Laptop Buzzing and freezing

[GSR325]

Hello, I have a Lenovo y540 laptop, whenever I try to play games, the laptop freezes and buzzes. I've taken it to a repair shop and they say that they haven't experienced that issue, I have tried almost everything, using CCleaner,enabling fast start, going into event viewer to locate the issue. But nothing seems to work, can someone help me out here?

Have you tried updating the video drivers?

My Nvidia card drivers are up to date.

My dude, I also have a y540. I just got it from repairs! Send it asap before your warranty runs out. It's a known issues with the GPU.

Does it bluescreen?

No Blue screen, and my warranty expired last month

I even tried Malware bytes

I'd advise not running anything graphically intensive (such as games) - it sounds similar to what happened to my Sony Vaio a while back, which ended up with it requiring the GPU be reballed... and that turned out to only be temporary as it eventually died with the same symptoms.

This is a gaming laptop, what other options do I have if I cannot play games on it?

 

[Hayato213]

Well it sounds like hardware problem if it freeze it is probably your GPU, ccleaner, malwarebyte ain't going to fix it.

I think I know the problem, I played the same game on my older laptop, and it makes the buzzing sound, but it doesn't freeze, I believe it has something to do with the sound, but I don't know what exactly.
