Problem with Radeon HD 6770 M ... Help !!!!!

My Laptop info

Core i7 2630QM @ 2.0Ghz
Radeon HD 6770 M 1 GB DDR5
Intel HD GPU
DDR3 4 GB 1333Hz Ram


I have this problem often. While playing certain games ( NFS Rivals, Grid 2 - even in low graphics) most often I get it hanged in after few min, and get a message that GPU had restarted. Is it so that the GPU is able to control these high end games ?. But I have no problem Playing Maxpane 3, NFS HP 2011, NFS RUN etc.

I have my Switchable GPU option to use High Performance GPU ( Made it Static in the BOIS). Does this means HD 6770 M GPU is alone used and not the Intel GPU? If so is there any way to make the game to use both the GPUs.

rivals is a ported game. you will likely experience hangs even on a high end set up. Also update the game before playing. what is your gpu usage while playing? post a screenshot of gpuz.

Buy the way whats the maximum temp & other variables you get while playing hardcore games..

i dont have a laptop. anyway you should keep it under 85C.Reapplying thermal paste on your 6770m will result in a considerable drop in temperature, if that exactly is your case.

I believe its acceptable till 90 C for ultra high end games (ultra high-end in comparison to your laptop). Mine usually stay stable around 85-87 while gaming.

I think 85 degree and up is dangerous for long terms. Just touching 90 is okay for a short while but may lead to capacitor failures in the mobo near the GPU. My 8850M never exceeds 80.

And I found 1 thing, that my fan speed keeps constant at 30% neither increases nor decreases any problem ? or is it cause of HP's cool sense technology. I even tried turning it off.

You can use Open Hardware Monitor to manually set the fan speeds to 100% while playing games.
