No one helps where I live. They say they only repair certified brands, like what the heck. I hope it's a CPU issue. An "ebay" repair job is like 300-400€ lol and we aren't sure if they can repair. I'll try and see if one of my connections knows someone for repairs

I'll test the RTX 4090 MXM on the Clevo X170 when I'll get the heatsink for it. The 4090 works great on the Clevo P775TM1 with the custom heatsink. Great temps with my backlight mod v2

I'll buy an i7 10700K since it's an 8 cores CPU. If dual channel doesn't work then the motherboard is dead. I hope it's not the case. The motherboard costs more than the I9. Dead motherboard: It means that the ram traces are probably broken or a faulty PCH. I didn't see any suspicious liquid damage on the board CPU: It means the DRAM controller is dead.
-
So the motherboard is dead?
-
So single channel works in slot 1 and 2. When I try single channel for slot 3 or 4. It doesn't boot. CPU socket pins, everything looks clean. Nothing is broken or missing. Used an air blower and a brush to clean the socket, still the dual channel doesn't work. Is that a motherboard issue or a CPU issue?

Hello. I'll try with another CPU. Like the 10100F. I have a none bent socket. Found one CPU locally for 35 after taxes
-
I try this with 2 slots (1 and 2) in single: 1x8GB (2666MHz) works at 2133Mhz, boots to OS 2x8GB (2666MHz) works at 2133MHz, boots to OS 16GB (3200MHz) + 8GB (2666MHz) works at 2133MHz, boots to OS 2x16GB (3200MHz) doesn't work, no boot. 1x16 (3200MHz), doesn't work, no boot. Anything in dual channel, no boot. All the RAM sticks get hot in the touch, so they are getting powered. Is that a CPU problem?

Hello. I bought a Clevo X170SM-G with 10900KF and RTX 3080 16GB with 32GB of RAM. It has the watercooling 2in1 heatsink. Laptop wasn't posting so I reflashed it with a 1.07.04 stock clean ME bios. Still no boot. So I had to remove the RAM from slot 2/4 and I only used one slot and it worked. The laptop only posts with single channel configuration and it runs at 2133MHz. The previous owner told me that the laptop was working perfectly fine and he didn't use it for a week and the laptop wouldn't post. I cleaned the CPU pads. There were some stains but this didn't help. Is the motherboard dead? Or is the CPU DDR controller dead? All the memory slots are working in single channel.

Hello. To flash the BIOS on the X170, I can flash any BIOS .rom from XMG/SAGER/Eurocom? Are they clean ME?

Alienware 17 R1 120Hz and M17X R4 120Hz are good to go for the newest RTX Ampère and Ada cards in pure UEFI. ATM, the RTX Turing also work in the M17X R3 with a modded BIOS. The memory chips reach to 98C and the GPU temps is like 85C max. I don't use PTM7950. All the GDDR6 I have can achieve to 100C. The VRAM throttles at 105C I believe.

Just on the M17X R4. It boots, displays and drivers install. In pure-UEFI. I don't have the M18X R2 because it's a LVDS system. The 4070 would be great to be used on the M4800 as it's the a 15.6" laptop that can use a 1080p 120Hz display and has AVX2 support.
-
Yes mine. The price is high because of the ebay fees. Yes with NVCLEANSTALL you can remove the Nvidia bloatware. The custom heatsinks can be adapted with your MXM card. Yes I have a 3080 on my M17X R4 eDP 120Hz. Runs cool and great. Got 11300 in TimeSpy graphics. Ran the 4070 in m17x R4 and Dell precision m4800, got 12400.

Hello. The RTX 5000 and RTX 3080 will only work in Switchable Graphics. So you need a modded BIOS to change the video's option to SG (Switchable Graphics) Turing and Ampere GPUs do not have any LVDS PEG capabilities. They can only do eDP output. Yes these cards work with iGPU SG, not in PEG on that laptop. These cards work in PEG eDP only with the M17X R4 120Hz eDP version + backlight mod. If you're limited by the iGPU, you can overclock the display to 75Hz using CRU software. But please be careful with that. For the drivers installation, just use the NVCLEANSTALL software, it's easy. For the cooling. For the RTX 3080, you need to find a custom heatsink for that offset. I tested so much Turing to Ada MXM cards on more than 10 systems. I do have one RTX 4070 MXM available, still has warranty.

Hello. I want to buy a X170KM-G without CPU and without SSD. Want one with: 16GB of RAM maximum. RTX 3060 maximum. Dual 330W or 780W PSU (can pay +80usd extra for it) Can do 750USD PayPal direct quick payment. Shipping can pay 150USD for Canada/USA Shipping can pay 30€ for Europe It's to test my RTX 4090 MXM. I do need to get the custom heatsink for it and it'll cost more like 300USD...

The test was the Dell Precision M6800 (x8) vs P775TM (x16) in TimeSpy graphics only. Maybe the Dell is too old for the 4090 but good for the 4080. (16100 graphics) 330W PSU minimum for both systems.
