Nvidia-vBIOS-Clock-Power-Tweaker - PASCAL TESTING NEEDED !
JadeRover replied to JadeRover's topic in Components & Upgrades
What does the GPU-z windows show ? Normally the edits from the program to base and boost clocks should be visible there. -
Nvidia-vBIOS-Clock-Power-Tweaker - PASCAL TESTING NEEDED !
JadeRover replied to JadeRover's topic in Components & Upgrades
Huh, I wonder at what voltage my vram runs at as it does 9Ghz on my P4000 That's so strange, okay well I will investigate, I'm sure I can get it working as iMac vbios for Px200 manage to overclock them no problems. I will make a completely custom vbios without using my app, I'm annoyed it doesn't work, I though the app could be universal... -
Nvidia-vBIOS-Clock-Power-Tweaker - PASCAL TESTING NEEDED !
JadeRover replied to JadeRover's topic in Components & Upgrades
Well that's odd, I compared both files and all the data is correctly written. I didn't know the vram had speed bins associated with voltage, where do you read the voltage of VRAM ? Here's a 1960Mhz core and 4504Mhz vram bios that should work (if the ram can overclock well) p5200_dell_OC.bin And here is an MSI "max-P" version of the P5200 that can boost up to 1911Mhz @160w P5200_max_P.bin -

Version v1.4 is out, you can now edit pascal desktop cards Release v1.4 | Nvidia-vBIOS-Clock-Power-Tweaker · JadeRover/Nvidia-vBIOS-Clock-Power-Tweaker -
Agreed, this is probably not the right thread to dive into this but the most powerful clevos DTRs with an MXM slot really stretch the definition of being a laptop. I would say zbook 17 g5 and g6 are the best MXM laptops as they have 6 cores and 8 core cpu options and an all metal chassis. Though this is probably me having a liking to the quality of workstation laptops.

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.- 397 replies

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.- 397 replies

Quadro P4000 Mobile Oc vbios. Working and tested.
JadeRover replied to Ralph's topic in Components & Upgrades
@ssergey931 Yes that is because the iMac vbios has eDP on the correct spot for the zbook 17 g3. Other vbios have eDP signals on the wrong spot resulting in black screen if dGPU mode is selected. You can use my vbios overclocking program to get more performance out of it. I can get 1898Mhz on my core and 4504Mhz vram with my programs vbios. You feed it this iMac OC vbios and then select the clocks you want. The program only modifies clock tables, display tables are untouched and you will still be able to use the screen in dGPU mode. -

Nvidia-vBIOS-Clock-Power-Tweaker - PASCAL TESTING NEEDED !
JadeRover replied to JadeRover's topic in Components & Upgrades
Very nice, with an overclock you should get >1070M overclock levels of performance! Yes, I saw your post on techpowerup. It should work. If it doesn't send me your vbios and I will take a look. -

JadeRover replied to JadeRover's topic in Components & Upgrades
Yes it happens with unsigned exes. You can download the source code, download python 3 and run CPR_MAIN.py and it will run the code directly without going through the packed exe. I see what you mean. The way the program works is by allowing the card to reach higher limit clocks. Meaning it will figure out the frequency/voltage points. It's not like msi afterburner's clock slider that uses the same voltage points but for higher clocks. For example, my p4000 stock vbios gave a maximum of 1240mhz @ 0.750v After the overclock from my program is applied it reaches 1898Mhz @1.050v. Unfortunately I doubt I will be able to obtain voltage control, I only found one person talking about voltage points and I could not find correlations with the clock table. -
(Potential) Fix for "pwr" limit of MXM GPU
JadeRover replied to JadeRover's topic in Components & Upgrades
Hi, Yes this is the same method as on this thread but the mod is done on the motherboard. Counting the pins on the second picture, pin 27 is actually the 9th pin after the big ground pad of MXM slot, so his method is also blocking the PWR_LVL signal from being sent to the MXM gpu. -

JadeRover replied to GuitarG's topic in Custom Builds
I checked again on the 8570w boardview and the LCD connector is wirred to DP_D of the MXM slot : Meaning no need for vbios mod I was wrong. If you have DC screen evey GPU with eDP support should work. What is the problem with 1070m @KbX ? no image ?- 397 replies

HP Elitebook 8570W - is it still good ? Hardware modifications
JadeRover replied to GuitarG's topic in Custom Builds
Unfortunately no, since non DC screen go through the LVDS port of the gpu and all pascal cards and above (including 1070m) don't have LVDS pins, no vbios can fix that. What it should do is make the 1070m work on DC screen since it wasn't possible before due to eDP placement mismatch in vbios. The 8570w doesn't use integrated graphics and the internal lcd goes directly to the dGPU if I am not mistaken.- 397 replies

That is due to a vbios mismatch with the mxm slot regarding eDP placement on the 8570w. What he needs is a custom vbios that has eDP on DP_C position of the card as that's where it is located on the mxm slot of the laptop. Most laptops have eDP on position DP_D of the mxm slot so most vbios have it set to that. He can use this Macrumors vbios for 1070m that has eDP on DP_C (that luckily exists) : https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/imac-2011-maxwell-and-pascal-gpu-upgrade.2300989/page-10?post=30799977#post-30799977 I discovered this when my p3000 worked with the internal display of my zbook 17 g3 (eDP on position DP_C) once I used another "Mac compatible" vbios- 397 replies

V1.3.4 released. GitHub updated. Anyone with a pascal mobile card, a 1.8 volt firmware flasher like CH341a and spare time is welcome to use the program and try creating some custom vbioses. If you encounter issues I will ttake a look as to improve the program ! I can also use some testers for quadro P6 and P106m so that I can look into creating completely custom vbios for these cards.
