Hi I’m having an issue with cs go on my new laptop. It’s the Acer triton 500 with the 2080 max q. I’ve under volted the CPU to -140mV.
Everytime I play cs go after a while the screen shuts off but the laptop keeps running. It won’t turn back on unless I force close it and unplug the power then turn it back on. It’s a 144hz screen.
Any ideas what it could be? It doesn’t happen on any other games only cs go.
What brand and model laptop are we talking here?
- Check GPU and CPU temp with something like MSI Afterburner or HWInfo.
- Try setting the refresh rate in Windows to 60Hz and see if it still does it.
- Try enabling VSync in CS:GO or setting an FPS limit at 144.
Long shot: Make sure you do not have WiFi or other wireless devices nearby. Temporarily switch to wired LAN if you are on WLAN normaly.
I have seen wireless cause screen flicker and/or blanking on some laptops (for whatever reason).
