I can't increase the brightness anymore with the fn+ f4 key like i used to after updating to smart manager 5.1.8. anyone else has this?
-
Is it just me or do most p35x v4 owners have a little bit of screen bleed on the edge of their screens?

I have a question, please dont hate me for this it may sound stupid but its been bugging me lol...... is it bad to keep the laptop charged all day when playing games or just simply doing day to day task?
-
I keep my laptop pluged in all the time, it has less impact on the modern battery. I lost maybe less than 10% of battery life on my 5 years old Alienware M11xR3.

I reinstalled windows 10 and after installing al drivers via smart update, i dont have the dolby digital plus program anymore! It's strange because last time i did a clean install of windows 10 it was there just fine.
I really liked it, anyone know how i can get it? -

On windows 10, my computer always hangs on the gigabyte boot screen when performing a reboot, but not when powering down and turning the laptop on manually. Anyone else experiencing the same issue?
EDIT: nevermind, it was because i was charging my phone via USB XDLast edited: Sep 9, 2015 -
Guys I had this happened to me twice already, occasionally when i play CS:GO my laptop seems to freeze and then open up a blue screen saying "MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION" is there anyway this can be fixed?
I do play cs with frame rates capped to 60 so whats the problem?
Also, whats everyone's average cpu and gpu temps when gaming?Last edited: Sep 10, 2015 -
My windows 10 seems to bsod every time automatic maintenance occurs (whether forced or on a schedule). Where can i turn this off?
-
I am thinking of getting the P35x v4, do you recommend it for the things I have to do, oh and I also have a desktop, but it is a couple years old and has a crappy processor.
List of things I want to do:
1) Use it for school, notes browsing
2) Use it for OpenGL Java 3d programming
3) Using heavy programs, Photoshop, Sony Vegas, After Affects
4) Gaming, CSGO, Battlefield, Minecraft with high res texture pack and shaders -
I am also getting the Machine Check Exception on some games, but on others I have no issues. I don't know if it is maybe the new Nvidia Drivers or maybe even one of the updates for Smart Manager? I usually run my pc under Quiet w/ Balanced Battery. My GPU is around 46 Celsius at idle and CPU is around 55, and when gaming (BF4 for example) I get around 70 on the GPU and 75 on the CPU. I applied that Liquid Thermal about 3 days after I received my PC and it dropped the temps around 12 degrees.
-
I've never encountered that problem before, but a blue-screen on a modern Windows system indicates a hardware issue most of the time. In this case the CPU directly, which is really bad. Make a new partition, install windows and CS:GO on it , boot the system from this fresh copy of windows if its still happening - you'll have to get the unit replaced.
My temps during gaming are a constant 80 C for the GPU and the CPU is all over the place , around 90-92 degrees for demanding games. -
-
Also this has only happened to me on Steam games such as DOTA and CSGOLast edited: Sep 16, 2015 -
Exactly, this problem only occurs when playing CS:GO, i uninstalled it and reinstalled it 3 times already same issue, where on the other hand games like payday 2 are completely fine. My temps when play League on max settings are 60 degrees for cpu and abit less for gpu (bare in mind i use a laptop cooler and new thermal paste which lowers it about 5-7 degrees).
another problem im having is playing minecraft on constant 60 fps, is that just a normal thing for 980m on a laptop or should i be expecting abit more solid peformance? -
As for minecraft, have you check the v-sync?
Regards. -
yeah i have checked and its turned off, only time its 60 is when i lower the distance of blocks.
Also, can some be so kind to tell me what the latest graphics driver is out for p35x v4 as on the Gigabyte website it says its version 10.18.13.5340 which i have currently installed but on Smart Update it says the latest is 10.18.13.5375, the problem also is when i do click on it it says "Please check net connection", any help here guys? -

Hey guys, whats all your average temps for cpu and gpu when idle, mine is about 55C average for both cpu and gpu.
Much appreciated -
I am getting a P35XV3-CF5 Intel i7-4710HQ 2.5Ghz/GTX980M/8GB/1TB+128GB SSD for $1599 brand new. I had a few questions for owners on this thread:
1. Heat: Is it a must to repaste this laptop to avoid throttling? It looks like an easy enough affair, but I just wonder if things improved compared to the very first posts on this thread from last year.
2. Does the 8GB version come with on 8GB stick or two 4GB sticks?
3. What cooling pads are you guys putting this over?
4. How is Windows 10 on this? Any major issues I should be aware of before upgrading, since mine will come with Windows 8.1.
Thanks -
I solely play league on max settings and v sync on and i get average temps for cpu around about 60-65C and the gpu is always 2-3C lower. bare in mind i also cap to 60fps
Note: dont get windows 10 trust me i downloaded it and i rebooted my laptop, windoes 8.1 so much better in terms of bootup speed and overall temps for cpu -
2: one 8GB RAM stick.
3: I elevated mine, no cooling pad necessary.
4: still using 8.1, Win 10 doesn't seem to be much of an upgrade.
Regards. -
Thanks for the replies. As far as thermal paste what do you guys recommend? I see Xotic PC using IC diamond on everything. Also in the beginning of this thread, it was mentioned that re-pasting does not void warranty, is that still the case?
I am using Windows 10 and find it great. Do you guys have problem with Windows 10 in general or problems specific to the P35x V3? -
As for the warranty, re-pasting does NOT void it, but don't remove the fans, they got the warranty stickers on them. As long as you don't leave physical damages and break no stickers. The heatpipe also use thermal tapes along with thermal paste, make sure you place them back where they were and keep them flat.
Regards -
-
The heatpipe can be remove without taking the fans off, just be cautious and take your time in general.
Have fun.

You have been super helpful. I have another question and I know little about this subject.
I am looking at buying an external monitor. Specifically https://teksyndicate.com/videos/x-s...g-psl-panel-led-matte-screen-monitor-overview.
This monitor takes DVI-D. Its 2560 x 1440. What do I need to do to be able to play the native resolution at 60 Hz at least ?(it is said to be overclockable to 90Hz). Do I need to go through the mini-display port? If so what kind of cable would I need to achieve this? Its selling for $199 brand new and it is too good to pass if possible to work. If the cable is going to be $100 then there is no point in getting it. -
I believe the laptop supports 4k display over HDMI/miniDP, not exactly sure about refresh rate.
While 980m is very capable mGPU, it could still struggle to play latest games with ultra high settings on 2560x1440 at constant 60fps, therefore maybe hold on to the thought of OC the monitor to 90Hz.
Regards. -
I was under the impression that HDMI 1.4 is only going to output at 30Hz at the native 2560x1440. Not sure though. I am having a very difficult time finding a mini display port to DVI-D connector that supports resolutions higher than 1080p at 60Hz. Any links?
-
Never used DVI in my life, can't help you with that, sorry.
Just googled, P35X v3 has HDMI 1.4, and HDMI 1.4 supports 1440p@60Hz, so it's down to cable you use. Try either HDMI/miniDP-to-DVI under $10 first.
