I have been having this problem with BD prochot lately, however my gpu and cpu temps are just fine. If i disable this option my GPU "dies" every 5sec.
I have tried everything: bios, drivers, power options, undervolting cpu and gpu.
My guess is either faulty battery or cable, does any one knows?

Thank you for the fast reply!

Here are the logs:

U can see when i activate BD prochot there, i ativated and deactivated a few times to test it, i also unpluged and pluged back the laptop.
The temps dont go much higher than 75, wich i think are pretty standard.

Its also possible to see when the GPU "crashes" every 5seconds at 300mhz (around 17:36).


The cpu if i disable bd prochot it doesnt change the clock, however if i activate it drops to the lowest possible (8x0.78).

Also if my PC is on battery alone this will happen much faster. (plugged after a few minutes, unplugged almost instant).

There's a faulty sensor, or another part of the gpu is overheating - one that isn't shown among Gpu-Z's sensors.
Dust out the laptop fans, and elevate the back end for better ventilation.

Battery mode is expected to perform worse. It's prioritizing battery life.
