Hi
We have NOT touched the reconstruction algorithms for over 2 years… So it does not depend on the actual RC build
What is your PRECISE notebook model ? I would like to check its cooling capabilities
The thing is you need to understand that NVDIA/AMD have their GPUs segmented per use-case.
The x80 x70 are the power kings
x60 x50 are middle class
x40 x20 x10 are a LOW-end class
This classification is done on power ( TDP ) and performance and few more things.
What is nowhere presented so much is that their COOLING requirements are set per this segmentation. And mostly you can find a specification of occasional gaming, or fast processing etc.
And this means the x40 - x10 GPU series is developed for certain power AND workload. The x40 - x10 are for OCCASIONAL gaming or work, nothing that lasts for a LONG time, as the DESIGN of the GPUs is not capable of sustained, high duration use. So in short, the cooling design and so on is NOT designed so that they can work for a longer time (30+ mins ), as the power and cooling is NOT capable of sustainability over longer time.
This can be clearly seen on the reported user base, as CUDA error 30 ( + few more ) is related ONLY to the low-end GPUs.
We have NO reports on this issues on x70 x80 cars in desktop PCs - if they are properly cooled !!
There have been few x70 x80 in notebooks but, when we have inspected the THERMAL tests, we have found out that they have PROBLEMS with a proper longer sustained workload, because the notebooks have NOT been designed for this sort of work, mostly SLIM or very low-weight versions.

Scroll down to the TEMPERATURE
However, the reader should note that this an extreme scenario (full load for several hours) which will probably not occur in an everyday use.
BUT keep in mind that you have a DUAL 460M cards there !!! so it raises the temperature a lot…
