Hi,

I'm not sure if this will help you but I have an Acer Aspire 3820T 
laptop with the same CPU.
Some years ago I was experiencing Xorg crashing and the "GPU HANG" 
problem seen in dmesg.

These kernel parameters helped with that problem:

intel_iommu=igfx_off i915.modeset=1 i915.enable_dc=0 i915.enable_fbc=1 
i915.enable_psr=1 i915.enable_dp_mst=0 i915.disable_power_well=0

YMMV etc,

Aki
