Screen tearing for K401LB Nvidia 940M GPU
After applying a new thermal paste on both the Intel GPU and Nvidia GPU, my Nvidia GPU start giving me this issue after working fine for an hour or so.
Intel still working without any issue.
For software side, have tried reinstalling the driver
For hardware side, have tried reapplying thermal paste, untighten the screw pressing down the GPU, and wriggling the Nvidia GPU to see if it will change from the current problem to another problem like RGB line or laptop sudden shutdown, but no change.
Would like to test out if there is any other method of fixing this problem other than reflow soldering or similar as I do not have the tools needed for it.
Many Thanks

when reapplying the thermal paste did you get it on any of the tiny components on the nvidia gpu? What type of thermal paste did you use.

@vip_aha Before reapplying, I have check that no left over paste have touch any metal components protruding out of the GPU. To add on, my GPU have a tape that cover the board around the heat spreader.
The paste that I use is Artic MX-4
