  1. Alright the motherboard is faulty... I tried with an i3 10100F known for working with dual channel memory. Same issues as before. For some reasons it booted with 1x16 3200MHz at 2666MHz and 2x16 3200Mhz at 2666MHz in single. It also means the I9 10900KF is half faulty. It couldn't run a single 16 nor 2x16gb. Can only run 2666MHz sticks at 2133MHz
  2. Yes I saw that. It's a LVDS display since the 120Hz requires a 50 pins cable.
  3. 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
  4. 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
  5. 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.
  6. So the motherboard is dead?
  7. 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?
  8. Hello. I'll try with another CPU. Like the 10100F. I have a none bent socket. Found one CPU locally for 35 after taxes
  9. 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?
  10. 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.
  11. Hello. To flash the BIOS on the X170, I can flash any BIOS .rom from XMG/SAGER/Eurocom? Are they clean ME?
  12. 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.
  13. 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.
  14. 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.
  15. 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.
  16. 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.
  17. 64GBPS (x8) vs 128GBPS (x16). X8 runs great on 4080 but on 4090 I get 4080 performance, maybe I did something wrong there. PCIe 4 x8 = 3 x16 PCIe 4 x4 = 3 x8 (Oculink speed)
  18. In Passmark, the average single thread performance is higher on the 11900k than the 9900k. 9900k 2800-2900 vs 11900K 3400-3500 In gaming not so much difference other than the high wattage on the 11th gen CPU for 5/6FPS gain... While being on the same 14nm node... For the heatsink mod. I'll just do one straight heatpipe connected between the CPU and GPU for a shared cooling design. Without adding a 0.5mm copper plate since I'll remove 3 of the tiny heatsinks on the CPU heatsink. If the first heatpipe is enough, I won't add a second one.
  19. So at 4.7GHz and 4.8GHz all core, which CPU does the best (in terms of temperature) at the same clock speed? I'm interested to get the binned 9900K which is the 9900KS. Or should I just ditch this laptop and get the X170KM with 11700K?
  20. So for example The 9900K/9900KF => 4.9GHz all core thermal throttle The 9900KS => 4.9Ghz all core no thermal throttle? Can the laptop handle 5.0GHz all core without any thermal throttle?
  21. Is the 9900KS running at 5GHz all core at 140W? Is it better than the 9900K/9900KF since it's highly binned? Meaning we could do -130mV undervolts? I made my backlight mod v2 (with brightness control) work on this P775TM laptop and I got the custom heatsink from Cicichen. Can get 54k graphics points in Fire Strike.
  22. Yes the CPU speed does give extra fps in heaven benchmark. Tested with multiple CPU configurations and overclocking helps a lot. I get max 160W on the CPU when I use ThrottleStop and TimeSpy bench I used thermal glue 2w/mk, the best one that sticks very well. Some videos on YouTube, people used that thermal glue on the edges + used some thermal paste in the middle of the heatpipe and it was effective for them. I wanted to use a copper plate to elevate the heatpipes since there are some tiny heatsinks on the right of the heatsink
  23. Thanks. The heatpipe improved my TimeSpy score from 9.7/9.8k to 10.2/10.3k. so it does something. 4.9GHz all cores, -80mV I ran Heaven benchmark, it uses both CPU and GPU at the same time. GPU max temp was 80C and 88C in the hot spot. Got 390FPS in 1080p Ultra, no thermal throttle on the GPU. So can I just: use a 0.5mm thickness copper plate, glue it on the 3 CPU heatpipes and glue one straight heatpipe on top of the plate, all the way to the bottom GPU core side? I can improve my clocks if I do this.
