Hey everyone,
I'm experiencing a frustrating issue with my GTX 1060 6GB ASUS GPU. It performs flawlessly for everyday tasks and lighter games like League of Legends, but when I attempt to play more demanding games such as Elden Ring, it shuts down after about 5 minutes of use and gives no absolute error just like alt+f4. I've tried numerous solutions to resolve the issue, including:
I consulted a repair shop, and they suggested that the GPU might require a reball or reflow. However, the repair cost is around $40 more or less, which is beyond my current budget constraints. I'm hoping to explore other potential solutions before resorting to this option.
Here are the specs of my PC:

I've tried numerous solutions to resolve the issue, including:
- Testing the GPU on multiple PCs, all exhibiting the same problem.
- Underclocking and undervolting the GPU.
- Changing BIOS settings.
- Cleaning the GPU thoroughly and replacing the thermal paste.
