Well, I rung dell again and a very rude indian guy on the phone sold me a 1 year warranty for £110 (my system is too old for a three year one apparantly). The laptop seems OK at the moment, so I'm going to see what happens, as now I know if it does go wrong I'll be OK

Well, the engineer came and replaced the GPU today, and my laptop is working fine. No new M1730 for me though, although now I might sell this and buy one.

Yes, undervolting is a nice idea. Be careful not to reduce too much the voltage, it can cause blue screens. But when done properly, reduces heat and power consumption, but nice you have solved the issue, cheers!
