Tried making an overriding setting in the nvidia control panel on launch of dayz?

I would go with replacing the heat compound and see if you can find some after market fans with higher airflow if you have to stick with a laptop.

As he's only having this problem with dayz, there are other things to try before going through all that.

 

You could run furmark and get yourself a benchmark or see if you can reproduce the failure.

he said directly in his post that he cleans it often.

 

by the way the pc he is listing above is a laptop. Chances are it has a fan mounted for a side port to vent heat.

 

Makes me wonder if it has ever been blown out completely the right way.

Yeah, like an actual cleaning, or a compressed air can to the external vents.

 

It's happened to me, where the fans get fucked, and stop working on GPUs. etc, then it just shits the bed.

So , if i guess right, the only way to play dayz for me...is to buy a new computer?

I wouldn't jump to that if you're able to play other high demand games. You need to troubleshoot it hard. Tried rolling back your drivers?
