sm indeed, everything works as it should except gsync and dynamic boost which according to reasonably reliable source it just steals dedicated wattage from the cpu. Gsync is a bit of a loss I kinda miss it
-
interesting, my cpu's faster (10900k) and does around 14k, but gpu is stock, also I do not have dynamic boost, dunno if that plays any role in this, but overclocking it proves it will use more power, up to around that 165w. Also my ram runs at a faster frequency (3200mhz) but lower timings (16 18 18 36). Whenever there is a NVcleanstall version of the nvidia app which should add more gpu control I'll play around with it, always had some kinds of issues with afterburner and miss the auto voltage curve regulator
-
that, plus anything else you might have done to it, since my own 3080 does far less in time spy, stock settings
-
very nice, congratz Would like to know the gpu settings
-
Throttlestop exists
-
you should check sata settings and boot drive settings in bios, those are present in all bios versions. As far as xmg's bios, no, it does not have everything unlocked, I suggest using stock bios from clevo and dsanke's unlocker, which you can find in this thread

Speaking of pads, the only info and pictures I could find list thicknesses going from 1.5 to 2.5 mm, is that correct? Been wanting to try out upsiren 24w pads since i saw good reviews on them and they are relatively cheap. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1CAJP7ojt3jaGxBrJNTzd1Kp5-gikdh_8 these are some chart results for pads, putties, pastes and LM, I do not think I wanna deal with a potential mess a putty causes. Also wanted to try PCM-1 at least on gpu first, since it doesn't need a ton of cooling to keep low on temps. PCM-1 is sold on Aliexpress for far cheaper than the seemingly reputable sources of PTM 7950 ( moddiy, for instance). If you tried any, where did you get it? Is it useable for our x170?
-
The orientation does not look quite right here, that inward section should be rotated 90 degrees clockwise from this picture's perspective, unless for some reason it is a different board
-
lucky me, we got the same identical kit :) xmp 1 profile here, and the slow post issue might've been something else like an undervolt, bios reset and it's working great
-
yeah I thought I also recalled some discussions in the old forum. Pity but predictable, thanks. Is there also a some kind of support list for ram for x170s? with its super delciate xmp support. Mine can struggle to post sometimes or posts very slowly after i changed my cpu to a 10900k
-
Pretty sure this has been discussed in the old forums already but: Direct Die Cooling for cpu, we can't get it for the smg right?
-
I wasn't referring to your instructions, you posted feedback on your past experiences, which I still would love to see some screenshots of perhaps. Not sure any iteration of prema bios can help in any way. Some supposed kmg cookies were imported into prema's version of the smg bios, yet we have a number of prema users with 3080 that have the same troubles as everyone else getting it to work properly. Moreover I still have to see any proof of the claim that dynamic boost in our dtr would throttle cpu wattage. Guess one could ask or look in kmg forum.
-
and I can confirm that with those lackluster instructions, this trick with the 3080 in the x170SMG does not work. If someone has better ways of describing how this can work, I am of course all ears. Can you show me the posts for the 2080S for our pc then?
-
Moreover, the solution as posted does not work. Afterburner doesn't allow for power limit sliders in laptops regardless of what you do. So unless there is something else that needs to be done..
-
yeah, if only there was a feature that would, oh I dunno, add around 15 watts...maybe dynamically, during loads where boost is required
-
I do not have the entire suite. Just fan control and had the updater too
-
the main issue with ccc in my experience is represented by the overclocking apps and the xtu modules. Once you remove those, the app is fine for what it is and you can uninstall its sub apps with revo uninstaller, I only have the power mode selector and the rgb control app as I like them on the go. Msi afterburner's been a up and down experience, I like my voltage curve editing and hopefully, the future integration of control panel, geforce experience and other account-less controls will ease the burden...in its nvcleanstall form of course. All hail Throttlestop ofc
-
ccc I use it only to switch power modes on the go without resorting to bios. Yeah now i remember, remi mercier fan control does not detect the fan headers...meaning it cannot communicate with EC
-
i used a profile called silent mode, changed some of the points in the curves, then set "sync to hottest device value", meaning that if the gpu started going on full load, according to the gpu fan profile, BOTH fans would ramp up, making it much less noisy and honestly, better temps overall. No other fan control I have tried, including rlec, clevo fan control from github and the ccc fan control one hold a candle to that AND to the fan ramp routine, as it was far less annoying, progressive and easy on the ears. I assume no support exists where I can ask for this issue to be fixed. https://getfancontrol.com/ this looked interesting, though i recall it did not work much if at all for me, did not recognise much.
-
Apparently all the bios ( and gpu) changes finally caught up with the obsidian fan control licence system: my licence stopped working. Which is a problem, without it, completely useless. And then I'd need a fan control app which ramps up BOTH fans for even 1 load ( cpu OR gpu) instead of 1 for 1.
-
Thanks @Pfudaniel, let's hope that we can get similar results like the p870 or p775! Especially since some of us using the 3080 in the smg have power state driver failure after wake-up from sleep in win 10. SMG's gpu Hardware ID is : PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_24DC&SUBSYS_77141558&REV_A1 as far as I know, the KMG which supports the 3080 natively is 7715, instead of 4. Installing drivers directly with nvcleanstall, doing the inf modding manually, choosing the km-g template, doesn't change anything, the end result is a driver with the issues listed above, with or without Prema Bios. Hopefully someone with quite more skill than me for instance, can provide any insight into modding the bios so that it can recognise the card natively or at least work with gsync, dynamic boost and no sleep issue.
-
so..you have gsync when using external monitor and now your gpu goes to around 165watts? did you do something to it?
-
just like a was told some time ago, no amount of .inf modding will bring us reliably constant gsync and dynamic boost ( or working sleep functions in win 10)
-
For performance/privacy/security reasons, would you disable ( in bios and else if present) the following: --Intel SGX ( Software guard extension) --Intel Management Engine ( though its disabled state in bios is not much more than placebo from what I read, and removing the driver in windows doesn't do much either, afaik system76 does remove it more or there's even this: https://github.com/corna/me_cleaner) --TPM Would trying to disable any or all of these cause problems elsewhere? Read around it could cause power state issues. Thanks
