    Haven't bought a Dell in years, still using my 7740... Wow, their new naming scheme is confusing!

    Hi all! Have a family member starting architecture school, looking for recommendations from you pros. Not sure if an XPS (if there's a screen big enough) or Alienware or one of the Pro models would be a smarter choice. You recommend AMD or Intel cpu? Maybe more importantly, which type of dGPU? NVIDIA or AMD? Looking for something that'll last a bit. Thanks! The school emailed some recommendations and also said they'll be using Revit in the future. · 15” screen size recommended · Operating System: 64‐bit Windows 11 · CPU Type: Intel or AMD processor with 2 GHZ or higher base core clock speed. o Highest single core base clock speed (GHz) is recommended · Memory: 32‐GB RAM (64‐GB preferred) · Dedicated graphics card with 6GB of video memory. o Accelerated Graphics (for complex Revit models and Graphic files): Graphics card with 8GB or more of video memory recommended. § OpenGL 4.5 or higher required. · Disk Size: 1TB Solid State Drive Please note: due to the intensive use of computer graphics in architecture and engineering, a dedicated graphics card is required. Students that have ignored this by purchasing a cheaper laptop with integrated graphics have had to purchase a new laptop.

    Edit: please disregard. just bought a nebular red for £180 only downside being 1440 x 900 No Battery will rectify with upgraded display + battery.

    Hi everyone. I installed a GTX 1070 in my M18x R2, but the PC isn't detecting the card. I removed it, checked it, cleaned it, and tried again, but the result is the same.

    Yeah anything 4004 or higher sets 8GHz ram as long as a I don't touch the base or boost clocks. 6GHz if I touch those. I also tried again to mod the P4000 device ID to be a P5200. That failed again. There seems to be some security check beyond checksums to check the device ID.

    Hi, UK Based After a Alienware M17X R2 almost had the chance to buy one via eBay but unfortunately a reseller bought them and re listed at 3x the price. typical… if anyone could potentially hook me up that would be awesome. thank you.

    Hello guys. What are your scores in CPU-z with an i7 11700K? (Undervolted). Because I'll soon test my RTX 4090 MXM with my backlight mod v2 and a custom made heatsink for it with CPU part being watercooled (hopefully) This card worked on the P775TM1 with 9900K

    You'll want big speakers and a nice sub for this one.

    Here it is. Best to use are Clevo's eDP cables, since you need only to solder on motherboard side. Connectors are dissasembled and reassembled without damaging. There is 8560w boardview file in internets, you need to open it with Open board viewer - for examining mobo side, if you're not sure. For 4K cable you need to use 40pin cable and need to connect 4 additional cables - third and fourth pair of eDP_TX positive and negative channels. Hp original LVDS cable also can be modded, but then you need to solder both sides, and check cables using multimeter. LVDS LCD side is 40pin too, if I can remember. Unfortunately I don't have free time lately that I could go on with modding as I had been doing. So I have to end 8570w journey. I still use it sometimes, letting it retire in peace 🙂 You may hear more of me in another thread, maybe someone will use all that experience saved here to use.

    OK, so you set 4004mhz on vram and that allowed the card to oc the ram? I've done more testing on the downclocking of the card and I noticed that setting lower clocks just on the core clock list results in downclock + only downclocking on the limit clocks found in the vp profiles also results in downclock (both are independent). So that means that card reads both core clock list + vp profiles to set it's clock value. On my p4000 if I left the limit clock untouched and OC core clocks in the clock list, card would not OC, I also had to raise vp profile limits clocks. My program does both but it appears that this isn't enough for p5200, there must be another hidden "max" limit clock value, in our case 1708mhz. Now I will attempt to replace the p5200 vp section with the sections of GTX cards and p4000 to see if that resolves the issue. EDIT : Well I am starting to fear that the 1708Mhz is baked in deeper into the vbios or the driver as even when using a GTX Virtual P state table or parts of VP table of the MSI P5200 vbios I still hit the 1708Mhz wall... I still have some hope as I am pretty sure the MSI vbios does make the card boost to 1911Mhz (userbenchmark scores) as well as the HP zvr backpack vbios. + Some guy in china managed to boost the P3200 & P4200 to 1900Mhz & 9Ghz vram : P3200 : Search & P4200 : Search The MSI vbios flat out refuses to boot on my system. Pasting parts from the performance section into the working "dell" vbios results in no boot as well

    PCH is located under the front cover; to replace the thermal pad on it, you need to completely disassemble the laptop. I suggest changing the power mode for Link State Power Management of the PCI Express bus to Minimum — the temperature should drop to 50 degrees, and it does not affect performance.

    So for all 3 vbios that work, all 3 can OC memory to 8GHz. I did try one at 10GHz and the card went error 43, implying that it actually was trying to run 10GHz, and failing. Maybe a big VRAM overvolt to 1.65V or something could get 10GHz working, but I think I have a good chance at killing the card trying. I have been trying just adjusting the max clock and not touching base or boost blocks. This seems to permit constant 1708MHz on the core, but no higher. Touching the max clock only does not seem to be wrecking the vram clocks.

    With both the ZRT and X-Vsion, you can output the display to an external monitor (using either HDMI or DisplayPort), right?
  23. JadeRover
    I've done some testing on my P5200, my utility can downclock the core no problem + GPU-z shows the correct base and boost clocks of my utility, so it is editing the correct core clock values.
  24. JadeRover
    Can you post the vbios that works with the 8ghz OC and the one that doesn't ? What vbios did you use as a base to test these OCs ? I can take a look at the differences

    Alphacool Apex 2 Thermal Paste Claims 17.3W/mK Conductivity Published 14 hours ago by Hilbert Hagedoorn 1 Alphacool has introduced Apex 2 Thermal Grease for high-performance CPU, GPU and water-cooling applications. The compound carries a claimed thermal conductivity of 17.3W/mK and thermal resistance of 0.0006°C·in²/W. Its density is specified between 2.6 and 2.7g/mL. Operating temperature spans -20°C to 130°C. Viscosity is listed at 130–140Pa·s at 20°C, indicating a relatively thick compound that may require deliberate application pressure. Thermal-conductivity figures cannot always be compared directly between brands because measurement methods and sample conditions differ. Complete cooler mounting, contact pressure, surface flatness and paste thickness can influence real processor temperatures more than a small difference in the quoted conductivity number.

    Only sm can't support 11th, only supports 10th

    Okay i know 10th and 11th gen same socket but asking about the bios cpu support
  28. cathoderayfish started following Hello
  29. cathoderayfish
    Hello, I picked up an old p775dm3 to be my daily-driver mobile workstation a while back. I have been doing some upgrades, maintenance, and mods and got to the point where I need to ask some questions about vbios power limits and things, seemed like this place is where discussions of that sort occur, so I made an account. Looking forward to being here and continuing my upgrade adventures.
  30. SuperMG
    It supports 10th and 11th gen. No 9th gen support.

    Does anyone know where the Intel pch chip is in this laptop? I recently replaced the thermal paste and pads with ptm and putty, but hwinfo shows it running at 82C while idle which is a bit hot from what I've read.
  33. Maro97
    Dose KM Bios model support 10900kf ?
  34. Amir.s
    Hey my friend! Any news or progress on the project? I’m sure that one day we’ll get this BIOS unlocked.
