  1. Unfortunately, there is another problem. It won't be that simple. It should have EC, RAM voltage. CPU and GPU voltage are fine. They have been measured. I hope the experts can fix it.
  2. yes, the ITE will be replaced and programmed.✌️
  3. My KM-G computer broke down. After turning on the computer, there is no keyboard lighting and no image. It has been tested, the CPU and GPU circuits are intact, but the keyboard (KBC) is not okay. The chip needs to be replaced and programmed first. I hope it will be fixed and usable again. This is not a small time... Has anyone experienced this before? 🤔😥
  4. Try this: X170KM-G BIOS Name/Password: repo
  5. Hi, What kind of card is this? I don't know what you mean.🤔
  6. BIOS version 1.07.08 requires the EC BIOS which is 100% compatible with the Clevo X170KM-G motherboard. Please Help, thank you! 😌
  7. Is it possible to flash the KM-G motherboard with a special keyboard combination on a USB port using a USB device? thanks in advance for any guidance or help!
  8. Hi, The pads hold up very well and I'm sure that even after removing the heatsink, it will be as good as new. All you need to do is change the paste (on the CPU and GPU surfaces). In case of active use, it is recommended to change it annually. My SM-G and KM-G laptops also use special chips, which in principle never dry out, so you don't need to change them. Good luck! Always remove the battery! This is IMPORTANT!☝️✌️ I'm currently using PTM7950 on the SM-G machine, and Thermal Grizzly Kryosheet and H2O block on the KM-G machine.
  9. What kind of thermal pad does a GTX 1080 with a water block require? Can anyone share a picture of this?🤔 Thank you!
  10. I have it. I still have the motherboard, a KM-G board was added to the case and I built it, so I have an X170SM-G and an X170KM-G full-featured machine. Amazing!😋🤭😝
  11. 🤭😄 SM-G Total Storage: up to 4 physical drives: - 3x M.2 2280 NVMe PCIe Gen3 x4 / SATA - 1x M.2 2280 SSD via SATA KM-G Total Storage: Four physical M.2 drives: - 3x M.2 2280 NVMe PCIe Gen3 x4 - 1x M.2 2280 NVMe PCIe Gen4 x4
  12. Should M.2 nVme SSD be visible by default or does it need Driver software? Does it also include an M.2 Sata SSD?🤔
  13. I replaced the board yesterday. SM-G is not 100% identical to the KM-G case, because the CMOS battery can also be changed. The board can handle 2x32GB DDR4 3200MHz CL20 (Kingston) memory at most? Does 4x32GB no longer handle it? There is no image and the keyboard turns blue, no reaction from the computer. Is there a solution to this? 4x32GB RAM would be important.
  14. You are very welcome! I also have a spare BIOS Chip for the SM-G model that has the full Prema BIOS loaded on it and I put it aside just to be safe, because it will be good as a backup in the future. When tested at 5GHz, the K and KF both perform well, but the K performed slightly better and the KF performed slightly better during the TimeSpy Extreme Benchmark. The integrated graphics are disabled by default, so only the dedicated GPU is available and there is no iGPU, so the KF processor might be worth it. It scored a few points more than me, but it also consumes a lot more and I'm not sure the KF processor is worth it, because it heats up more! What you shared (RTX 4090 MXM GPU) were not manufactured for this Clevo machine and are probably not compatible with it... (not a Clevo/Kapok product) The 3080 was actually designed for the KM-G model and it fits in there. I'm currently using it in an SM-G machine, but soon a KM-G motherboard will be included and the RTX 3080 GPU will be fully compatible with it! (this is also important!) This laptop is absolutely suitable for anything!
  15. In my case, the corner of the BIOS chip was broken (contact leg) and therefore had to be replaced. It was most likely destroyed by zTecpc so that the Prema BIOS could not be saved from it. The chip was replaced and the Prema BIOS flashed again. EC was reset and flashed again. In this case, the first departure can take 3-5 minutes! Max. CPU support i9-10900K/KF I don't think it's worth changing, because the i9 can't do much more. If you want to use 5GHz, then you need the water system, which costs a lot when fully installed.🤔😄 I haven't read about the MXM series 40xx version yet, but according to them it already exists and is being produced? Where is it officially available? What is the price of an RTX 4090 version? X170SM-G does not fully handle the 3080 16GB version either. 150W max. TDP, no GPU Boost either...😌 I am slowly replacing the SM-G with the KM-G motherboard.☝️✌️🤭😋
