Okay, thanks. Would I need custom drivers or can I download official drivers?

Is it possible to upgrade the P870 to the beastly Quadro P5200 from the GTX 1080? I could only find guides to upgrade to the Quadro P5000.

I think I still do! I'll PM him/her once I look into my previous post history once I get the time to.

That makes so much sense, so you look for traces, phases and VRMs in a motherboard first and foremost. What would you look for in buying RAM, SSDs, and CPUs (more cores vs high Ghz, servers vs consumer CPUs)?

Thanks for detailed answer mate! I'm an overclocker that wants to chase after the highest scores. If you want to build a monster computer right now with no care for money, what would you look for in buying a motherboard and liquid cooling components and why? I remember some other users on this forum described looking for VRMs.

When building the most high end desktop (liquid cooling, RTX 4090/A5000, i9 13900k/AMD EPYC, etc) possible that will last you a long time, what do you look for in each of its components (motherboard, power supply, cooler, etc.) when choosing what to buy?

Oh wow! Do you mind linking a tutorial or telling me how you did it?

I bought the TM from Eurocom and I configured it with 2x 2080s to use with a dual monitor setup with multiple GPU intensive applications running on each (I'm an auto engineer). I'm just wondering if there were any other use cases besides the one I mentioned.

Since the RTX 2080s in my P870TM don’t have SLI capabilities, what would be the best use for them? Should I sell one of the MXM cards for some sweet $$?

Thanks! I will do that asap lol. Sure! Would love to see them. Would these mods and the BIOS tweaks also work on a Eurocom P870TM1 with a core i9 9900k and their unlocked BIOS? I have both laptops and would love to give them both their full potential.

Wow! Your CPU must have been hella happy with those mods. Can you link me any tutorials and where to get these parts? Also, what BIOS settings did you use?

I'm actually using a Clevo laptop with Prema's unlocked BIOS so I do have control over that stuff lol. When I try the full on overclocking route on my 10900k on the X170SM-G, it actually produces a Cinebench score that is less than when I downclock and undervolt at the same time. What is going on?

This is for a laptop and for general performance! What happens next when you get your safe base setting?

How do you guys know what the best GHz and voltage combination is for best performance for the CPU? The GPU? Are there a general set of guidelines to follow when trying to find the best stable overclock/undervolt?

Is there a way to modify a VBIOS of a laptop graphics card or do a hardmod to unlock the TDP for better performance, particularly for a Clevo one? If so, how do you do it? If we can modify the BIOS to unlock performance for the CPU with the Prema BIOS, I figure we can do it for the GPU as well.

cool, should I pm him or tag him here?

Is there a way to modify stock or Prema's BIOS to support the 30-series cards from NVIDIA? I tried editing hex values and flashing my modified BIOS using AFUWIN but it didn't seem to recognize my graphics card.

Thanks! What exactly is FD lock and why is Intel's management engine need to be updated to corporate? Is it a compatibility issue with the BIOS?

I have two laptops identical P870TM1-G laptops, one has Prema BIOS and the other having Eurocom's unlocked BIOS. The one with Prema BIOS has a core i7 8700k, a single GTX 1080 with a 144 hz 1440p screen paired with G-Sync while the other has a Eurocom unlocked BIOS with a core i9 9900KF and two GTX 1080s in SLI and a 4k display. Is it possible to flash the Prema BIOS over the unlocked Eurocom BIOS on the other laptop and not brick it? @Papusan@electrosoft
