Mmyee soo.. quick update: 1. I ran mats/mods and umm I got this: - i had to create a usb stick with mats/mods (lots of tutorials online) - plugged it into the laptop and changed the boot order so it would boot off of the usb stick ... but it didnt work - changed uefi boot to disabled and it did eventually seem to boot off of the stick (I say eventually because I had absolutely no image throughout this entire process... I just waited for the laptop to turn off) - here is the report: report-1080.txt I ran version 400, not sure if its right or not or whatever... no idea... despite the insane number of write errors (not sure if I ran mats/mods wrong or what) ... chip C1 seems weird... idk 2. I tested the gpu with a multimeter and all voltages seem to be fine: - Vcore: 0.7 - Vmem: 1.35 - other stuff: seems to be ok? not sure, i tested all of the inductors, i can add all of them if maybe that sounds like it could be a problem 3. Put everything back together... aaand... there is no fricking image anymore :(((( just the backlight turns on .... and also my laptop now BEEPS... not sure if post is different when you disable uefi or what ... I tried removing the cmos.. waiting... then plugging it back in in hopes that the bios would reset ... but there is no way to know for sure because the monitor is BLANK... (i tried holding down the fn + d keys but that trick never really worked for me... screw you and your weird key combinations Clevo)... The laptop gasps for life when it turns on: - turn on, run for like 5 seconds ... turn off - turn back on, fans whoosh once (not sure if it has anything to do with the modded dsanke bios im using, ive seen this happen before) and then it runs with no problem, screen backlight turns on, no image!!! Holding down keys in this state comes with a faint ... beep? i would call it idk, a muffled sort of beep or tap... not sure why ... not even sure if im booting into windows, not sure whats happening behind the scenes... And also there is sometimes a weird ... gurgle or idk bzzz sound that happens only once (it's probably the gpu screaming for help) Because I am incredibly smart and definetly not a dumbass I tried this trick: press windows key + write down spotify + enter + space key... hoping something would happend (would confirm im inside windows) ... but spotify acts weird sometimes, especially when you come out of a shutdown and not sleep :))) Of course it did not work, my life could not be THAT easy. I have not tested an external monitor ... I will, hopefully tomorrow or at some point, but I am closer to acceptance than ever, maybe I'll throw the entire laptop out the window at this point :)) If yall recognise any of this behavior or have any (and I mean any, I'm desperate) kind of suggestions, please let me know 🙂 Thanks!

I see, thanks! I will look into it! 🙂

Romania, close enough :)))

I used this video specifically to run mods/mats :))) thank you though! Ummm ... I guess I could do that, I'm not that afraid of a multimeter I guess I dont really trust local shops to be honest, but maybe I'll find somebody who knows their stuff Mmyee... :)) I'll think about it a bit more ... I don't mind the price of the gpu as much as i mind the 250$ I have to pay for the heatsink :((

I wonder if reflashing the vbios would help in any way (yes I am in the bargaining stage of grief, acceptance will eventually come but untill then i wanna exhaust all other options). Has anybody dealt with this before or? (also yes i keep bumping the post maybe more people will see it and respond :))) )

I ran mats/mods just to see if maybe its one singular chip that's bad or it's something else... don't really know how to interpret the results tbh :))) it's all just write errors... lots of them :)) report.txt I guess it's a dead memory controller? Honestly no idea but that means that the gpu is dead for good :)))

I will probably look into maybe repairing the 1080 (gonna have to pay someone to do it, I unfortunately lack both the skill and equipment for that)... at least until I go all in and buy all these upgrades... I think it will be considerably cheaper ... if possible ofc :)))

Yep, that's the one I was talking about ... I will take this into consideration :))) Kinda bummed about spending this much money on a new GPU though :)) Edit: I just saw that vat and shipping adds another 100$ :(((((... And I will need a modified heatsink which is another 200-300$ :(((

damn... thanks guys! :((( are there any modifications that I have to make for the new gpu to work or? I know I need a bios that recognizes the card... which I dont think I have since I use the dsanke bios with ME disabled compatible with gtx cards ... do yall got any tips or honestly anything at this point :))) Also is this just a random occurence or did I mess something up? Do yall have experience with this kind of stuff? :))) Could my tests from the past few days of undervolting have screwed up the gpu?

Hi guys! I was playing tarkov on my laptop (P775dm3-g - gtx1080 mxm gpu + qtj1 cpu) when suddenly my entire screen went white (i got flashbanged by the laptop basically) and even after restarting the graphics drivers using the shortcut (ctrl + shift + windows key + B) nothing would happend. After restarting my laptop, basically half of my screen was just artifacts ... I also get them in bios and when i turn on the laptop there is no longer the "clevo powered by dsanke splash screen" :(((( I undervolted the GPU like two days ago and also raised the memory clock a tiny bit (+300 i think) and it was running just fine. Since Tarkov is really bad and unstable I disabled the modifications, so the GPU was running stock when this happened ... Device manager shows an error code 43: Honesty... im not entirely sure how I'm even getting an image if the gpu is dead... or it might just be "dying" ... not sure... Sooo ... is the gpu dead or? :(((( Also... if the gpu is dead... should I get a 3080 :)) I saw one for like 350$ on ebay, not sure if thats a good deal or not ... and if I am supposed to make any more modifications to my current setup :). Thanks!

I suppose you already got your answer, really sorry I forgot to check the forum (life got really busy 🙂). I'll say it anyway in case anybody else comes across this: I used a small flat head screwdriver to flex the rubber thingys out of their holes and they came right out. They do have some really weak adhesive on the back of them, but it'll just fall off, it doesn't really matter. They will be snug enough to not fall out on their own when you put them back (honestly I keep them off at all times since I pretty frequently reseat the lcd cable :))) )

I have a QTJ1 as well... my max is 2133MHz unfortunately :((( apparently Samsung RAM modules can clock higher usually but it's a problem with the cpu, they have really bad memory controllers. @grisevg I have the same exact setup as you, I would honestly test using memtest86 and see if even 2400MHz is stable :)) For me it wasnt. Also when it comes to timings, just relax the cl a tiny bit and see if that fixes anything. Before touching any other timings I mean :)) The process of figuring out what the hell was wrong with my laptop crashing once every hour was extremely frustrating honestly, I just had to accept that I'm gonna have to live with trash RAM speed Very funny that you literally described my thoughts from 3 months ago perfectly :))

Hi! I have the same issue unfortunately :))) I haven't bothered getting a new cable as it seems that simply reseating the cable on the monitor side seems to fix the issue for some time (remove the 2 rubber thingys at the bottom of the monitor - on the upper part of the hinge; undo the screws, remove the plastic bezel on the monitor (I usually flex it from the side and I can pop it out slowly), unscrew the panel, remove and plug the lcd cable back in If you want to change it you'll have to remove it entirely, and you can find a dissasembly tutorial on youtube, just follow the lcd cable onto the motherboard, take it off, put the new one back in :))) It should be fairly simple but extremely annoying :))) Considering this thread is almost 3 weeks old I think you have already fixed it by now, but I just wanted to say that you are not the only one with this issue :))) PS: when the display goes black, resetting the video drivers (ctrl + shift + windows key + B) may fix it :))

Well, ye, I get that. But the only stable setup being 2133MHz is literal trash. I would understand 2800 or 2666, even 2400, but 2133? I had to waste so much time debugging, and reinstalling windows about 3 times (long story) and dealt with so many crashes 🙂 I do understand it's part of the game but still :)))

I see, thankuu! One more question (sorry that there are so many but I have 0 experience with mutant cpu's and stuff like this 🙂 ) : Idk if I got the cpu with the worst memory controller possible or what but ... I was having issues in basically most applications with random "silent crashes" as in, no error codes no nothing. I ran a memtest86 memory test overnight and saw that it didn't pass, but more interestingly it had errors only on test 6 - block move. After a bit of digging I saw people recommending clocking down the RAM frequency, and so after a lot of trial and error I managed to get the test to pass and my system seems fairly stable so far (I'll make a post about it so somebody else like me that knows nothing doesn't have to suffer as much as me). I was originally running 4x16GB of GSkill Ripjaws F4-2400C16D-16GRS (actually 32GRS cus it's two dual channel kits but whatever) at 2400MHz 16-16-16-39 timings. I tried messing with the timings and loosening them to like 18-18-18-41 or something but that didn't work. What worked though was downclocking to 2133Mhz 16-16-16-39 and also bumped the voltage from 1.2V to 1.35 (I doubt it really mattered at this frequency :))) ). If y'all got any better explanations/tips on how I could overclock the RAM and have it stable (I saw people saying they were running 2900-3200MHz 😞 ) please please please let me know 🙂
