weird gpu problem

so i have this weird gpu problem in my laptop

I wanted to play some gta 5. everything went ok at first. i started playing, the fps were ok(40-45fps) but after 2-3 minutes the game crashed and it gave me some weird error

i tried to look online for an awnser and it told me that it might be something regarding the direct x so i updated it but after playing a few minutes i got the same problem

i also had a 32 bit vcredist installed a few days ago so i thought that by uninstalling that it would solve the problem

but it wouldn't.

 

then i tried to run the game again but this time something different happened. the game started normally but it ran at like 7-10 fps, it was unplayable and so i thought that my gpu drivers were "bad" or something happened to them

whenever i would right click any game, i would have an option to choose which gpu to choose to run the application but now that option is missing so i thought that i should go into geforce experience and update my drivers. i saw that a new driver was avaible so i decided to install it thinking that might solve the problem

after installation i restarted the laptop but the problem remained the same so i went into device manager to see if i could find something there

and I found this

(don't mind that coolpad mobile device. is just my sisters phone charging)
 
after seeing that i'll uninstall everything i have nvidia related(gpu driver, geforce experience physx) but what else should i try if that doesn't work???
sorry it it is hard to understand(english isn't my first language) but if you have any unclear things just quote me
 
 
 
 
thank you for your help :)

Update it to the 64-bit vcredist.exe

Updates?

CPU usage?

GPU usage?

RAM usage?

i have a few vcredist installed (2008,2010,2013) all of them 64 bit. the one i uninstalled i think that it was the 2005 one which i installed for an older game

windows updates are all made(right when i restarted the pc to uninstall vcredist it applied an update)

everything else is normal. cpu ram and gpu usage are all normal, and every process in task manager looks "normal"(there isn't any suspicious program running)

Reinstall the game?
