  1. I can hardly wait for that. I am so excited about seeing what kind of amazing stuff you create. That is very kind of you. Since I do not support Micro$lop Game Stupidos I hope someone that does grabs it and puts it to good use.
  2. Also try clicking the button on ThrottleStop to "Turn On" because your settings may not be applied if you do not "turn on" ThrottleStop.
  3. Do you have a stock Clevo BIOS or an unlock BIOS (Prema or Dsanke)? If you do have an unlocked BIOS, try setting everything in the BIOS. I have some videos in my YouTube channel for ThrottleStop. They are old and there are some minor differences in ThrottleStop. You can try replicating some of the settings.
  4. Did you choose the "disable and lock turbo power limits" open in ThrottleStop? If not, do that. If you can disable C-states in the BIOS, do that. Residency has to do with power saving c/p states. Your power limit is also a limiting factor. Set that to the maximum (4095). You can do that in the TPL page in ThrottleStop.
  5. I was finally able to install Linux on my MEG Z690 Unify-X setup. I has having difficulting with an error "AHCI Controller Unavailable" that was preventing me from booting any version of Linux I had tried to install. As it turns out, the issue was caused by my optical drive being connected to the ASMedia SATA controller, which is an incompatible configuration for Linux. More details on how I found out what was causing it is in this post. I have installed POP_OS! with Cinnamon DE and it is working like a champ now.
  6. Wow, that is a LOT of GPUs. I was going to post in on Mercari or FleaBay, but I have been too busy at work, and painting the house for my wife when not at work. I will hold off and wait for you to decide. I am in no huge rush and I don't mind waiting a bit since you are interested.
  7. Sorry I didn't see your post. Strange that I didn't see a notification. It has been a crazy busy time at work. I would assume that it does but I don't really know because I've never needed to use bifurcation. So I can't really answer accurately.
  8. The Micro$lop Morons are their own worst enemy. The reason Winduhz is all messed up, and has been since W8.X, is because they keep adding crap they call features. Windows 8 was released to manufacturing on August 1, 2012 and that marked the start of their decline. I haven't had a lick of respect for them since. They need to just roll back all of the idiotic stuff they have done over the past 10 years and then just leave it the hell alone and stop screwing with it.
  9. This is still available. I haven't listed it anywhere else but I might later this week.
  10. It is unfortunate, but I don't think you can actually buy an excellent laptop anymore that has "no restrictions" because 100% of them have at least a couple of glaring defects relating to performance restrictions and/or thermal management. Since you already have it, I'd say just keep the Omen and make the best of it. Even if it wasn't necessarily the best choice, the reality is that nothing available will be remarkably superior to the Omen. Nobody builds/sells anything remarkable in laptops. Build a desktop instead.
  11. Thank you for the kind words, and the sentiment is mutual.

  13. Hi bro. I am not familiar with that product. I haven't really done anything with laptops for quite a few years, save for a couple of months helping brother Donald as a favor with an X170 enhancement for zTecpc. I am sorry I am not able to provide any insight.
  14. Man, that is really terrible news. Very sorry to hear that Brother John. And, since they "don't sell o-ring kits for Hydro Copper" they probably can't even attempt to service yours. They should, at the very least, offer to give you a full refund for the Hydro Copper. For me this is just additional confirmation that spending the extra money on a KPE GPU isn't really worth it because of all of the severe limitations you have to tolerate in association with ownership. Owning the best GPU money can buy is totally worthless if you can't service it due to lack of parts availability from the manufacturer and nothing available from a third party. Availability of the OptimusPC block is a joke (as much as I want one). If you order one now you might be lucky enough to have arrive within 180 days. You should do what I did before the Hydro Copper block became available. Not as good as a legit block, but still way better than the hybrid abortion. Cut the black plastic retainers at the hybrid's radiator ends of the tubing, slide the tubing off the radiator barbs and install QDC fittings on barbs to run it through your loop, and put an MP5WORKS block on the backplate.
  15. Seems like the RAM and IMC are also good quality. These read/write/copy speeds remind my of my monster 7980XE benching days. The heat from the PCH on this thing is ungodly. I took out two of the five NVMe SSDs because the PCH exceeds 90°C with all five M.2 slots filled. With three it is still hovering in the 70's. I am going to have to do some kind of a cooling mod to fix that. I want to be able to use all five NVMe SSDs.
  16. Finally had a short break from work to tinker a little bit. I still have a lot to figure out.
  17. Yes, if you are in direct sunlight it looks very dim, and you need max brightness to be barely usable. It does not really affect me, but I have noticed in the rare times I have needed to view my phone screen while standing in direct sunlight. For the most part it is not a relevant issue for my use pattern.
  18. Thanks, bro. This is the only place I have it listed for now, so you might have ample opportunity for the temptation to get the best of you. 😉
