clevo p870tm/tm1-g Official Clevo P870TM-G Thread

There's plenty of storage space; why would you spend money on such unnecessary things? I said the exact same thing when I saw it. π - Today

Are you referring to the whole forum or just the discussion of Clevo modding and stuff? I know Clevo has stopped making the crazy dtr type laptops:(

Hello. I got the RTX 4070, 4080 and 4090 to work in the P775TM1. Yes I'm late to announce it but they work with the backlight mod v2. No bios mods. Got 16700 in TimeSpy graphics for the 4080 Got 19800 to 20100 in TimeSpy graphics for the 4090. Running at 150W with the custom 2 in 1 air heatsink from Cicichen. Now I'll try to get the 40XX cards to work in the X170KM-G (PCie gen 4 + better single core)

Hard to keep up these days, so many changes. mVolt 0.33+ add many new features, including fan controls, new System Clock and Video Clock Offsets. No idea what they are for. Also have a new Xbar Ratio that allows even higher Xbar according to some. https://github.com/b00nz/mVolt/ @Mr. Fox Sorry to hear about your fuses, but glad it was just that and you'll have them fixed up with higher amp versions soon. -

HP Elitebook 8570W - is it still good ? Hardware modifications
Daedalus replied to GuitarG's topic in Custom Builds
not to be difficult, UK users cant see IMGUR pictures, so all i see is a blue block. Awesome progress though. Shame the 8570W journey ends. Did anyone uncover the HP LVDS cable pinout diagram? i seem to recall its in an older post (i'll go hunt for it. Happy to try recreate the cable, just need to get a bundle of LDVS to sacrifice π- 400 replies

I do not disagree. It should be priced under $200 or not at all. But, less money compared to their other offerings. Their new loss leader for losers. The notion that they would sell a 4GB version is beyond laughable and worthy of harsh ridicule. -

For less money? Depends on the eyes that see. Still heavly overpriced. Should be more like "more garbage for more money"π PC Partner warns of rising GPU prices and budget card shortages β analyst suggests makers are hiking prices beyond memory costs The question is whether price increases have benefited anyone beyond those early in the supply chain. Jon Peddie, who has been tracking the graphics industry for about 25 years, does not seem to believe that all the graphics card prices are due to increased costs. "[This all does] not necessarily equal an increase in profits, although I suspect it does, and the AIB suppliers are taking advantage of all of the press reports on higher memory prices and shortages to raise AIB prices more than the delta in memory costs," Peddie said. -
Hi, I am not planning to sell separately the components, sorry.

5i gen 10 Lenovo Legion 5i Gen 10 - fan zip noise when it spins up, normal?
jmitchell852 replied to Kitje's topic in Lenovo
That little zip when the fans spin up can happen and doesnβt necessarily mean the fan is failing, especially if everything else is running normally. Iβd keep an ear on it for now, but if the noise gets louder, turns into grinding/rattling, or starts happening constantly, Iβd definitely use the warranty rather than risk it. -

It's a pity that I do not need the entire chassis, but only the modified heatsink for a RTX3080 I recently ordered (I want to avoid the Chinese ones). If you would be interested in selling the heatsink only, please let me know, as I am based in the EU.

Confirmed only blown fuses. GPU is totally fine. I bridged the F1 fuse solder pads with a wire for testing and it's good to go. Now I just need the fuses and we'll be back to normal +1 fuse for extra capacity. -
Nothing has changed, unfortunately. They are still as stupid and incompetent as ever.

It may, but I don't have one of those. I got the 2080 super at a very good price but don't exactly have the funds to go buying newer cards. Plus, the 4070 mxm is a different shape and does not have the clevo power connector, so it would likley be a chore to fit into the laptop. I think anything newer than the 20 series also requires an updated cooler because of hole spacing differences. The dram chips are fine, the spacing is similar enough to the old 10 series card that I could just reuse the thermal pads with slight adjustments to spacing and make fine contact with all of them, the vrm is the main thing I am worried about. Old nvidia driver is an interesting idea, I never knew that the powerlimit setting was not intended. Seems rather stupid to lock useful functionality for no reason.

Mr. Fox replied to Mr. Fox's topic in Desktop Hardware
I am actually kind of surprised they have not already blown the way I have pushed this GPU for benching. I've run way more than they should have allowed me to, but Steel Nomad is famous for the massive power spike in the first couple of seconds and I think that experimenting with the 2000W vBIOS together with the shunt modding was the straw that broke the camel's back for the fuses. I normally have used a 800W or 1000W BIOS. -
Hello. Won't the RTX 4070 MXM fix your issue? It performs like the 3080 150W and it only uses 115W. You need to cool down its VRAM chips too. The GDDR6 on those can achieve 90C max if well cooled. The VRM don't get too hot and I never had any shutdown issue with it. Second option: You can use an older Nvidia driver, it's a bug that allows to set the power limit.

I upgraded my p775dm3 to a 2080 super, and it all works OK; however the modifications I had to do to the cooler and unholy stacks of thermal pads I had to make to get contact with the VRM makes me weary of the 200w power limit of the card, I also notice that the system does experience a hard shutoff if I run a GPU stress test for an extended period of time. (I assume the VRM is having a thermal limit trip). MSI afterburner and similar linux utilities do not seem to know much about the card, and I am not able to lower the power limit in them. (I did have to do the inf mod for Windows drivers and I am on Wayland in Linux, so perhaps it is just a coincidence and both of those two are actually causing the issue). I know it may sound stupid, but I am pretty worried about the VRMs overheating and/or the card drawing too much power from the laptop not desiged for it, so I would like to find a way to lower the power limit maybe to 180w or 150w. Anybody have a VBIOS for the clevo 2080 super with a reduced power limit? Secondly, I am a bit confused about BIOSs for this laptop, as I understand there are some BIOSs that change the ID such that the inf mod is not needed on Windows. Currently, the laptop has an older version of Dsanke bios (had it when I got it), probably pre-rtx. For a daily-driver, would it be better to update to the latest dsanke version (maybe one with rtx support) or to go with a Prema bios? What is considered to be the 'best' bios for performance option unlocking as well as daily stability and full functionality?
