    I have the stock ram too, when you say it doesn't boot, it's windows doesn't start or the "true" boot ?do you see the msi logo ?

    Also tried above settings with no success. How we can check what die type ram is this?
    During weekend, if I have time I will check also my stock Samsung 2400 RAMs behavior. Maybe its my CPU or maybe is some screw up in BIOS System Agent configuration. I really don't know.

    In BIOS I only have change the followings:
    1. CPU Flex Ratio Override: Enabled & CPU Flex Ratio: 8
    2. SGX: Disabled
    3. Intel Speed Shift Technology: Enabled
    4. IMON Slope 50, Offset: 31999, Prefix: (-)
    5. AC Loadline & DC Loadline: 130 both
    6. Secureboot : Disable

    I also have occasionally an EDP Other Error on the Ring section of the throttlestop but this is appears only occasionally and cannot get rid of it even if I change the VR & TDC Current Limit Settings, power management etc. Don't know maybe is irrelevant have not any idea.

    Did you try to put the ratio at 12, and all other settings on auto (0) ?

    My best FireStrike yet. I feel like I'm not getting the most out of my 2070 super, however my CPU had an insane score of 23680. I overclocked my GPU +150 core and +800 memory. Any tips?

    Not boot at all, waiting 2-3 minutes each time, no MSI logo no windows logo. Then I hold the power button for 45 sec in order to perform a bios/CMOS reset and start over again.

    I tried what greninga advise, same settings as default with ratio x12 trfc 560 and trefi 10420 and uncore +125 (volt stock). Not boot at all. Go back to stock setting for now.

    Not at all. I receive this error on idle state. When heavy gaming or heavy load of cpu I don't have any error. Only this EDP Other thing appears on idle occasionally. But I can leave with that no problem.

    The strange it's that very high latency on ur memorys.
    Even at stock Cl and 2666mhz it's very good timmings. But cant understand why so.high latency.

    Dimitri, can you check if your ram are running dual channel when you are getting that bad latency and R/W?

    Hi everyone I’m a happy new owner of a GE75. I just received my laptop a few days ago. I ordered from @Donald@HIDevolution with the thermal compound and fujipoly upgrades. This replaced my Clevo P870DM3. Its nice not having to carry around the big heavy 780w psu anymore. In the few days I’ve had it I found I didn’t care for Dragon center but I do like silent option. I copied someone’s settings from an earlier post and they’re working well with my 10980HK and 2080 Super. Let me know if anyone has any recommendations to improve the experience.

    Here are my scores.

    It is reported by all the software I use that it is running in dual channel (CPUz, task manager, AIDA64, etc). How can I check tt during the benchmarks it is indeed working as it should in dual channel mode? I also made some tests with all BIOS default settings (except the RAM overclock section), but with same bad latency results. Finally I replace the two RaM sticks with the Samsung 2 x 8 GB 2400 MHz came with my laptop. Same bad latencies 80-90 ns.

    For cl20 2400mhz u can say its normal 80ns.
    For cl 15 17 .. 2667mhz something wrong
    Let's see overclock ur stock rams to 2933 or 3200mhz.

    Gratz! Damn this is a monster! U got it with grizzly optional? What paste and how is the temps?(undervolted) really I would like to know on any game u have what frames runs,to compare with my ge75 2080/8750h

    Ur scores its awesome
    My scores it's about 9900 time spy and 20700 fire strike.but my 8750h its fully optimize with no limits etc..stock was about 19k

    U will love it! I have it more than year and really never got any issue

    Here is my channel testing some games. :p some old videos it's with just undervolted cpu and stock rams. At 1440p the perfomance it's so good


    The temps that week raised cause summer it comes. At video its 20c room

    Hi,

    I have the same ram as you (2x16 GB HyperX)

    +40 uncore

    Other settings didn't work for me neither.

    I'm still tightening

    Sorry, I don't have the paid version yet

    Last month I installed win 10 LTSC. But to make windows work as good, the procedure to installdrivers and all staff properly takes long time. Don't think it is OS Issue here since I had the same results with win 10 pro 1909. The only thing comes to my mind is that I have read that if you had installed the dragon center in the past, somehow it is messing with the Bios and some settings cannot return back even with CMOS reset. I did CMOS reset a couple of times abt 2-3 weeks ago. Also I believe that the dragon center is probably responsible for the "EDP Other" ring error I receive occasionally during idle system in throttlestop. Sorry for the long post.

    I only try cine 15 with good results undervolting CPU SCORE 1230 TO 1267. Also on idle I cannot see any program use any system resources (system runs at 800 Mhz idle and temperatures are at high 30s with fans not run at all). Also memory doesn't seems to be overload too. In use on idle use any 3 GB paged pool any 150 mb and non paged pool 200 mb.

    There are some general rules when it comes to memory overclocking. For example TRAS should be 2x or 2x+2 TRCD

    That and memory has a sweet spot when it comes to latency. Get it wrong and you'll have bad latancy. I'm not sure how to determine the sweet spots though so i just do trial and error until i hit the sweet spot.

    Change your TRAS from 42 to 34/36. That should further decrease latency.

    I will try them later. After almost 2 days testing, my latency improved (but a bit unstable so far). What I did is to set the speed shift to 0 in order to spike the cpu with out delay during the benchmarks.

    I ordered the Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut on CPU + GPU, and Fujipoly Extreme option. I undervolted 65mv. I’ve been focusing on running Games with the quietest fans right now (to make my wife happy) so my frame rates are lower than what it can do but GTA V was was above 120 initially. I’ll do some more FPS tests. One of the first tests I did was to see what setting would keep me below 80c. That was 4.3 with -65mv.

    Nice ! 65mv it's the max u can push on that cpu or u have do some bios tweaks for voltage override?that loadline.

    It'd be great to have multiple results as this changes from machine to machine depending on your configuration.

    This value is supposed to be for the total device power limit in case anyone was wondering.

    It can be 2 formulas for tunning the rams.
    Some guys follow that u posted and some other that seanwee posted. But many test have show the tcl +trcd + 2 has better perfomance if its stable. I thing depend of rams

    Ram timing rules:

    tRAS = tCL + tRCD/tRP + tRTP
    tCWL = tCL or tCL-1
    tREFI = affecting read speed the most.
    tRFC = Laptop won't be able to boot or brings error if set too low.
    tWR = tRTP x 2, laptop won't be able to boot if set too low.

    thanks to @ hackness

    I've always used 2xTRCD/2xTRCD+2 and it's worked fine.
