    for overclocking you need svl7 or perma bios you can find both on techinferno but you need to pay for membership for approval of the account.

    svl7 has a fixed 1.000 V core voltage and that's why it wouldn't work with any card with low ASIC.

    Your best bet is Prema's vBios.

    First: I always asked about 330 watts because I did not find stability on the GTX 980m card with single psu and I do not know whether this is due to psu or because of the vbios. and i’ll buy another gtx 980m to make an sli too . Secondly: My question is about the GTX 1070m because I will upgrade the video card to him so I study the subject from experience of Others.

    my id vbios is 84.04.35.00.05 stable but i cant overclock it and i flashed svl7 vbios it’s Very unstable

    Man 330w is all the m18x r2 needs
    I had the m18x r2 (3940xm and sli 980ms) for several years, and it ran full potential with just one 330w psu, so don’t worry about it
