Official Coffee Lake Refresh Thread/BIOS for ALL Clevo Laptops - RTX CARDS NOW SUPPORTED

I bought a cheap I9-9900T ES and it works. Pretty cool

 

Does anyone know how to get the full 3,8Ghz on all cores working with this unlocked Bios? The last time I Oced was with an old FX8350 and uefi Bios.

 

Even P775TM cant hold 9900K even at stock clock's. You will need to delid CPU and apply good LM (Like Coollapboratory Liquid Pro) and I'm not sure this will make CPU work on stock clocks.

 

I don‘t want to know if the the p775tm can handle 9900k or not. I want to know how to oc with the Dsanke bios.

 

Then start reading

 

I went for the KS so I could tame it a bit better with lower voltages.

 

Not sure where the confusion is coming from here. Set what ever clocks you got enough cooling for in the bios. 2nd page. Overclocking menu.

Asking how to get the full 3.8 out of a 5ghz chip makes no sense. Unless you are wondering how to lock in a certain clock speed. Then ask that.

3.8 all core is atrociously slow. Download Throttle Stop. Disable speed step. Force the multiplier. All the unlocked 9900Kx series CPUs can do at least 4.5 ghz all core with under-volting. With these sub par cooling solutions.

Can you please clarify what you are seeing, where you are seeing it. And what you would like to see. We can guide you no problem.

Thank you!

Sorry this post threw me off. You're talking about overclocking. The i-9900T ES is not multiplier unlocked. You will not be overclocking with this chip on any BIOS.

Try Throttle Stop. And see if anyone else is running that chip on their forums. Most everyone here runs unlocked K series. Not being elitist. Just letting you know it's not the best place. The K series chips "just work" with this bios. Most talk is about how to undervolt. Delid. Die sand, mod cooling systems to push to the limits.

But perhaps someone knows. Guys?

Locked chips are often not just multiplier limited from Intel, they have other restrictions often too.

 

I bought another Clevo. P751DM2-G, updated the GOP Version of the 1070 and flashed the Dsanke Bios. Everything works. Can I upgrade to 1080 without knowing the GOP Version?
It is this card

edit: Installed 8700k but in Cinebench R15 Multi only 250 Points. WTF

 

Yes, you can, if the version of the gop is lower than the need for a black screen. But there is a loophole, you take out the card and start the laptop without it, wait until it is fully loaded into Windows with a black screen, turn off the laptop by long pressing the power button and install the video card, in most cases the laptop starts up as expected with a picture on the display, but only until the next reboot the laptop, so after a successful start, immediately using nvflash, replace the vbios with the correct one with the desired gop.

 

Ah ok, thank you. I will try it when the card will arrive.

 

Yeah let us know if that [still] works! Very good to know.

On my working p870tm1-G it works without failure, recently I re-flashed the BIOS on gtx1070 in this way, which had an outdated version of UEFI (GOP)

 

Awesome! Curious if it also works on his version I have the P870KM1-G i9-9900KF (in the middle of y'all's. And one of the 1080s took a dump (wasn't sure if the GOP very would cause a no boot scenario). Sounds like in my specific case I could boot off the master. Flash the 2nd card to match.

...Wonder if I can install the SLI bridge before flashing while leaving SLI disabled. Or if it would be better to leave the cable ran but unplugged...just thinking out loud.

Back on topic I figure if the before and after model both work...there would be a solid chance mine could work (the reason...also concerned that the remaining 1080 might be dying too).

Can somebody upload the updated GOP files (0x000F), currently on (0x000A) (GTX 1060)

Would appreciate it, thank you!

 

Leave the bridge loose, it's a pain to get back in place.

 

Hello everyone,
could someone help me a little bit with bios mod? I have a P870DM3-G, it had a GTX1080 that for no reason stopped working while gaming, it has been more than a year and finally I could buy a RTX2070 to install in it, however, after reading a lot, I could mod the Vapor Chamber and assembly the RTX 2070, my issue now is, I don't really know how to proceed with the bios instalation (and I dunno anyone who can help me doing it in Brazil) or found any videos who could guide me through. In addition to all these, I'm quite newbie on modding... But I'm willing to learn and pay for service.
Also, if someone can tell me if it's somehow common when I install the RTX with non modded bios, my laptop to freeze in this "leader" screen shown on my profile, fans run at normal speed, however, keyboard or USB doesn't work at all.

Thank you so much in advance for all the help provided!

 

Hello! Yes, it is normal that on a standard BIOS the laptop hangs on the Logo, and it will be so until you switch to a modified BIOS. The next question is, which revision do you have rtx2070, the first or the refresh? Since if a video card with GPU Refresh, then even with a modified BIOS, you still have to fix the Inf file in the driver, and if the first revision is ok, the drivers will be installed as usual There is nothing difficult in the transition to a modified BIOS, you just need to strictly follow the instructions and have at least an initial level of a PC user.

 

Here is the correct instruction for flashing the modified BIOS, but first you will need to create a bootable USB flash drive in Rufus and drop the unpacked BIOS archive into the root of the flash drive. I will make you files that you need to upload to the bootable USB flash drive. https://disk.yandex.ru/d/AiN3yqGFdy0wCA Follow the link for a ready-made folder for flashing a modified BIOS with support for RTX cards. Upload its contents to a ready-made bootable DOS flash drive.

 

@MatheusLopes 2 things I am aware of:
1. The P870DMx has both a GTX BIOS and an RTX BIOS - You may need to reflash.
2. The vapor-chamber heatsink may need some custom pads to fix the 2070, but it should be do-able. Use small putty balls on the components on the card to map and measure the necessary pad thickness, and then double check everything.

 

the GTX 1080 arrived and is working fine out of the box.

 

Wow! Thank you, are these files the latest Dsanke mod files to put on my laptop, I mean, in your link?
just create DOS drive and plug on my laptop?

Also, I attached my chamber mod pic and 2070 chip, I dunno if it's the first or refresh version... Sorry...

I think there are too much thermalpads, but I also don't know Which ones i could remove...

 

Yes, bios mod for your model. You have a n18e-g2-a1 chip of the first revision, for cards the update chip is marked n18e-g1r-a1, so there will be no problems installing the driver. Remove the video card and attach it to the radiator and tighten the mounting bolts for more accurate positioning and inspection from all sides of the adhesion of thermal pads, while paying attention to how the video card is laid, there should be no distortions or kinks on it, it should remain flat. If you observe the bending of the video card board, then somewhere the gaskets of the wrong thickness are installed, usually this concerns the thermal pads of the VRM zone and the power chokes of the GPU chip, if this is the case, then select the thermal pads of the required thickness.You should also achieve the smallest thickness of thermal pads on the memory chips of the video card, since the thinner the thickness of these spacers, the better you will get a better fit of the heatsink to the GPU chip of the video card, which, in turn, contributes to better heat transfer and, as a result, lower temperatures on the video card. ... Reducing the thickness of spacers on memory chips is directly proportional to all other spacers on the video card. In general, the task is to achieve the most optimal fit of the heatsink to the GPU chip while maintaining a high-quality fit of the heatsink to the thermal pads of the remaining elements of the video card.

 

Modification of the vapor chamber for RTX20 in our execution for the client.

 

Wow! It's beautiful, did you sand and polish the vapor chamber? Nice job in this (in fact, I bought the RTX from a guy on Ebay, his name is Victor, similar to yours, I think he got his instructions from you, altough he takes his time to show me what to do and how to proceed, lol).
Are the thermalpads you've shown in the pictures enough for the RTX? if so, I will try reducing on mine and check temps, as soon as bios works!
I will try flashing the bios with the files you've send now, wish me luck! haha.

Thank you for helping so much, I hope everything goes smooth!

 

No, my photos do not have enough thermal pads, you do not need to orient yourself to my photos. You now have a full set of spacers you want, just make sure they are all the right thickness. And yes, we always polish the contact areas after modification work, this gives a profit for better heat transfer.

 

https://disk.yandex.ru/d/P9KBn05c71oPnQ I edited the BIOS mod loader, better use it, just drop the EFI folder into the root of the bootable flash drive, it should look like in the photo.andex.ru/d/P9KBn05c71oPnQ

 

I boot the other way, copying files in the root of the bootable drive... I started my laptop with it for about 5 minutes, should I turn it off and try the new way you put in EFI? Also, how long should I wait to check if it worked or not (will i notice with a noise or anything?

Thank you

 

Have you reflashed the BIOS yet?

 

To reflash the bios, shouldn't I just use the Rufus, FreeDos, paste the files and turn on the laptop with it plugged in?

 

Did you make a bootable USB stick with Rufus?

 

Yes, i did, the other method you sent, Now I will try doing it with the EFI, as the other one seems not to result on anything yet

 

After you create a bootable USB flash drive, insert it into the USB connector and restart the laptop, when the logo appears, press f7 to enter the boot menu and select boot from your prepared flash drive, the laptop will boot into the dos there enter the command meset as described in the instructions, the laptop will reboot again and the fans turn on to the maximum, as the logo appears again, press f7 and boot from the USB flash drive and then enter the command for BIOS firmware as in the instructions. I threw you detailed instructiEnter the command fpt -f bios.rom -rewrite -y wait for the end of the process (erasing, flashing, verification) and enter the command fpt -greset (the laptop will reboot with clearing CMOS)ons on the procedure))))

 

bios.rom is the name of the BIOS file in the EFI folder, that is, it is entered depending on what your BIOS file is called

 

Than, I might have another issue, besides bios, as when I turn my laptop on, no key on keyboard works, or it doesn't show any signs to respond any usb, I though it was something normal to happen when it needs new bios, but it doesn't seems so... Even external USB keyboard, or it's own keyboard, although it does light the blue led. Also, my monitor shows this "leader" sign... But I think it should be possible for me to enter bios, or press for, even needing a bios mod. Right?

 

Does your old card show no signs of life at all, or does it display an image without a driver installed?

 

It does not show images, in fact, when I plug it, it turn on the fans at maximum speed... I was playing Cyberpunk on release... And my GPU did a small noise like a component exploding... And after this, no more images...
After this, bought this rtx and try installing, Now I get images, but no response from keyboard or USB... :/

 

Does the laptop boot into Windows with a black screen without a graphics card installed?

 

No, it turns the fan at max, stays for about 15 seconds and disarms the laptop. I took it for someone to look and they said it's the BGA, however, it didn't recover even reballing... But I also don't know if it has another problem, as I couldn't find someone with mxm GPU... Or a GPU for me to test... :/

 

In this case, you have only one option, to sew the BIOS mod using the programmer

 

Damn... Worst nightmare. Lol...
I will order the programmer today and wait for the delivery than...
Is it simpler or much harder to do the clip method? Mind if I disturb you again when I get the programmer?
Thank you

 

Yes, you can program with a clothespin. But it will need to disassemble almost the entire laptop, the BIOS chip is located under the keyboard shell and has a designation on the U12 motherboard. You do not have a number of service centers? Maybe it will be easier to contact them? But if you still decide to program then let me know.

 

The problem here in Brazil, at least where I could search for, I couldn't find anybody who did this service, there is no service center from Clevo, Sager or Eurocomm... In fact, even the 2070 I had to order from Ebay...
Nice, I thing I can manage doing it with one of this, right?
it's something called CH341 (I confess, i never used one of this in my entire life, however, maybe I can do it with this video)



But instead of vbios, I need to look for this U12 that you said, and use the .rom for my laptop, right?

Thank you

 

In the picture indicated by the arrow chip bios

 

@ViktorV look what just arrived! Quite happy in here, I hope I can do the step by step, Do you know any video or can you help me on how to proceed using this programmer?
I could find the U12 using your attached image and what you've said previously.

Thank you!

 

Here check))) Cmos battery, remove before flashing the BIOS

 

Also do not forget to have programer jumper on pin 1 and 2 like this

Also for the bios chip to be seen by the programmer you need that the power cable be plugged in the mobo.

 

Just be aware for your VBIOS (if you fancy doing some work on that) only wants 1.8V supply voltage.

 

You should not try to flash the video card chip with this programmer, the vbios chip will burn out with a 100% guarantee
