I am admittedly and obviously completely new to the depths of actual modification of computers. Upgrading sure put pin mods and using spi clip was a lot for someone like me that just doesn’t know. I was hoping to find advice, useful information and or links to downloads or tutorials. So far Maro97 has been the only person to try to offer help. The most knowledgeable person on here from across several servers wanted money and the said that I had to figure out the heatsink myself because I have a 1 at the end of my model and he couldn’t help (p870km1). Even when I asked about making the card read in bios Developer79 simply said I need to make changes in bios. I was really hoping this was a community that teaches others and could bounce ideas off of each other. I’m sorry Developer79 I’m broke and I can’t afford your wisdom. Again thank you Maro97 for trying to go above and beyond with offering a download link for a bios that would read the rtx 3080. Unfortunately wrong model. But thank you for being the only person to not make me feel pathetic and stupid.

I asked LG Korea via email about Aerominum and it's use in 2025 LG grams. They replied that indeed they used it but exclusively in LG gram 16 pro models in metal grey colour. It wasn't used in white nor black colour models, nor in any 17". Also they said they still adapted thickness and frame of display for 2026. So I guess the rtx 5050 arrow lake models do not use it because they have black colour. Also it's not yet used on lower body also in 2026 but may come for 2027. I had gotten curious because my gram pro 16 with lunar lake feels cold like aluminium on the display but usual warm on the rest of the frame. So if it feels cold it's the new Aerominum. That's also why the white LG gram pro was 1196 grams but the metal grey 1226g with identical internals. So if they go all body Aerominum it would add well over 100g, I guess the backplate will be kept in magnesium, but the keyboard frame could switch for 2027. That way may only add 40g or so. The backplate is paper thin I don't think they will change it.

Can the MXM 3.2 form factor card used in the Clevo X170SM work in with the Clevo P570WM?

There's a new Firmware 1.28, now. Maybe you should try it.

No, the drive will run at PCIe 3 speed in that system. If the price is the same, though, you could pick it up with the thought of maybe using it in a newer system in the future.

OK. Enough of the silly gamerboy normie crap. Back to speed trumps everything.

Why is the dynamic power limit so low? With that amount of power it will not even best a lunar lake at 40w with much more cores. Is it one fan only? Even then I think you could increase it by 50%. I think it's only needed to set overclocking lock to no then afterwards it's unlocked in throttlestop. With two fans could outright double PL1.

ha not with me they didnt! upgraded all the way from a 6700K to a 9900K in my Clevo machine 😄 suckaZ! and big thx to bro @Prema for that one 😛

As noted elsewhere, I have been impressed by the overall performance and power efficiency of my Arrow Lake gram 14 and was therefore disappointed by the 17" version of what should be the same hardware couldn't match the performance while making more fan noise. The gram 14T's power limits for the normal fan setting are shown below. These aren't changed when using the battery.

If you keep the GPU for a few years it will be worth doing. When you to move to a newer platform the GPU will be ready for it.

Dropping tRFC to 388 shaved a ns off of memory latency, but otherwise unremarkable by other measurements. There is very little difference between 6400 1:1 and 8000/8200 2:1 on Ryzen due to architectural limitations. Adding 3D cache makes it even less relevant. Y-cruncher is around ~1.0 second slower at 6400.

Only Alphacool has a waterblock, but it is available in multiple shops. While the Red Devil 9700XT is one of the best 9700XT's on the market, I am still debating whether I want to shell out $250 to $300 on the block. For the first time in years, none of my rigs are custom watercooled. They are either cooled by an air or AIO cooler. Mind you, I still have CPU blocks and tons of radiators I could use. The problem is, if I buy the block, I am going to have to get a two-dimm mobo and faster RAM - that is the chain reaction. I don't really want to invest more money into the 1700 platform. With that being said, I may still get the block with how prices of copper are shooting up.

Yeah, at the boot it goes full brightness, but in the OS it can be adjusted. I've noticed, too, that Inthel Graphics is still present.

Lunar Lake, I'm a bit less positive about my gram. After activation of all power saving options it limits all cores to 37w and puts 28w max power use. That stays even if you plug back in. Now for battery use that strategy really makes sense, anything above 3700w brings rather marginal gains at a high power envelope. But if plugged in I like my 37-45w power budget which is about the max the two fans can cool. Panther lake will be much better. First 25% more airflow from fans , second twice the die size so that alone should bring 50% more power budget at same cooling. So panther lake you should be able to run around 60-70w continuously without worries after repasting and modifying the pl1/2 limits. Arrow lake similar. But it makes sense dual fan increases the cooling power around 50%. So from 28w to 41-42 average. 28w was around the max possible with single fan on U intel chips after repasting (before 23-24w). Note repasting once a year is likely needed.... The plate leads to quite big punch out of paste. And yeah still 8° Prochot offset, cannot find out which setting in bios locks this. That's about 7% less power draw due to this. But then maybe it means less problems with cooling paste punch out.

How plentiful are waterblocks for the Red Devil? When I still had the AORUS 9070 XT the only one was an Alphacool block that was never available for purchase. It was always pre-order and/or out of stock. That played a significant part in my decision to get rid of it. I was sick of living with a hot air-cooled GPU. It was miserable. Radeon GPUs take "hot" to the next level of cray cray when it comes to air cooling.

Need your help.I want to buy new ssd (m2),i choise between PCIe 4.0 and 3.0 disks with a similar price (~100 usd).Will PCIe-4's speed work on 7730?

im 3rd at timespy with my CPU/GPU combo... n even the 7950x + 9060XT i would be 3rd too, n 9950x + 9060XT i would be 8th 😄 no new CPU needed when u have DDR4 with B-Die n totally optimized 🤤 n just noticed this score was with my old B350 board, i should do a run with the new B550... AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT 16 GB Grafikkarten Benchmark Resultat - AMD Ryzen 9 5950X,ASRock AB350 Gaming-ITX/ac

I have the Powercolor Red Devil 9070XT. I am trying to convince myself not to buy a waterblock for it. I am also limited by RAM. So my goal of getting into the top 15 TS (for my CPU/GPU) might be out of reach.

I’m playing Minecraft Patch Download right now and having a great time exploring new features. The update makes the game even more fun with better tools, blocks, and adventures. It’s exciting to build, mine, and survive in my world!

This heatsink comes from clevo laptops. You can unscrew the four screws and uncover the xbracket. I used this one for my RTX3000 for my AW17 R1. Needed some trimming to make it work. I doubt if it can work inside the M17x R4. You will have to remove it.

You will never make Gsync work on P870 series with rtx 3080, as the gsync cookie does not exist for that model from Nvidia.

i installed the Bios on my Alienware 18 but the GPU fans aren't spinning. only when it starts it will spin for 2 seconds and in the Diagnostics it works fine. but not in Windows
