I used those along with the hinge clamps as guides to properly orient the screen during reinstallation. Just disconnect the power cables and the battery and you'll be set. Unfortunately, it isn't possible to disconnect the screen cable without breaking the screen until you've sawed away the adhesive strips and removed the screen. Thanks for the tips, will have my trusty isopropyl ready just incase along with my spluggers. As for the screen cable it is a shame as it means i have to remove the screen before i can test the new screen. 1 {Main System:} The Beast Spoiler {Cooling:} Corsair H170i Elite {Mainboard:} Asrock X670E Pro {CPU/GPU:} AMD Ryzen R9 7900x3D / AMD RX 7900 XTX (Asrock Phantom) {RAM/Storage:} 2x 16GB DDR5 Corsair Vengeance 6400MT/s , 13TB WDD SN850X 2x4TB, 2x 2TB, 1x 1TB {PSU/Case:} Corsair RM 1000x V2, Corsair 7000D Airflow (Black) {OS:} Windows 11 Pro Realtek Nahimic 3 Modded Driver for MSI Systems:Latest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brightness control works as does the 165hz the only thing I lost was G-Sync it would seem as the ending of the panel I got was NY6 and not NY2 it is what it is. So it will do for now till I can get hold of a NY2 version or BIOS is updated to include NY6 for G-Sync. Update 2: might be sending panel back, all games have a flickering issue as well as all textures have a glossy texture to them not sure what's causing that issue.

Funny enough i have managed to solve the issue by reseting to EDP cable. The 1440p 165hz screen compared to the 1080p 144hz is night and day. Not only is the colours accurate and pops but the 165hz is a blessing. I mean on the 1080p screen on Caldera i couldn't see for jack due to the muted colours but now its crisp and sharp with the colours being correct. I mean Yellow is Yellow, Green is Green and Red simply pops. Not to mention the 1000:1 Contrast ratio means blacks are blacks not dark grey like on the 1080p. All i am waiting for is Nvidia to add the panel to the G-Sync section in the driver to get G-Sync back, which if what i was told by the seller where the NY2 Version is now low on stock shouldn't be long i don't think. Either that or i use this screen temp and then find the NE173QHM-NY2 screen. 2 {Main System:} The Beast Spoiler {Cooling:} Corsair H170i Elite {Mainboard:} Asrock X670E Pro {CPU/GPU:} AMD Ryzen R9 7900x3D / AMD RX 7900 XTX (Asrock Phantom) {RAM/Storage:} 2x 16GB DDR5 Corsair Vengeance 6400MT/s , 13TB WDD SN850X 2x4TB, 2x 2TB, 1x 1TB {PSU/Case:} Corsair RM 1000x V2, Corsair 7000D Airflow (Black) {OS:} Windows 11 Pro Realtek Nahimic 3 Modded Driver for MSI Systems:Latest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TakeshiCyrob Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 Hello everyone. My x170km-g doesn't have prema mod and has the Clevo bios (which doesn't allow any tuning). Since a while the power limit throttling is always turned on (I use intel xtu) and the cpu doesn't reach the clock speed I set in the profile. How can I solve this situation?

I could of got the NY2 from PCS but they didn't want to send the screen to me instead they wanted me to send the complete system to them which is 2 Weeks sitting there before being worked on then screen swap and tests before sending back. For something that was a 30 minute job. I did instruct the eBay seller if they didn't have NY2 screen in stock to simply refund but they totally ignored that bit. {Main System:} The Beast Spoiler {Cooling:} Corsair H170i Elite {Mainboard:} Asrock X670E Pro {CPU/GPU:} AMD Ryzen R9 7900x3D / AMD RX 7900 XTX (Asrock Phantom) {RAM/Storage:} 2x 16GB DDR5 Corsair Vengeance 6400MT/s , 13TB WDD SN850X 2x4TB, 2x 2TB, 1x 1TB {PSU/Case:} Corsair RM 1000x V2, Corsair 7000D Airflow (Black) {OS:} Windows 11 Pro Realtek Nahimic 3 Modded Driver for MSI Systems:Latest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello! I installed a 2k 165Hz matrix on my x170kmg with NY2 revision and I can say for sure that G-sync does not work with this matrix at x170kmg, G-sync is supported only on 1920 * 1080 240 and 300 hertz matrices. Based on this, you should not be nervous and look for a matrix with revision NY2))), you can safely enjoy the one you already have.

Dream Machine made a modified CCC, it works much better, and they also fixed an old problem related to fan control that caused the laptop to turn off with the inability to start it further from the power button, only remove the battery and put it back in place, after that the laptop started up again as expected but only until the next emergency shutdown. 2 Сlevo p870tm1-g 17.3 Fhd 300Hz i9-10980hk ES rtx3060. / Clevo x170smg 17.3 300Hz i9-10850k rtx2070super 32g ddr4 3200Mhz Gskill. / Clevo x170kmg 17.3 2k 165Hz i5-11600k rtx3080 32g ddr4 3200Mhz Hyper-X.
