    I use anime pictures to express different state of emotions.

    Using emoticons is meh and not using anything at all is not expressive enough. Even for expressing an expressionless expression. And that makes sense in English...

    It's kinda my signature thing [?], I hope it doesn't bother anyone, I want to color everyone's life a bit and anime girls are cute, cute brings happiness.

    I've never played BF1... No idea how it feels like.

    I shall give a try to .06 driver thingy for notebooks and come back with reports.

    I've only noticed some glimmer and jumpy objects so far and did my best to ignore them, no idea if bad drivers were causing them or not...

    It's actually 16 according to Romanian (and most of EU) law, but don't mind us Europeans :D

    IA?...

    She doesn't have an age to be honest... Vocaloid characters aren't thought to have an age by themselves, they're robotic voices made to make music, every character design is made as a design by itself without any details offered by the official creators (Yamaha - Vocaloid). I'm not even sure they actually made the physical designs of the characters or those are all fan made.



    I'm both a writer and an anime artist, all characters that need to be 18 are, all characters that serve other roles to the stories have their own age and roles to the story.



    Nep Nep doesn't have a display age to my knowledge for example, yet Neptunia series contain a ton of fan service featuring her, and the series are quite successful world-wide.

    [​IMG]



    Oh well, anime requires a certain level of acceptance before venturing in.

    For the record, this is a high school boy.

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]





    But yeah, anime images I post will all be legal, that won't be a problem.


    Those two characters are both teachers that are over 30 years old.

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]


    (This is this boy's teacher in the story, a really funny comedy show, NouCome)
    [​IMG]

    Not a joke, not trolling, and the stories are very well made, those characters actually work wonderful with the worlds depicted in those anime (To aru series and NouCome series).

    Then again, they serve either comedic or dramatic / tragic role so this explains a lot on why they're made like this, the characters and the worlds are constructed to send an idea, an emotion, a concept, while I use characters out of context to express feelings and what I do is both wrong and misleading :confused: :eek: :D

    LOLXD

    I'm actually a married man, anime and visual novels are both my hobby and my work. And it's a lot of fun!

    Totally recommend trying those hobbies!

    I'll try to get back on thread.

    Is it possible to achieve 4.4 on a single thread and 4.2 on all threads in any way without applying any undervoltage?

    EDIT::: Everytime I try, I seem to induce some kind of instability, and I'm not sure why...

    Will this kill anything?...

    The scores seem okay with .06 video drivers, but as soon as I go to a 4.4 on 2 cores and 4.2 on all cores, I get those crazy temps.... I already have -56mV.

    So far it seems crazy stable and acts as it should.

    You desperately need a repaste, delid, better heatsink, or all three. Are you still on the factory paste job?

    No factory paste, I have IC I think, I cannot delid whilst keeping my warranty, and I don't think that my reseller would allow me to get another heatsink.

    EDIT::: The worst that can happen is the CPU burns down, situation in which by that time I should already have a 7700K, so maybe I should ignore it?

    I cannot undervolt anymore, the whole system gets glitchy.

    Some CPUs are just not going to undervolt, they just met the requirements by Intel.

    Oh, didn't know this...

    So... I have to just live with it at 98C at 4.4 or downclock it and live with smaller speed and have it stuttery?

    I don't want to play silicon lottery again, plus the performance is ok, but I don't know what can happen at those temps..

    You can check the paste job and de-lidding can help but that has warranty implications.

    That would be up to @Prema and HIDevolution. They might use their own EVOC logo, but I seriously doubt it will be the butt-ugly generic StyleNote logo.

    Yeah, I'd guess the EVOC logo too. HID should totally put up an option to get the Prema logo for some extra $25 or so which gets directly donated to Prema.

    For sure the EVOC logo.

    For those that haven't already seen them, these should be helpful if you are new to overclocking and plan to get your feet wet with a PremaMod monsterbook.

    Be sure to watch all three videos because I use different settings in all three. All of the settings worked OK for me.

    You may have to adjust a little for your unique CPU since no two are ever identical. Consider what you see as a potential starting point.

    Yes, and some additional adjustments are needed due to Clevo firmware being so badly screwed up by default.

    The new premamod bios.

    Ok, so I just got back and a chance to run a quick test or two...
    Almost 5.050 ghz. Not to bad. And ram at 1600 mhz. for a first try. :)
    http://valid.x86.fr/gu3l69

    Side note. No extra bios tweaking on my part. Just set some settings that were exposed in the oem bios and hit enter. The main difference is the bclk.

    Edit: No, this does not come standard on a regular bios. EVER!

    Oh man I can't wait to get the Prema bios to set this machine free and and get it running how it should. I almost can't be bothered fighting with the machine in it's current state.

    A question about the BGA machines, have any of you encountered "GT: Fuses limit" as a throttle reason even though temps are in check and TDP is well below PL1/PL2? The iGPU is not being used by anything.

    I know that you can fix this by installing XTU, but wondering what happened with the stock bios? Tried the factory and recently released "patch" bios for the 15R3's temperature problem.

    Maybe they made a change to the GT domain. Which is technically for intel graphics. Did you check to make sure those settings are in fact default?

    I'm not exactly sure, I didn't touch the iGPU controls at all on XTU so I presumed it was default.

    The current one on my sig doesn't have XTU installed yet.


    Edit: Before XTU I will try with dGPU mode FN+F7 and report back.
