I'm limited by my ram, only 2800 cl16... Unfortunately, I wasn’t online while the benchmark was running, so I took a photo of it with my phone at the time
zerokool Posted June 17 Posted June 17 I modded my vapor chamber a different way . I installed a second GPU ( 1060 ) on the other side . Disabled it in the bios m used the mounting pressure from that card . Got a piece of spring steel and tightened it on the 3080 to side and it's been cool . Idles in the 30d and 40s and hits at most 76 c full snot . It's a 200 watt card too lol 1
farawaythrower Posted Thursday at 10:17 PM Posted Thursday at 10:17 PM (edited) I am a proud new owner of a P870DM-G! Though,do I need to modify the CPU pins on the QTJ1 for compatibility on my LGA1151v1 (formerly 6700k was installed)? What thickness of washers will I need to compensate for the CPU's extra Z-height? Where do the washers go? Ive attempted to install the QTJ1 but my P870DM turns off when I attempt to turn it on with it installed. EDIT: I've figured out where to put the washers (under each of the 3 socket torx screws), and the shut-off issue being due to incompatible BIOS (missing microcode & ME issue) Edited yesterday at 09:28 PM by farawaythrower 1

Mine at least doesn't instant hit 92 c when over to 4.8 all core with single core 5.2 and dual 5.0 it hits 84 c fully loaded . The only gripe with the p870tm1 even gsync is 75 hz screen limit that has terrible pixel response time
farawaythrower Posted 3 hours ago Posted 3 hours ago The main obstacle so far with my P870DM-G is probably the CPU cooling solution. Even with a vcore offset of -150mW, lapped IHS, power limited to 90W, Im still seeing the CPU throttle to 80W under load and peaking at 98C in ycruncher (2 threads disabled in the screenshot). It'd be great if I could utilize more of the QTJ1's performance until I hit the ceiling of the VRM is capable of. I've read that I could use the P870TM vapor chamber CPU cooler with some mods for fitment in this chassis? And that there is a user on the forum called Developer that does custom vapor-chamber mods for these laptops?
