my friend !i have the solution for your nvidia issue!very easy i fixed mine today,all i did is. took it apart, and taked the processor fan off,remove the junk heat pad from the housing for the nvidia chip.and replace it for a nice cooper 1 ! they sell m on ebay for 3 bucks.but you have to heat up the nvidia chip for 30 seconds with a heat gun you can use aluminun foild to cover other plastic parts around the chip.after that wait for 10 minutes to let cool down.tats it my friend.works good now.

buy intel gpu motherboard instead of Nvidia gpu. You only need to buy different fan or cut the old fan with metal saw. All Nvidia 8400, 8600, and some 8800,9600, 9400,9800gt, are defected
