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
-
You gotta edit the inf file to get that address. Nvcleanstall uses appdata local temp folder. Find the infs there
-
I think it also amounts to how he installed the drivers, using, technically, the wrong ID address. Pfudaniel has ztec with prema and he edited the nv_dispig.inf using the 2206 template under "3080" and edited 24DC.7714.1558. He definitely has gsync with 4k screen. Dynamic boost though, no idea.
-
I saw his control panel. It has the option for gsync, unlike mine. But it said "no" beside dynamic boost..so there is that. Mine also says 165w but never pulls over 150. Also 3dmark complains when you use gsync.
-
ok, I think this settles it, ZTEC Prema x170s, while they require custom driver installations, DO support 3080 features like dynamic boost and Gsync, though doesn't it say "no" beside dynamic boost 2.0? Do some full load test and see via hw id if it really uses 165w
-
you did not follow the guide, it said it does not matter whether it's one or the other. Go for 7715 and install in safe mode. You can also do it manually by editing the 3080 reference in the nvcvig.inf file into 24DC.7714.1558
-
Follow the guide I linked. One of the ways in which you can do it.

It does not install driver correctly on its own. Not in the cases thus far listed with 3 different sets of bios+EC
-
Mod the nvcvig.inf drivers for your hardware ID and install them in safe mode. Use nvcleanstall which is much better than stock ones. Pfudaniel used nv_dispig and inserted the hw id address into the 3080 @ 2206 if I recall, should work the same. In theory being ztec with prema it should have gsync and dynamic boost working, without the damn sleep issue that is plaguing me.
-
agreed on this, it also bends the vapor chamber if you are not careful, stock spring screws from clevo plus a couple of washers help enough
-
yes, apparently that is pretty much the only one.
-
yeah, well if it wasn't for lack of gsync, dynamic boost, funky driver install and, apparently, black screen problems with windows 10 sleep, then sure, it's great. @win32asmguydo you have the same black screen issue? dumps driver power state failure pointing to the gpu driver
-
No throttlestop then? So you always sit on high power limits..I also considered this but I occasionally like changing profiles ( power saving, quiet) and not in the bios which is slower.
