5000 and I7-9850h . Before I start, I know that Quadro cards are not an ideal card for gaming but I got one because I'm an architecture student and this laptop is mostly for school. That being said, I do like to play some games here and...

    Lenovo p53 with Quatro 3000 for gaming?

    Yes. The strange thing is that I tried it again last night and it worked great! But this morning I tried it again and it went back to 25-30 fps again so I'm not sure whats going on.

    Lenovo p53 with Quatro 3000 for gaming?

    I just got the laptop today and I also decided to go with the Nvidia Quadro RTX 5000. Benchmarks are saying that I should get around 80 fps with Shadow of the Tomb Raider on ultra but I tried it and barely passed 30 fps. My Geforce 1060 in my desktop runs it much better than this at the same...

    [SOLVED] PC Shuts off When Playing Graphics intensive games

    Here are the HWmonitor results under normal use: I ran OCCT PSU test and was able to complete the 10 minute run the first time, but I went to do it again and the computer crashed after a few minutes. Hopefully I'm looking at the right power readings (the ones in the bottom right panel) Here...

    [SOLVED] PC Shuts off When Playing Graphics intensive games

    I'm probably wrong, but wouldn't the PC shut down anyway if there was not enough power even though the restart automatically option was disabled? Also, I tested different sticks of RAM that I know work, and it still shuts down, so that isn't the issue.

    [SOLVED] PC Shuts off When Playing Graphics intensive games

    So I have not ordered a new PSU as of yet, but I did find something that could possible help diagnose the problem. Ok, so this may be totally unrelated and dumb, (lol) but the PC powers off and restarts after only 30 to 60 seconds of running Heaven Benchmark 4.0, but if I disable automatic...

    [SOLVED] PC Shuts off When Playing Graphics intensive games

    I would test the PSU in my brothers rig but the connection cables are different so it would require me to unhook all the cables to his components. I'll probably just order the new PSU seeing it would be an upgrade from my current one anyway. Thanks for the info.

    [SOLVED] PC Shuts off When Playing Graphics intensive games

    Hello, I have a custom built PC that I built a few years ago that has recently been shutting down and immediately restarting after varied time lengths in graphically intensive games (Mafia 3, Quantum Break, Metro Exodus, etc.) I have checked the temperatures of my CPU (i5-6500) which does not...
