  2. Does anyone OWN a P570WM? With an unlocked CPU? Can they overclock thru the BIOS or thru XTU? Thanks.
  3. Hmm after all my research I've kinda just been thinking I should just get Xeon 17 G5 with P5200 and use that. However if I find a good deal on a 17 G6 Xeon (any GPU) then get that and experiment with it. Worst case I just have it for experiments and stuffs. Otherwise, these laptops seem very similar, would the G6 heatsink fit? Question, where do you find these for "very little"? The G5 with P5200 is quite rare and my only lead to possibly get one is 600 dollars and that's a maybe. The P5200 GPU by itself is 400 dollars so my best bet to get laptop and GPU is just to get a G5 with P5200. If you were to try the inverse my best idea would be to get 17 G6 with RTX 5000 or whatever, but in your case you would might as well just use that then.
  4. Yes they are present, even the chipset has one. They look like the original one, not dry.
  5. Not the best solution, but ended up just limiting the max frequenmcy to 1650mhz through nvidia-smi on Linux and X1 on Windows, nvidia-settings now shows GPU drawing just around 180W at max load. I am no longer worried about cooling and power delivery, and the occasional bit of instability during certain high-power-draw applications is gone. I also found the latest 729 Dsanke BIOS and changed the IDs so that nvidia drivers install without inf modding. (Done based on this post: https://notebooktalk.net/topic/2409-clevo-p775dm-3-upgrade-adventures/?&_rid=2772#findComment-51479) but with the IDs needed for 20 series support, that is 7714. I have attached this BIOS below, for any future readers of this post, but use it at your own risk. Now the only real issue that remains is the loss of gsync from the builtin panel, which is annoying but I have no idea how to fix, based on a quick glance, it may not be something that can be fixed since all that gsync stuff is done with binary-blob-in-bios nonsense.

  6. I never pushed the P570WM CPU like I did the NP9873, I think I generally left it at 4.3Ghz on my 4930k. I was mostly adding VRMs to the 980M and giving them a 50% overclock in those days and focussing on the GPU side as that was where the main bottleneck back then was. Have you checked the thermal pads cooling the VRMs?
  7. Yesterday
  8. Uh? I already stated multiple times I used an i7 4960X. Yes same issue. All 3 have the same issue. I can't increase the voltage, I need to increase in order to achieve 42x on all cores. I set 30, 40, 80 positive on the BIOS for the additional voltage (40 = +156mV) I see people getting like 1.4V and above with PremaMod BIOS, it is the V5 too. On the NBR forum, someone got the Xeon 1680 v2 at 4.5/4.6GHz all cores... Is he cheating?? My motherboard seems to be working, all RAM slots are working, the MXM slot (with RTX 4090M), all the USBs, even the charging IC work.
  9. Hmm, I don't know. Something is off. Clevo had some verey strange things with their firmware and maybe the CPU is not properly recognized. Do you have a normal i7 CPU that you could install for testing to see if the problem is the same? I'm not sure what to suggest at this point. You might need help from @Prema if it is a firmware glitch. Yeah, Windoze and Winduhz is how I refer to Micro$lop OSes now. The slurs are just my personal way of showing them as little respect as they deserve for their crappy products at this point.
  10. China need more GPUs for their AI servers. Jensen know they will pay up for 24GB vram. 5080@24GB will be for creators and AI workloads. Not for gamers. RTX 5090 smuggling devastates gaming: Micro Center bans graphics card exports and orders plummet by 75% - are they all going to China? Nvidia May Release 24GB RTX 5080 Earlier Than Expected Nvidia may release a 24GB version of the GeForce RTX 5080 in China before the previously expected launch window, according to ChannelGate. It is unclear whether the 24GB version would also replace the 16GB model in other regions. The report focuses on the Chinese market and does not establish that Nvidia plans to discontinue the current card globally. Regional product lineups could differ, but Nvidia has not announced any such plans. The GeForce RTX 5080 24 GB will mean that the RTX 5070 Ti is the most powerful GPU a gamer can buy.
  11. What's Windoze? Windows? I didn't understand. Yes I did most of the PL, voltage override and ratio on the unlocked BIOS. I followed your guide on YouTube with the PremaMod BIOS settings but still no success... You had a 4930k
  12. I also confirmed it with AI, LOL. Is voltage locked on Intel E5-1660 v2 CPU? No, the voltage is not locked on the Intel Xeon E5-1660 v2 processor. [1] The Intel Xeon E5-1600 series (v1, v2, and v3) are famous among hardware enthusiasts because they feature an unlocked multiplier and fully adjustable core voltages. This makes them function almost identically to consumer Core i7 Extreme Edition processors (like the Core i7-4960X) from the same Ivy Bridge-E era. [1, 2, 3] However, whether you can actually change the voltage depends heavily on your motherboard and software: Motherboard Compatibility: To adjust the core voltage (and multiplier), you must use a consumer-grade X79 chipset motherboard with an unlocked BIOS (such as those from ASUS, Gigabyte, or ASRock). If you put this CPU in a standard server or workstation motherboard (like a Dell Precision or HP Z-series), the motherboard's BIOS will lock out all overclocking and voltage options. A couple of random thoughts... If you are applying the voltage change in Windoze using software, don't. Try in the BIOS only (if you have not already). If I remember correctly there was something like the BIOS and clocks had to be left on Auto in the BIOS if you were using Windoze software to make changes. This was too long ago for me to remember clearly. I think you had to decide one or the other. If you made setting in the BIOS using software would cause issue. If you still have the firmware and have not tried flashing it again, give that a try. Maybe something got corrupted and a re-flash will fix it. I am not sure how much more I can help just because so much time has past. I am lucky if I can remember what I had for dinner last night.
  13. Nothing is locked on both Xeon and i7 EX. Everytime I hit apply, Windows throws a BSOD: iocbios2.sys. Yes I have the PremaMod bios as stated. It seems the latest one
  14. I have not owned that CPU before, but it should not be locked. I suspect it is the firmware and not the CPU. Do you have an unlocked @Prema BIOS? It has been too long ago for me to remember clearly. It was about 10 or 11 years ago that I owned a P570, but if memory serves me correctly, Clevo had locked that thing down tighter than a gnat's rectum and you could do almost nothing with a stock BIOS. @Meaker might remember something as well. Have you tried using ThrottleStop or XTU to see if the voltage registers are locked with both of those as well? Edit: I see you do have a PremaMod BIOS.
  15. How to read the CPU power phases? This isn't a Z270/Z370 system. I put the current and power limit all the way to the max. Only the voltage seems to be stuck. 1680 v2: 1.281V 1660 v2: 1.231V 4960X: 1.286V All the six cores CPU work fine at 40x all core. If that was a power phase issue, the system would be unstable instantly.
  16. Maybe … There was an issue with the CPU power phases. Try to get the boardview or schematic and compare the CPU power phase readings from it with those of the motherboard you currently have. This might help you identify the cause of the problem.
  17. Hello. Tested a Xeon E5-1660 v2 (just a 4960X with 100MHz more base clock). Same issue... Voltage stuck at 1.231V on this one. All 3 CPUs I tested, have the same issue. I do use a 660W PSU combination so power and current aren't limiting me. At 4.1GHz I crash on timespy CPU test at 00:08 and 00:10. Any help please? I just want to get higher clocks to remove the little bottleneck. Can you help @Mr. Foxplease
  18. x870e Hero shipped off for RMA finally to get a model with a non defective LCD ROG display... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A bit disingenuous in comparison, but Nova looks to potentially be a monster gaming chip with up to 33% gains over Arrow Lake and works at 8000 right out of the box but comparing it to a 285k capped at 250w and 6400 memory vs a 270k running 8000+ knocks a little of the glow off this comparison.... https://videocardz.com/newz/intel-nova-lake-s-28c-with-ddr5-8000-projected-to-deliver-16-to-33-higher-gaming-performance-than-core-ultra-9-285k-with-ddr5-6400 Can't wait to see @Talon's Day 1 impressions! 🤣 Did you hold onto any of your 5090s? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5080 pricing is getting slap happy as supply dries up as Nvidia is rumored to be gearing up the 5080 24GB (in theory)..... GB SFF 5080, which was a $999 MSRP model (and myself and @Mr. Fox snagged at great pricing) is now $1979.99 "on sale" at Microcenter rapidly going out of stock and not available elsewhere. Normal price is $2379.99. Cheapest 5080 overall actually available is the PNY 5080 is $2199.99 (IE PCPP, click through on available model and it is actually available) from BH.... Nvidia delists the 5080 from their own marketplace (following the previous 5090 delisting) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The bubble is real.....the seams are bursting.... When this adjusts down, it is going to be brutal.... Jensen's current model is unsustainable and instead of balancing and feeding both spectrums properly, he has pushed for maximum output, FOMO and channel stuffing to where companies are sitting on billions of dollars of unrealized hardware deployment, circular financing and this WILL pop..... Is AI here to stay? Absolutely and I am a proponent of it but this sell through model does not have long term viability.
  19. Can't afford the 4070 or any right now SuperMG, and as I said I need 16GB vram when I can (it's not all about processing power - multiple video FX I use need that ram - that's why the P5200 works if a little slowly right now) so it's a no go anyway. Thanks. Paypal via PM for the cable?
  20. On ebay or PayPal as family to avoid fees. Can do 469€ for the 4070
  21. Sadly I can't spare that right now, I finally realised - just repaired a blown Lenovo laptop and only yesterday after getting it working I ended ordering more parts; only thing original now on this Trigger's Broom is literally the outer shell - and when I can again I really want to hold out for 16GB, for my needs - but what's the best way to get hold of your cable? Paypal again? Appreciate your quick responses and all the info SuperMG.
  22. Last week
  23. Hi mattalienware, Here's a video I found on Youtube that takes you through the steps of modding the Dell Alienware NVidia drivers and set up a non Dell GTX980 GPU in an Alienware 17. I need to do this as well to add an MSI gtx980m to my Alienware 17R1 that has a broken GTX780m. Let me know how you went. Regards, Speakeasy
  24. Cici Chen Heatsinks for notebooks are on sale for Black Friday Cyber Monday on AliExpress. I just found this on AliExpress: https://a.aliexpress.com/_mM716b5
  25. Shouldn't they push more of the production back to the US to avoid the tarrifs? Does this mean we will see even higher prices years forwards for US consumers ? It seems so. Because this ain't normal. HP and Asus are moving PC production back to China as soaring component costs force a rethink Dell is also weighing a return According to Nikkei Asia, American PC giant HP and Taiwanese consumer electronics firm Asus have already moved some of their manufacturing operations back to China. Another leading PC OEM, Dell, is also said to be evaluating whether to follow suit and shift some of its PC production back to the Asian nation to offset rising component costs. Quite disturbing... Even 5060 class cards ain't holy..
  26. Welcome. Your board is the same N960Kx platform discussed here, and BIOS 1.07.09 already ships Clevo's own switches — no IFR patching needed. FPTW64 -bios -d bios.bin (dumps just the 16 MB BIOS region). Open it in H2OUVE → Setup → set Advanced Chipset Control and Setup Menu Insyde Full Show to Show → export → import → save as .fd. FPTW64 -bios -f mod.fd, then FPTW64 -greset, boot into setup and press F9. Afterwards: Memory profile = XMP profile 1, with Realtime Memory Timing and Realtime Memory OverClock set to Enabled. For the power limits: Platform PL1/PL2 Enable = Enabled, PL1/PL2 Power in mW (e.g. 125000 / 150000), plus a suitable Time Window. Two things worth knowing: your 2667 is just the JEDEC fallback of a 3200 XMP kit, not a hard lock — but memory OC needs H570/B560; HM470 can't do it, so check your PCH. And the i9-10900 is non-K, so ratio OC is off the table.
  27. Yes you can drill and put the slider in a spot you can use. I can do 479€ for the whole
