  1. X170KM doesn't have half of the space P870 has...
  2. Is this the bios chip or the EC chip?
  3. I know people who are using it - not a shit in any case, probably a little worse than Reiner’s solution.
  4. There is a lot of difference between 65 and 150FPS if you play a competitive game like CoD. I can enjoy full max details with 230 FPS on RTX 4090 mobile, while to reach anywhere near 150FPS with RTX 3080 mobile I need to drag the details down to medium. Not a big deal, of course , but it takes away from the fun. In two years I will need to drag the details even lower to stay at a competitive frame rates. of course, it’s all matter of how good you are/wanna be in a competitive game. I can say immediately if I play with 100 or 150FPS and especially if G-Sync is on or off. The implementation of the G-Sync for the 1440p 165HZ screen of X170KM is made terribly as there is still stuttering in CoD. 144HZ and 300HZ are better ones in this regard. X170KM is worth keeping only from collector’s perspective, as the last DTR warrior. I will keep mine just because of this sentimentality, otherwise pretty much all of the modern gaming laptops blow it away as CPU/GPU/RAM raw power and quality of the screen, no matter what modifications are done.
  5. You are right and I can kind of agree about P870, there is much more space inside to take this mod successfuly. I just don‘t get this enormous effort for X170 where everything is limited as a space inside and desktop GPU won‘t fit at all…
  6. Still…CPU Limitation will be inevitable in and it will end the same as it was on HP 8770W - GTX 1070 on 3940XM. At one certain point the games‘ FPS will be CPU limited and the GPU will be power wasted only, no matter 4xxx or 5xxx series.
  7. Everything is impressive, but I just don't get it...why such an enourmous investment of time, effort and money in a model which is already obsolete? In two years it will be suitable for old games , word and excel only, figuratively said.
  8. 36K firestrike graphics without GPU OC only in somebody's dream;)
  9. Mine on air only: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 (notebook) video card benchmark result - Intel Core i7-11700KF Processor,Notebook X170KM-G NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 (notebook) video card benchmark result - Intel Core i7-11700KF Processor,Notebook X170KM-G No point of turning the X170 into a complete desktop...
  10. This means only one thing…- you have to disassembly your laptop and flash your bios chip with a CH341A Programmer…
  11. Bios chip reflash with CH341A programmer. You've bricked your bios. But first try: 1. insert only one stick of ram in bottom lower slot. 2. Take out the CMOS battery plug, insert the main battery and start the laptop. It won't post. 3. Turn it off. Plug the CMOS battery in, insert the main battery and start again. If this doesn't fix it - you have to open the laptop and manually reflash the bios chip with CH341A. If you have Prema bios, you are gonna lose it.
  12. Silicon lottery I suppose😄 +220 is stable for benching only. For 24/7 I keep it at +170-180.
  13. You are talking about X170SM or KM? Because KM has problems with RAM speeds at and above 3200MHz and drops read speed almost twice at that frequency. If you are using X170SM then the lower scores of your GPU come indeed from lacking the 15W turbo boost. Mine goes at some places even at 175W.
