G733 Turbo mode crashing

[Caperone]

Hi,

I've got 2 identical G733QS-XS98Q purchased at same time. Same setup, same drivers, everything identical. One runs smoothly in turbo mode, the other one ALWAYS crashes in games when in turbo mode is on (within seconds). Super steady when on performance mode. Can someone explain what could be wrong? Is there a log or something that could tell me what's going on exactly? Only information I get (from one game) is that GPU stop responding, other just close without a log. Annoying to pay a fortune for a high level computer that can't run at full speed.

change the nvidia drivers to 466.11 and no crashes any more...

It did help, but the troublesome laptop still crash after a few minutes. A least not after a few seconds, but still crash. 😞

One thing I noticed, the GPU max frequency reach 1935 mhz while on the working laptop, the maximum is 1890. Could it be the issue?

Laptop #1 one is running smooth, be it working or idling (game still running but in background). Laptop #2 seems to be all over the place in same situation (same game, running or in background)
