In any case, it will become much cheaper over time. Maybe by some miracle they will release a version for Clevo (it's almost impossible) or tell you what is needed for the initial functioning of this GPU.
-
Yes, according to the last link that was above, so don't worry too much about the backup, I think there will be no problems with this.

On the 10th cpu generation you can use 128GB 3200MHz without any problems, choose any convenient offers of memory modules based on the price and brand name. The 11th generation can only go up to 128GB 2933MHz, since there are some restrictions or compatibility issues when using a desktop processor and 4 so-dimm modules.

I do not think that in your case there is a strong need to make a backup, you previously mentioned that after the first power on, the system probably updated the firmware and now it is the latest version 1.07.08, which I previously provided to you in case any problems arise. With regard to Insyde instruments, this is corporate software that is supplied to certified companies for development and testing tasks only after signing a certain agreements, so it is not surprising that you did not find some download links on this website. If you are looking for H2OFFT (Insyde Firmware Flash Tool) or think you still need it, then I may can upload one of the versions for Windows but I don't remember if there is an option to make a dump.

@giltheone The Clevo version, if you still don't have it, I uploaded it here.

Hello, here you can find some guides on how to do it. There is also a slightly different firmware archive on the Clevo website and you can also use it as a backup or the most convenient one.

Well, I initially thought and wrote about it that in this case a lot depends on the specific tasks and applications used, and naturally everyone here must decide on their own, the 11th generation has at least better performance in some synthetic tests and games. With regard to greater stability, I think this is not entirely true, many users have not had any problems since buying a laptop, regardless of the processor used, and I had some correspondence with one person who uses 10900k and suffers from problems related to spontaneous reboots the devece, so it's something else. In addition, the author has no problems related to this, so it does not make sense to take this into account and follow some restrictions related to this. Your option of using an SSD instead of a wifi module also means that when using the 11th generation, you can generally be able to use a total of 5 disks and not have problems with pci-e 4 downgrade, and this is something that cannot be achieved if you use the 10th generation. But of course, everything is individual and depends on many factors and I mentioned this firstly.
-
The 11900k is a really good option, it gives the highest single-core performance and is quite equal in multithreading in most tasks, everything ultimately depends on the actual application and sufficient cooling that this processor certainly requires, let's not forget about pci-e 4.0 downgrade and disabling one of the slots on the 10th generation, in general of course everyone decides for himself.
-
No problem, I was hoping that you didn't have any serious problems along the way, the link in the message above has been updated.
-
I just noticed on your screenshot that the consumption does not reach the maximum 165 watts.. in any case, a deep modification of the bios for relatively new and any devices without the source files is quite difficult and I do not think that at least soon it will be possible and someone will be able to do it.
-
And it's pretty hard to disagree with this, it's always nice when the device has full native support and works as it should in all aspects, nevertheless, I think it's really worth just enjoying what you managed to get at the moment.
-
Beautiful results Max, do you still think that a bios modification is really necessary, or are you completely satisfied with what has been achieved in the end?
-
This is a pretty old using Sandy Bridge CPU laptop model, which version of the clevo control center will work and where to find it in this a particular case?
-
In that case, it's better to leave it as it is and just enjoy!
-
@giltheone I also uploaded the latest X170KM-G08 version of the bios from Sager for you and everyone here, you can start with this to see if there are any changes or use it as a backup. !Be sure to look at this article which concerns your specific case, it is important, filled with nuances and very interesting.
