[klokas]

Hi, i would like to upgrade my old p870dmg with a 9900ks, but to do so i need a modded bios with coffee lake refresh support, i found some infos in a older thread with this specefic model but the download links are not working anymore.

Could someone help me with providing a modded bios ?

 

Thanks in advance 🙂

What kind of configuration do you have right now on your laptop? (ex. cpu, gpu, ram, drives etc.)

Currently this machine has

 

I5 6600 non K 

GTX 980 DT (200w)

32GB DDR4 3200

2x Samsung 970 Evo plus 2tb

UHD 60hz screen

That is a nice machine!

 

The 9900KS is not needed though. You can even get 5 GHz on two cores with a 9900 and the 4.6 all cores that are possible with it are already beyond what I would recommend you to run on your chassis, the power delivery just isn't made for it.

 

So if you "only" need 8 multi threaded cores and 5 GHz on up to 2 cores you can go for a 9900, 9900K or 9900KF. Especially the K variants are in my experience more efficient on average and therefore consume less for a given multiplier so they may be preferable but also more expensive.  Something like 5/4.8/4.6/4.0 to 4.4 for 2/4/6/8 cores will be possible with all of the CPUs and with a lower 6 and 8 core speed you will keep your Clevo running cooler and longer.

You can go 4.5 all core all times and it will cope.

Find someone to do the mxm mode and slap at least a 2080 in there.

certainly the biggest upgrade for gaming and 2080 prices are quite affordable these days
