The Mighty Clevo P870DM-G "Phoenix" Gets an 8700K and GTX 1080 Upgrade

Can you guys stop?

I love my Ranger and dont need to be lead astray, were already going through counseling and its been rough let me tell ya.

 

What?

 

lol

But I look at the price and feel better again, thats waaay too steep a cost for me to justify, plus I like having 15TB in my main machine.

 

Maybe You should go for P870 anyway? Then you could add in even more Storage

 

I do really want a hex core proc but I still have performance to tap into in this machine first.

 

good man. never let go of a machine until youve made absolutely sure that u cant upgrade ANYthing else anymore

Yeah I still want to hit 4.5Ghz on the 4930mx especially if I cant get the 4980hq working. That I can still make the 1070 150w to see if I cant get it closer to 1070Ti, then RAM to 2400Mhz

 

Great, I'm still waiting for mine to arrive.
I want to sand off middle frame module, to give that small fins ontop heat pipes (on the left from main ones cooled by the fan) some breathing room, just like in original TM frame.
Did you modify it too?

 

Yep, that's what we did back then on our P870DM3's.
Dremmeled (completely cut) the middle frame and CPU stand-offs to fit the TM CPU cooler and the top frame for the third M.2 port of the newer KM boards.

 

Can`t say anything about performance difference (didn`t compare them) but I doubt there is any.
As far as compatibility, clocks, states, temps and general operating everything is fine, 100% compatibility.
Recommended (after all it`s the newest one).

 

This probably has been asked before, but I wasn't able to find an answer to this question:
is the GTX 1080 currently the best GPU that can be modded into the P870DM?

 

well, if youre able to mod the 1080 into the P870DM, then the 2080 should also be doable

 

How can download P870DM-G (6700K, 980M SLI) Mod BIOS ?
I don't know where to buy it.

 

You can't. This was a specialized version by @Prema as part of a proof of concept project by @Mr. Fox to get the P870DM-G singing nicely with a modern CPU and GPU. It isn't
available for download or general purchase.

You can always run Dsanke's TM FrankenBIOS which will enable CPU support for 6th through 9th series CPUs on your P870DM-G.

Just built my desktop, I heard @Papusan isn't the only one to break records

 

I'll be trying the registry hack on my rx 5700 xt too, might actually beat the rtx 2080 whilst being £150 cheaper!

 

Congrats brother

I expect you then will compare with an oc'd RTX 2080 and not a stock clocked

 

I'm back again, breaking more records
Finally pushing rtx 2080 levels now, even on the lowest scores, (gravity and reflection)
@Papusan @Mr. Fox @TheDantee

 

Did you pre-order Ryzen and Radeon XT?

 

Can it complete a Firestrike or timespy test? Would be interested in seeing its graphics score

Nope, bought the components 3 days ago. Got the card for £380 and the CPU for £320. AMD prices are quite good compared to intel and nvidia, on top of that I managed to grab a decent gpu sample. I think the CPU is a literal potato as it needs crazy high vcore....

 

Sure, here it is: https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/37708453

 

Quite a bit lower than 2080s no?

Remember the rtx 2080 has RT and tensor cores, this helps with it's score.

A better comparison would be the rx 5700 xt vs the gtx 1080 ti as show here compared to an average gtx 1080 ti score the rx 5700 xt is still slightly behind:

Not bad from an laptop from 2015. And new doesn't always mean better

 

Your results are impressive!

 

Which MEI FW version are you using? 11.8 or 12.x series?

 

We will go for +2200

cmon buddy, i cant beat you on score per clocks and frequency im at 2054 points at 4.6 ghz, that means ull have to reach AT LEAST 2233 points at 5.0 ghz

 

Please send me a TM board with the proper cooling and at least 3300MHz sticks Thanks

At least I do it better than this with my old notebook and Z170. Crushed it with one point https://www.guru3d.com/articles_pages/intel_core_i9_9900k_processor_review,23.html

 

nah, u just need faster sticks. im only working with a DM board, as well and at least you have stronger CPU VRMs!

 

I can send yoo my shipping adress in an PM G.skill? Thanks in advance my friend. I can pay for the shipping

 

You can beat Papusan if you have instant teleportation and borrow Pap's PC for quick benching and return it where it was w/o Pap's noticing it. Haha...

 

hahaha by "cant" i actually meant "its not acceptable that i am actually beating you" in a way of teasing him to do better

Hi, where to get this PremaBios to get an I7-9900k working and perhaps an RTX card in my P870DM-G?

 

hi @ Mr. Fox , i bought gtx 1080 and i made your system but system is not working, i use stock bıos(1.05.08)

is stock bios enough for tihs system or is it need custom bios?

 

i havent got other pc for try gtx1080, i dont know my gtx1080 GOP version so maybe that's a problem. my screen is not working and Gpu's fans working very fast when i was open my pc.

 

I'm waiting for your help. I have a barabone p870dm-g My system 6700k 980m sli. i placed the cables correctly.I think may be i back to my old system and flash custom bios and again i placed gtx 1080 ?

 

There was more than just BIOS for the P870DM-G. Did you do the hardmod to supply the 1080 with an additional 3.3V rail

 

I reviewed the guide and yes i I didn't do 3.3v rail.are there two different methods here?
1.methods green cable system 278-280 pin
2.methods 44pin 1.8v?

 

sorry @bennyg i understand 3.3v ray but last question is it 3.3v enough?
1.8V required?

 

Hey guys, got 2 x 1080's in my P870KM1 i purchased from @DaMafiaGamer (what a great guy btw) I have modded my heatsink for the slave card with a 5mm shim and its making good contact. However what i have noticed is the slave card is drawing up to 200w which is increasing the temp by a fair margin whilst the master draws up to 180W so i am assuming both are on different vbios. Would anyone be so kind to give me some help around flashing the vbios's so they match at 180w?

Motherboard bios flashing not a problem, but i have never touched a vbios and want to

A: make sure i am flashing the right bios
B: make sure i do not brick anything by doing something wrong

 

Yes there were, Khenglish tried getting the 3.3V from the MXM pins but soldering just the 3 fine pitch pins without bridges is difficult so he ended up getting it from nearby on the mobo instead.

And technically I was not quite correct, it's not a 3.3V rail it's a 3.3V enable on those pins (without which the vbios chip doesn't get power IIRC).

 

Which of the following two images should I use? And which is easier and more accurate?

 

The top one isn't a P870

 

Better and better from the old lady
