1) not sure pins can be replaced easily by a user 2) you do need to get prema bios back somehow yes 3)kmg motherboard is actually reasonably different, moreover, no prema there, but there are other bios mods 4) where you bought it I assume? clevo's shop, or any other clevo reseller, could try ebay maybe?

I'm not too sure about the vram pads, I tried everything that isn't the stock version at 1.5 mm and they all cause gpu thermal throttling for lack of contact, only the stock super squishy pads seem to work
-
The heatsink's surface and the copper ihs are heavily stained to the point of uneven surface after months of LM ( conductonaut) use regardless of how irrelevant ion migration from the gallium component is towards copper surfaces, also for some reason LM applications on the heatsink did not last very long at all and it dried out very easily, while LM between cpu and ihs last much longer in my experience. Moreover one should be careful with replacing screws on the gpu's vapor chamber, it can easily bend. Main issue with a unified heatsink on a laptop will be proper contact, guessing that is why ptm is more adaptable to the situation. Still have not tried the 3 screw mod on the cpu side, was never convinced with it given that it takes you to saw off the smaller fourth mount, but one can replaced those screws and add washers with ease. Besides, there is also the question of power limits. 2 280w bricks won't allow much more than this, but then again usually combined loads see a bit lower wattages from cpu

The only way to tame cpus like 10700 or 10900 in the x170 is to delid it, use liquid metal between cpu and ihs ( copper ihs is preferable) and then ptm7950 ( which is my setup currently, best for contact in my experiences ) for both cpu ihs and gpu, probably with the screw mod discussed here many times and the new fans, with an undervolt of around 80 to 90 mv in order to allow the 10900 to get to 5+ ghz. With this and the standard air heatsink setup, you can get the 10900k to almost 200watts without thermal throttling for a bit, and something like 150w 160w continous without issues ( 190+ starts to be a problem fo me), with a sustainable combined power consumption of around 530w to 540w ( with a 150w 3080). One could probably get better results from having a clean and lapped heatsink +ihs, mine has been stained by LM use, regardless of my attempts to clean it and flitz polish it. Putty or good thermal pads would also be preferable, but one does need to pay attention to vram pads, which need to be quite squishy and soft. Water heatsink setup however could have more headroom, with the obvious issues on movability.

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

Price: 45 Euros Condition: Used and NOT working, likely a short caused by Liquid Metal under 1 Vram chip, thus it is sold as is. 1 repair has been conducted by a registered shop ( replacing a MOSFET which according to them was shorted, they said the gpu had no more shorts afterwards under their tests, yet when I tried, with normal thermal paste, was not working ). Warranty: None Reason for sale: Got a replacement Payment: Paypal ( preferred ), Bank transfer Item location: Treviso(31100), Veneto, Italy Shipping: Yes, to be agreed and paid by the buyer International shipping: Yes, to be agreed and paid by the buyer Handling time: 1/2 working days Feedback: none Specification: Nvidia RTX 2080super 8GB MXM for DTRs like the X170, includes cable and thermal pad Proof of ownership: Pictures included For more info feel free to contact me
