I ended up getting that kit just like you had previously. Amazing deal! Heck yes! My rams are sweet, but dang they need the JUICE! But now that I’ve tested the Corsair kit, and now my G.Skill 6800c34 kit. I’ll hopefully be able to fully appreciate the bin. This kit is a G.Skill 6000c26@1.450v (2x16GB) @electrosoft You ever buy from MBPC.GG? Looks like a small shop that sales used premium parts. They had a 6000c26@1.45v kit listed for $439.99, I used a -$10 off promo and got it for $429.99. https://mbpc.gg/products/g-skill-trident-z5-neo-rgb-32gb-ddr5-6000mhz-cl26-36-36-96-desktop-gaming-memory-ram-2x16gb?variant=53407464554785&country=US¤cy=USD&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=21505374951&gbraid=0AAAAA-CjMDB6Y2qkjRbGAWsMtZp-CYEda&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI3LDl4ZjelgMVujgIBR0AHjBcEAQYASABEgKr6fD_BwE -

I only have the 6000 C26 V-Color dual rank kit that I never would have purchased had I known it was dual rank. It's unable to run above 6200. It's garbage and the only thing the dual rank seems to accomplish is limiting memory clock and adding latency. Not good. But, it totally makes sense that it would be the outcome. You've got twice as many memory chips for the CPU to manage, more circuits and traces, all of which contribute to hindering speed and taking more time for the data to go from point A to point B because it has to travel twice the distance. It doesn't work well like it did with DDR4 running at significantly lower speeds. -

Man, while I am pretty happy with my G.Skill 6800c34 XMP kit. As you can see they scale with voltage, and they at least do the job with some voltage. Which is great. But they just can’t compete with these fancy/elite 6000c26@1.400/1.450v kits. There is a kit that’s really interesting me, I saw some people running the 2x32GB 6000c26@1.400v Gskill kits. And they’re running 6400c26 tuned timings with merely 1.470v 😂 It looks like the 2x32GB kits seems to scale a tiny little better with less voltage than the 2x16GB 6000c26 kits do. Has anyone tried dual rank performance on AMD? I know I’m all in to 1:1, I’ll get bored with it sooner or later and move to 1:2 😁 -

M18xr2 with unlocked a11 by swick/ Svl7 with 3940xm 32gb of 1866(needs to be 2133mhz but impossible to find anymore) Using and xvision rtx3080mxm that the vbios is locked to 115w. Trying to get a great firestrike score with oc from the bios. Seems I will have to use Intel XTU for tuning my oc. Did you download the a11 from ssj92 on this site or another? Thanks- 29 replies

Busta Bloodnut replied to emcze's topic in Alienware 18 and M18x
I have A11 Unlocked also but the mod is sv17. Not sure if thats the same guy or two different modders as im not informed too much on that sorta stuff. I just downloaded that one since it was the first one I seen. When I have it enabled it just defaults as 32. Last time i changed it (I forget if I was setting it higher or lower than 32) it blue screened before windows even started and wouldn't turn on so i had to resent CMOS and im not going through that again lol. What mods do you have? All same as me? Even the optional ones? Also which CPU do you have?- 29 replies

The final words (19:06).... Jensen was spot on. Pay more... Get more. Less than this and you got almost nothing. DLSS 5 revives SLI setups: up to 127% more FPS using a second RTX for Neural Rendering The high performance cost of DLSS 5 Neural Rendering has led to SLI configurations gaining popularity among modders. -

Just read your post and was hoping you might inform me as to which unlocked bios you are using on the M18xr2 ? I have the same mods as you using 3080. On overclocking I can only set the flex ratio override to a max of 25 and yours is set to 32 ? I know that the 3940xm and 3920xm have differing available settings are you using 3920 on the m18xr2 in the pics ? I am using Swick unlocked A11 Thanks- 29 replies

Yeah that is out of my neck of the woods at 1.7 VDD. I stick to 1.5 max and let the chips fall where they may still #2 at 1:1 is a 6400 beast. If you're hell bent on 1:1 that is the way I would go. Curious to see what #1 and #2 do at 8000+ maxed out for some H2H "which one stays and which one goes," game show elimination. 🤣 -
I appreciate the sharp humor in your dictionary. It got me thinking about social media's dark side. For a side project, I used https://famoid.com/ to get some real followers. The gradual delivery and no-password policy felt secure, and it did the job without fuss.

tps3443 replied to Mr. Fox's topic in Desktop Hardware
😬 It seems like the jump from 6400c28 to 6400c26 needs significantly more voltage, I am using 1.700v VDD currently. Anyone else try this profile before? What sort of voltages did you require? I do not know why, but for some reason I do like the 2167 chip #2 better, the memory controller is more fun to play with. I will enjoy it for another 1-2 days, and then I will pop Chip#1 back in for 2200fclk and more testing! And if I find myself where I cannot live without Chip#2, then we will go from there! lol. But 6400c26 is amazing to me. 1.700vdd is high, but keeping the 1.400vddq keeps temps realistic with a fan. (3) cycles on VT3 and sticks were 45c. - Last week

OMG..... 🤣 -
That's unfortunate 😞 I'd presume maybe the R3 and r4 share similarities with the Msata slot.

None of them (NVIDIA or AMD) are genuinely good products that are priced to value. They're all grossly overpriced, flawed, poorly designed and compromised products that are destined for premature failure and fail to perform adequately based on what the pricetag suggests they should, including 5090. The current GPU market represents the most horrific example of poor value the world has ever seen. If something goes wrong, there is maybe a 10% chance your warranty will be honored, because the companies that build them are universally dishonest. Totally not worth the cost. The 4090 is better than 5080, but if you can even find one for sale it's nearly as overpriced as 5090 (double what an overpriced 5080 costs). -

Ironically I bought a RTX 5080 in early 2025 before all the AI hype but returned it because it felt weird going from 24GB RTX Titan SLI to RTX 5080. I was hoping to find a 5090 but at this rate I might as well wait for the 6090 😄 -

Yeah, 2200 over 2167 for sure Hey brother, good to see you. Nice setup! Yeah, I agree with you. I don't like the newer versions of Cinebench. R23 and R20 are both better IMHO. Now is the worst possible time to try to jump onto the 50 series bandwagon, but things are going to get worse before they get better. Maybe you can find a good 5080 or 5090 second hand from a trustworthy seller that isn't going to try to scam you. -

I sadly couldn't find any more information maybe I didn't do a very deep search. Only info I got was from Kela and we chatted in DMs. I wanted to purchase but the first revision is in pure iGFX so nope. No mux, no PEG. It only has one NVMe slot lol They also have different heatsinks for different MXM. X-VSION cards are good but I didn't rely on them for the backlight mod. They didn't care back. Embedded use
-
I already tried multiple MXM cards years ago in my X170SM, I didn't just make up the story that it's not wired in the mxm port. Don't rely on X-VSION to do anything. Have you purchased their latest laptops? If so how are they?
-
Words are word, need certitude. Future people won't know about this, till now, I couldn't find information online. Don't want someone to spend thousands on that system. At least I tested on both SM and KM models. Even in iGPU it doesn't work (KM). E1 - E4 power pads don't provide all the needed power and I can't solder (risky to damage both motherboard and card) Kela and me tested with bunch of different GPUs so we are 100% certain that regular cards don't work. A guy in ebay chat tried to lie to me about KM being "more compatible" so I had to test for good and for once. Even the GTX Clevo cards don't work well in KM... They remade the Clevo X7200 in terms of compatibility which sucks. I had an idea which is to make a cable that translates to a flex cable and slide them to E1 to E4 pads. We need 19.5V-20V 10A for the MXM. But that's also risky, the flexcable could burn... X-VSION allowed me to send an email to their PO about the "new revision". I hope X-VSION fix their laptops with pure PEG compatibility or with advanced optimus (and also add better VRMs for their motherboard).

Hiya fellas. Good to see everyone around here. Thought I'd drop this here as I had a little time to play with my desktop. BTW am I the only one who doesn't like the new Cinebench 2026? I feel like R23 was better. I like seeing all the threads populate the image. W7-3465X 3.2Ghz all core stock > 4.3Ghz all core (28-cores). Single thread should be around 5-5.2ghz somewhere (I didn't check to see if it was actually sticking). I have a VM open and some other stuff but doubt it'd drastically change the score. Also got a Z890+270K Plus to play with next week. Still no 5000 series gpu though lol
