*Official Benchmark Thread* - Post it here or it didn't happen :D
Papusan replied to Mr. Fox's topic in Desktop Hardware
Hmmm. Bad deals become even worse. $1000-1200 USD is already awful for 5080. This is disgusting. The situation in some regions has become so bad that retailers are finding new ways to sell the hardware. Therefore, some retailers have started bundling the GPUs with other components. For instance, the popular Taiwanese retailer, Cool PC, has started to sell the NVIDIA RTX 5080 in bundles or through full PC builds. You can't purchase the RTX 5080 as a standalone product from the retailer at the moment. While this trend isn't seen in all regions, it can become a common trend in the near future. Taiwanese Retailer Restricts RTX 5080 To Bundles And PC Builds, As GPUs Witness Another Price Hike "Land of the free"......... The real truth. This?🤫 New Yorkers who want to view Instagram or TikTok after midnight will have to verify their age. Almost everyone uses social media now; it's so commonplace that everyone from the very young to the very old uses it. It's true that numerous measures have been put in place in several countries regarding teenagers and children, as they are... -

I am working on stability testing UCLK and FCLK but it does seem to be a pretty bad bin. Even at 3000/3000/2000 its throwing OCCT errors at 1200mv VSOC. Just for fun I did try 3800/1900/1900 in 2:1 mode which actually booted. I don't think the A-die sticks are really the limiter here because they did pretty good in the Hydroc G2. Supposedly 7600MT is the cutoff point where 2:1 mode is as good or better than 1:1 mode at 6000MT so it might be worth some exploration if its actually stable. B&H is the place to really get a good used deal on a MSI laptop to be honest, especially now that I know they can fix the warranty to your purchase date if you ask MSI. Its a shame B&H does not carry that 9955HX3D / 5080 / 1600p model that Best Buy does, then it might actually go on sale every now and then. This one definitely has PTM as a friend of mine in the UK took one apart and replaced it with liquid metal. No reason they should not use PTM on everything Vector and above at this point. I actually don't play WoW on it at 4k because there is a lag feeling to the game, even on the 9955HX3D at graphics quality 1. So instead I used integer scaling 1200p when on the road and my external QHD panel when at my desk. No idea why it lags as otherwise the framerate reported is pretty good. I have not tried it in iGPU mode but I am guessing it would not be any better. -
What's the max gpu for an M17x r1?
commanderf replied to commanderf's topic in Alienware 17 and M17x
Thanks for the info, got a really nice deal on a lot of 3 MXM gpus, including a 680m, 870m, and an old fermi quadro card, so I think I'm set with options on what to put in this thing. Managed to snag a cheap SLI cable for an 18 r1 in case the old one doesn't work as well. -
For now I changed to 280W, because I have it for "free". Just changed cables and it works exactly as it should. And here is why adapter didn't worked - no third cable to ID pin... useless ! Next step I will check if new cable works correctly using some 4k 40pin edp display.

What phone are you daily driving currently?
Kitje replied to Katja's topic in Mobile Devices & Gadgets
Not posting from it but recently changed platforms from Android to iOS. I have an iPhone 16 Pro 256GB now. I have my own personal reasons for making the switch. Primarily being the camera making it a good complement to my mirrorless camera, and it doesn't exceed the size of my hands much either and it's also a pleasure to type on. 🙂 Finding a decent case has been problematic though but I have a few ideas up my sleeves to fix the two I got. -
180W on both and 1023A current

Hi, What is your Pl1 and Pl2 level? With unlimited you should have around 11k.
-
Hello everyone. How can I get 11k in CPU score in TimeSpy? I can get max 9.8k. the average clock speed says 4.59GHz and not higher. All the cores are set to 4.9GHz with a -75mV undervolt. My heatsink is a stock 3 heatpipes P775 one. 2 fat and 1 normal. If I add one extra heatpipe or If I replace the third small heatpipe with a wider one... will it improve the performance and I can reach 11k or not?

HP Elitebook 8570W - is it still good ? Hardware modifications
JadeRover replied to GuitarG's topic in Custom Builds
Correct, that's because there is no mux switch and non DC screen = LVDS lcd and the newest and fastest card that supports LVDS video signal is 980m. After maxwell generation Nvidia dropped support for LVDS. Therefore you would need a DC screen to upgrade to newer cards + backlight mods. Parts : - DC screen and cable - newer gpu - backlight cable mod Alternatively you can get someone to build a custom lcd cable to connect the lcd connector of the motherboard to any modern 30/40 pin edp display. Parts would be : - custom edp cable - standard laptop eDP display - new GPU - backlight mod cable Getting a custom edp cable has been done before, on taobao it is possible to order some custom ones based on the laptop lcd connector.- 390 replies

That backlight mod would still limit card options no? current non-DC screens have a 980M limit. if the backlight mod allows greater / newer options then that could give a pathway.- 390 replies

Greetings! Has anyone tried Insyde BIOS recovery on X170KM-G? I've got one from OriginPC with their unlocked 1.07.08 BIOS. Disabling `Ring Down Bin` caused boot failure, and the laptop powers down after ~30s on boot. Any help would be appreciated.

M17x r4 Quadro RTX 3000 upgrade
Hussain Alhadher replied to Hussain Alhadher's topic in Alienware 17 and M17x
I turned it off and sometimes i get code 43 in device manager. Im Not really sure if it is a driver problem although it seems to be working fine. -
Start>Settings>Search for graphics and turn OFF "hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling" or something along those lines, restart and enjoy

I have a different one but it boots. I haven't tested raw performance yet as I have like 6 other projects. I am assuming it should work fine though assuming the PWR mod fixes the TDP issue The AW18 R1/AW17 R1 stock bios is actually the best in terms of modern compatibility. Literally any card up to 4090 (SG in 18, PEG in 17) works. The only thing I would like to do wih 18/17 bios is 17: eDP backlight support for newer cards Holding END while turning on laptop to reset nvram 16gb dimm support above 4g decoding 18: same as 17 except eDp backlight support enable over 330w power adapter like m18xr1/r2 Priority is m17xR3 m18xR1 AW17 R1 AW18 R1 M18xR2 Then maybe my other collection (M11xR3, M14R1/R2, M15x, M17x, M17xR2, Area-51m R1/R2)

Mr. Fox replied to Mr. Fox's topic in Desktop Hardware
OK, I have the EVC 2.0 working again. Between the python scripts and helpful suggestions @Day/drifter provided and using AI/search I am back in business on Windoze 10 and Winduhz 11. In case it saves anyone else the heartache, the instructions are posted below. Since it fixed the software not detecting the device in both OSes, it seems to be the remedy. I think the WireView Pro 2 installation and firmware updates to it may have been what triggered the malfunction because it is also an I2C programmer. Ensure the device is running the latest firmware (0009 or later), as older versions like L4 may require specific driver configurations. The WinUSB driver is not installed correctly. To resolve this, manually configure the Windows registry: Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\usbflags\048357400200. Set the osvc value to 01 50. Create a new DWORD named NewInterfaceUsage. Do not change the values. Create a new BINARY named SkipContainerIDQuery with value 01 00. Uninstall the device in Device Manager, but do not scan for hardware changes. Unplug the EVC 2.0 USB cable, and plug it back in. Launch the EVC2 Software in Admin Mode. EVC 2.0 Fix.zip -
HELP!! I have Precision 7680 and shitty FHD 250nits screen... i bought (9Y5DM) 4k UHD screen and UHD cable.. should the uhd display work just plug and play or is there something to adjust with it. When the machine starts up, the red dell logo appears and disappears almost immediately. After that, nothing is displayed. The FHD display does work. I somehow believe that the cable is fine and the display works, but now there is some problem with the machine.. the bios has been reset, it doesn't help.. Both cables are connected to the machine /IR and EDP, which could be the problem, has anyone updated the display FHD -> UHD Touchscreen... Anyway, windows does recognize the display, intel UHD graphics.... help, my nerves are going... I dont know where these cables must go?? I have changed video bios in my RTX4000 ada, to lenovo rtx4000ada video bios... can that couse that video signal is missing in my UHD OLED screen??

I saw you had a 4090 in your 17, how it is performing? I assume Xvsion? I've focused on other hobbies but still like the idea and cramming one into one of mine.

HP Elitebook 8570W - is it still good ? Hardware modifications
JadeRover replied to GuitarG's topic in Custom Builds
Honestly no, we would need a board level rewiring to make the eDP from motherboard use DP_D position on mxm slot. Not viable in my opinion. What is viable however is to do a backlight mod, meaning you have to use an MXM gpu with regular DP (display port) on DP_C position. Then use a backlight v2 mod cable to get an image on the internal lcd. There's still a problem with windows drivers but that can be fixed as well. This is by far the best method and the mod cable is easy to install with no soldering.- 390 replies
