For some reason I thought it would have been fine as I apparently mistakenly remember doing it in the past and it was fine. Clearly not. Xmg bios does not give access to xmp if I remember? I bought a ch341a programmer which is due tomorrow morning, I watched some videos on how to use it, does not seem hard. I just need a bios dump, not sure in which format. As for taking it apart I have already done it, I just need to remove that black bar somehow. Removed 2 screws from it already but it is still there.
-
Yeah I do not have one...and gotta learn how to use it, if there are tutorials.. Still thanks https://www.amazon.it/TECNOIOT-CH341A-Programmer-Software-Adapter/dp/B07RKXSMKH Would this one here work?
-
I need some assistance. I flashed the xmg EC and Bios both of which did not create booting issues, then used dsanke's unlocker and now it won't POST anymore, fans and lights go on, then boot loops. I tried removing the cmos battery for 5 minutes but it did not solve it. Is there any solution to this? Thanks
-
one downside, at least for me, of swapping to the 3080, crashes (black screen) after sleep, windows 10:
-
Agreed on ccc. I only keep the power modes ( performance, power saving etc), rest I uninstalled thanks to revo, and both xtu and the damn intel Dptf have been banned to the shadow realm. Obisidan caused you issues? Weird. Have been using it for years and apart from these connections for remote control, I never had problems. Unless you count deleting clevoservice everytime you do bios updates and/or open up the pc.
-
I tried those already, which is why I mentioned it in my post I wasn't fond of them for some features they lack, unless I missed them ( yes I learned of those fan controls from that thread)
-
So I resorted back to obsidian's fan control app since I purchased a copy years ago- Problem is, obsidian went out of business and i have an app with remote control through Ip that makes a ton of outbound connections if I stop it through firewalls ( portmaster or windows firewall) the app complains every 5 seconds. I do not want a old app making connections to out of date and disregarded services and most unfortunately I found no decent alternative to this fan control ( can unify load/temp logic and do other things). Is there a way I can block this app's internet connection without it being any the wiser?
-
Could it be related to the janky gpu driver install (3080 in an sm-g without prema bios) that I cannot wake the pc up from sleep? ( black screen. Also battling with windows installing dptf over and over) I answer my own question: yes, it is indeed related to botched gpu driver installs: you can use nv clean install and edit the inf file required by using your gpu hardware ID, then replace it in the temp folder where the program stores the files. Then you reboot into driver certification disabled state (7 in the menu for safe mode reboots) and proceed with the normal installation. This fixes issues with sleep or nomenclature in programs, you still do not have gsync or dynamic boost however
-
Having an SM-G, it would be 10900k, but yeah
-
I can confirm the 3080, even without g sync or dynamic boost, is much better than the 2080s ( not talking 40 to 50fps ofc, but still noticeable) at a much less wattage cost ( thus far never seen over 320w combined system) Personal experience in all the 3 last tomb raider games and witcher 3, the latter of which struggled a lot especially memory-wise during rtx, while the 3080 handles it with ease. Temps top at 70C Hotstpot and not even 63C on core (Cpu is 10600k with a -94mv undervolt, performance profile, sits around 78 to 82 on some cores tops), however I'm using the stock fan control which isn't very customizable, I do own obsidian's old fan control app but it doesn't always behave correctly especially during opposite spinning and it has a continous connection for the remote control which you cannot block unless you want a warning appearing every 5 seconds
-
no no, the paste was just at heatsink's side, and i used only the battery, it wasn't connected to the wall, we're talking seconds of activity anyway.. I think it was residual alcohol that simply evaporated, smell was plasticy ish tho, regardless, there is no visible damage anywhere
-
So, I re installed my 2080s because I wanted to test if it still worked. I cleaned it beforehand with alcohol, let it dry etc. When I put it back I did put the heatsink and fans but not all the screws or the paste ( gpu side). After some boot attempts I heard boiling, so closed the pc immediately, re opened it immediately and saw bubbles of "water" ( could not have been since I used alcohol only), and a smell as if something was cooking. Now, the pc works with the 3080, I tested it afterwards and everything is fine, however I cannot boot the 2080s it seems. At inspection, the gpu is fine, there is nothing (even under lens) that would suggest short circuits, broken connectors, burned bus or anything, but there is something else: when I first removed the 2080s for cleaning, I am fairly certain a small amount of liquid metal went under one of the vram chips, and I made my best efforts to remove and clean everything before doing this attempt. I also cleared cmos battery to prevent issues with gpu swapping. Do you think my gpu is dead? Is there any way to test it elsewhere that does not involve risking my main and only pc?
-
we desperately need a more complete solution to this then
-
also, does this mean that every time I update my gpu drivers I have to use the same trick?
-
we have, I assume, the same machine and bios version (1.07.04, from clevo directly): x170SM.g with the same 3080, possibly from the same seller even. The only difference is that I am using dsanke's bios unlocker, which I use for xmp and some other stuff, how is it then you did not have to do anything while everyone else sits with the same problem?
-
Thank you! Then how is it possible that gsync and dynamic boost work for @Pfudaniel? they also gave me a different file to edit: nv_dispig.inf
-
So, anyone knows which template to use? my own path is 7714 1558 which does not exist apparently in that list. I tried the standard method of .inf modding by rebooting into disabling driver certification and replacing the id into that 24DC, driver installs but it still won't recognise the gpu in nv clean install, no gsync either
-
I know it can. Not there though in my case. For like a couple of very hard millimeters
-
Ah! The km g heatsink does not fit the sm-g chassis apparently. Plastic where that pad passes through ( bottom right corner) is protruding too much. Nice.
-
https://youtu.be/8igM5DcTukw i'm soon switching to my 3080, as soon as my heatsink gets here. will this be necessary if I use DDU and NVCleanInstall?
-
pretty sure options included the base 1080 144hz, 1080 240hz and then the 4k 60hz
-
Well, apparently just replugging the cmos was sufficient to fix it, good to know
-
fair point, however everything I saw thus far indicates that. The main battery is fine, 7% wear which isn't bad considering it also is 4 years old and works fine. Also reflashed bios and EC(thus disabling Dsanke's bios unlocker) to make sure everything is fine software wise. Thank you for the updates, looking forward for that .INF driver and what to do with it!
-
Well, it lasted 4 years.. Where can I get another? third party or should I contact my own clevo seller?
-
Apparently my pc decided it was time not to ever boot without it being plugged in to the wall. It flashes and then turns off, only with AC power it turns on and it says there's been an nvram reset, so bios reset and everything. Is it me or the CMOS battery is dying?
