Some of it, yes, but my last desktop PC didn’t have the issue at all, or at least very rarely, running a 550 Ti, compared to the known-super-buggy 360M in my laptop.
The nVidia 300-series mobile cards were pretty much all crap, due to SEVERAL nasty bugs. For example, after any reboot, if I try to run any graphics-intensive software, the card rapidly heats to failsafe temps and shuts the PC down. But if I 1st change the GPU and VRAM clocks (up or down, and even if I return them immediately to the original state) then the temps suddenly fall to normal values and stay there; I can even overclock the card quite a bit at that point, no problems. Seriously, WTF?
I’m lucky I figured out how to get it to work, I guess *shrug* .
