HP Elitebook 8570W - is it still good ? Hardware modifications
FrancoTecno replied to GuitarG's topic in Custom Builds
the SPD data on these chinese modules is pretty uncertain, because the reported latency in miliseconds contained in the SPD is lower than the official specificacion by micron in that PDF... even the jedec profiles are very uncertain because they dont have a 1866MHz jedec profile when the DRAM chips are officially of 1866MHz- 403 replies

HP Elitebook 8570W - is it still good ? Hardware modifications
FrancoTecno replied to GuitarG's topic in Custom Builds
i leave the official PDF of those DRAM family chips, the -107 revision (D9RVX) are rated for 1866MHz at 13-13-13, a jedec profile that matches with the DRAM oficial specificacion isnt specified in the SPD of these fake DIMMs, so probably you need to adjust primary timings and secondary ones manually to make them working at 1866, right now i managed to make them working at 2133MHz, but i need more research into the official PDF to make a fitable timing table at 2133 according with the oficial specifications of the DRAM modules to avoid stability issues micron4Gb_DDR3L.pdf- 403 replies

I got it working, a bit of a iffy thing but it works now. The scripts that are in the tutorial didn't work for me, I had to remote into my laptop and run the scripts manually... Could be my fault bug I'm not complaining.

The Dark Hero fan works amazingly well. I ran it full blast on my test bench. I'm going to miss that feature. I noticed the fan would blow air strongest at a certain point on the fan, and I rotated the fan in the orientation where the ram sticks were getting hit with the best breeze. PS: For some reason BestBuy sent me (2) 9950X3D2's. 💀 I guess it's meant for me to find a 2,200FCLK unit! 😂 Still waiting on motherboard. -

Nasty finger salute to the Green Goblin, with both hands. People that care just won't use their cancer drivers that block mVolt+ from working. I'm still using 576.28 and I generally won't play games that require that I install a specific driver or newer. It's a matter of principle for me, and that matters more than falling in line with their wishes. Same reason I won't play the crapified new games that require Secure Poot and TPM to be enabled for some garbage anti-cheat bloatware to work. They can kiss my post-defecation, smelly, unwashed posterior orifice. -

Have seen similar before.... I look at my older Maxwell series GPUs sleeping in the drawer. This bring back old bad memories... Half crippled due beautiful driver love from Nvidia. NVIDIA neutralizes MVolt+ on the RTX 50 series: its 616.56 driver blocks the power limits of the GPU and GDDR7 memory NVIDIA has wasted no time in shutting down one of the most interesting features of MVolt+ software for the RTX 50 series. The new GeForce 616.56 WHQL driver blocks and prevents the use of MVolt+'s independent controls in... The memory shortage won't end as soon as expected: SK hynix extends it until the end of 2030 Forecasts that predicted a possible easing of the memory shortage by 2028 are starting to look insignificant, and very bad news is coming from South Korea. Kwak Noh-jung, CEO of SK hynix, now asserts that the market will remain strained... NVIDIA breaks all records: it approaches $100 billion per quarter thanks to AI NVIDIA continues to break its own financial records and is now on the verge of reaching a figure that just a few years ago seemed unthinkable -

I was wondering if you were gonna catch that reference 🤣 Looks like that monster SP chip is working out quite nicely! 5.9 benching and 8800 locked in tight....nice. I know your rig would provide some bleeding edge data for WoW out in the Xpac where it counts (I'm looking at you Eversong Woods). Just spectacular results @Mr. Fox! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yet again, do not sleep on the 9070xt: -

My ram has arrived. This stuff has got to be better than that Corsair 6000c30 A-Die kit. I sure hope so at least! This stuff was $500.00. These sticks were manufactured 12/2025. Since this is much much later Hynix A-Die, I'm hoping 8,000+ will be easy for it. All of the reviews of this ram are from 2022/2023 when Hynix A-Die was in its infancy. (Fingers crossed) -
Yes battery should be at 100%. But I have an issue on TimeSpy. Before TimeSpy, I test the CPU max TDP. It does 68W as I set and after timespy, the max TDP is now 44W max. What?? Something triggers in the TimeSpy and resets the PL values. Is that normal? The average clock speed for the entire time was 3GHz. Rather than 4-4.1GHz. Average CPU temperature was 78C. After, I put it in sleep mode and wake it. The max TDP is now 68W...

I put up a video comparing ram air cooling via 4.5 different methods. Stock sticks = 76c. Asus 60mm fan = ~49c Noctua top shelf performance quiet 60mm fan on Asus bracket = ~49c Thermalright ram cooler = ~42c I've mastered the art of posting videos when I'm battling the flu or covid, lol.

Spot on bro. Hope all is well with you 🙂 PCs, consoles and hardware is clearly all too cheap in the US and nvidia finally pleased Microsoft. NVIDIA Game Ready Drivers drop Windows 10 support in November The first regular NVIDIA Game Ready Driver without Windows 10 support is scheduled for November 2026. This means users who remain on Windows 10 can continue using the October driver, but they will no longer receive subsequent Game Ready optimizations and regular driver updates. Trump's new round of tariffs could hit semiconductors, laptops, gaming consoles and data center servers -

I'm messing around with getting my rtx 4080 mxm module put into my clevo P775TM1-G but I can't get the display to work properly. I've tried just about everything. I have the backlight mod from supermg, but when I try to install the driver I'm met with a rainbow line screen and nothing else. The display works fine without a driver, and trying to do the edid manipulation doesn't fix the problem either. Any information would be appreciated. I got the gpu from a Morefine g1. The laptop has the 9900k and the 4k 60hz gsync display.

Whew when the nvidia approved (he was using the 5090FE OEM version from his 5090FE) tentacle goes boom...... Tentacle at fault? PSU side at fault? The fact three of them melted down makes me think it was a cascade failure of some sort but damn.... My response is always, "please show me where you can get this for even close to this price and we can talk," Somehow their mindset is stuck 12-18 months in the past. I can respect not wanting to pay the new prices and opting to either wait for the market to correct after the eventual bust or just resigning from the PC enthusiast scene. What I can't respect is catching an attitude or some sense of entitlement to previous pricing or even less because you feel a certain way and belittle sellers. One of my biggest pet peeves is still when someone feels the need to poo poo over seller's threads on forums because they don't like the pricing, the person or sometimes both (exhibit A: OCN FS forums). ------------------------------------------------------- Remove case specific games that love X3D and the 270k is a beast...an absolute beast when properly tuned. 14900KS which had been tuned every which way beat the 270k but once I dialed it in memory and 5.6 just like that it was neck and neck with the 14900KS in WoW in CPU limited scenarios. Seriously, expecting some major magick from Intel with Nova and bLLC to level the playing field in those case specific games that love that cache. -
Hello. Does anybody have a binned 9900KS that can do 5.1GHz all core at 1.29-1.3V or 5.2GHz all core at 1.3V? I can pay 430USD for one thru PayPal as services. Let me know, thanks.

Using CPU-bound settings, the 270K Plus holds its own against the 9950X3D2 in this benchmark. This is a run by Zero989 at oc.net and a run with my 5080 system using the same settings against his X3D build. I actually played the game last night for about an hour and it was extremely boring. (I have never cared for this genre, so that comes as no real surprise.) I should have just stuck with the free demo. It was a waste of money for me, but it was super cheap so no great loss. What you see in the benchmark is the closest you will get to experiencing something mildly stimulating when playing the game. 9950X3D2 270K Plus -

Here is something interesting. I normally use a hardware KVM to switch between computers, but using two at once with a KVM is not a solution to use both systems simultaneously. You are merely switching from one to the other. I decided to give Synergy 3 a go and it works flawlessly for using a single keyboard and mouse on two computers connected to separate monitors. It functions indistinguishable from using a single computer with two monitors. Really useful. Similar to the old "Mouse without Borders" utility, but better and a lot more features. https://symless.com/synergy/download
