Hi saiful256,
Does it only happen when you play? Try running an ePSA/Diagnostic test on the system.

yes. it happens when i play a game.
thanks for the reply. i tried the diagnostic test. there were no problems with the hardware. thinking about changing the thermal on that graphic.

so you think your card is overheating? are there any indications? have you tried to install different drivers? nvidia is known for bad drivers. try older one for example.

hi , maybe overheat. i have to underclock the gpu clock and i can play a game smooth, and my game becomes stutter after 5 minutes. i've tried the older version still get the same result. thanks for reply.
