Even that I didn't mention, I tried it.

It worked for me for a while, and most part while I wasn't properly running 3D
rendering, but OpenCL codes instead.

But it never worked as a workaround cause it just randomized the time to happen
the errors.

And this is exactly why I didn't mention it before.

Indeed, I need to test it on kernel 4.18 yet.

In time : seems like that the warranty of my motherboard will take a long time
to finish.

I borrowed an old PC from my aunt and I hope that it will be enough to compile
the kernel and test the GPU. It is going to be fun to compile a kernel on a
1.6GHz dual core (1C/2T).
