In the meantime I switched the 970 EVO Plus to an ADATA XPG SX8200 Pro. It’s a half success. The drive idles in the 30’s and goes up to 60ish on...
I do understand that a desktop PC has better cooling than a thin laptop. I wasn’t expecting 30 degrees in there but certainly not 90 either......
I have ordered the thermal pad, it will arrive on Wednesday and I will install it straight away. I also ordered an Adata XPG SX8200 Pro and will...
I’ve decided to install a second SSD as well, the Samsung 970 EVO Plus 1TB :) My problem is the following: I did not put any thermal pad under it...
Last update: It seems that flashing a different vBios than the Alienware one stabilised some voltage points in addition to doing the PEG 0...
That looks 0.762V to me, not 0.750V. Apart from that, nice OC/UV well done! What I’ve realised based on your comment is that I should leave the...
I also have to add, that I have no idea how OP was able to UV down to 0.750V and OC to 1625MHz. Even with stock memory frequency, I’m crashing at...
Update: I was able to flash the 125W vBios. If someone reads this and refuses to check out earlier comments on the subject, here are my findings:...
I see. Well, the issue I want to resolve is the fact that my 1070 MQ constantly downclocks itself due to hitting the 90W power limit. Currently I...
Any news on GPU life/performance? I have an MSI GS65 Stealth Thin 8RF, just repasted with Kyronaut and replaced the thermal pads with Minus 8...
Hello! Is there anyone who could supply me with an unlocked vBios for 1070 Max Q that can be flashed as well? (MSI GS65 Stealth 8RF)
No, I didn’t notice any other option come up. For now, I’m here: 2667MHz 15-15-15-30 at 1.2V tCWL: 9 tFAW: 16 tREFI: 65535 tRFC: 425 tRRD_L: 6...
I can’t say much in regards of the mic and the webcam, because I never used them and never will. Smartphones are better in my opinion in both mic...
Yeah, it’s stock. I haven’t checked which die is it but I will, I’ll let you know!
I got mine at 2667MHz 15-15-15-30 @ 1.2V in command rate 1N. Secondaries that I have/was able to change: tFAW: from 26 to 16. tRFC: 420 to 425...
Oh nice! How should I get to it? I’ve read somewhere that max value is the best, but my current value is around 9-10.000, which seems rather low....
Bit of an update on my progress: Seems like I’m stable at 15-15-15-35 @ 2667 on 1.2V Thanks for the suggestion Hackness, raising tRFC was the...
I have done the custom profile, otherwise it won’t let me adjust the frequency. However, even with custom profile enabled, I’m unable to change...
I will attempt raising SA and Uncore separately today and see the what the results are. Removing my UV on the 8750H alone wasn’t enough, I’m still...
That’s basically impossible. If you go by 10mV increments, you go until you get an error in TS Bench, then pull it back by 10 and stress test /...
