Clevo Overclocker's Lounge

I'm still waiting for one of the Prema Phoenix machines to show up.

 

Due to the complex nature of the logo, local (NA) printing specialists dropped the ball (after wasting a bunch of LIDs) and Clevo factory has a minimum order of 500 units which need to be fronted.

 

....


It's times like these I keep around the noooooooooo button.

 

Thank you sir for the fast reply. I truly did not mean any disrespect. I was really hoping there was some hidden gains with the GPUs or something. Or even some CPU gains that I was unaware of.

For the record I really love the blue and green default lighting after updating I would hate to go to the white only, and hate to have to install CCC. I guess I'd take the latter if it won't mess up my system, at least then I could control max fans from the desktop at least. I really miss being able to do that.

 

Seems like Windows 7 is working....I only ran one test though.

@Porter
This is just one example from all of the benchmarks that can be run. And the outcome will be the same i'm thinking....

Ignore the graphics score (still stock air cooling), but I want to see the 7700K beat this CPU score on time spy sometime (6637):

 

I mean BIOS logo. I ordered from HID, but I'm down for floating some extra money your way for a custom logo.

 

Are you also going to bless us with a solution for P775?

 

I offered you dickbutt.

 

Prema BIOS, not stock, goober.

 

You're right Paps. During that bench it was only pulling around 85W from the CPU which isn't enough.

 

I literally pictured ur avatar saying this and lost it lmao.

 

Hey that's Neko invoker yo. . :3

 

interesting tidbit of info from SL forums, showing how much of a temperature drop one can expect from delidding and going with LM between die/IHS:

Ivy Bridge: 10°C to 25°C
Haswell: 10°C to 25°C
Devil's Canyon: 7°C to 15°C
Broadwell: 8°C to 18°C
Skylake: 8°C to 18°C
Kaby Lake: 13° to 25°C

so according to this, delidding kaby lake is an absolute MUST, more so than all other mainstream cpu models before

 

Yep can confirm that. Was hitting 98c with 5Ghz before, now after delidding it's sitting around 80c under constant load.

 

what kinda specs did your machine have again?

 

@Prema, I have to ask, what are you going to do with your W230S machine now that you've gotten a P870?

 

Model: P870DM3-G
LCD: 3K & 4K AUO
GPU: 2 x 1080-G
CPU: 6700K & 7700K
RAM: 2 x 8GB 3000Mhz & 4 x 16GB 3200Mhz
PSU: 2 x 330W & 780W
SSD: 1 x 256GB SM961
(yeah I know, THX@Samsung's exploding phones for a 3 month delay on the 960Pro)

Will keep it as long as it runs, perfect travel partner!
I've done the entire P870DMx Mod on the W230SS.

Told you in September that the new 'portable models' won't have a 1060, so yeah...

 

but how is the p650 not portable?

 

Thinking more of the 11-13" put it in your pocket category. 14" is already border-line.
Who needs an additional 15" if they already sport a 17" with 4 times the power...

Usually it's either one large plus one small or a single medium sized system to have all bases covered.

 

I like having big guns wherever I may roam. Rule #1 - always take an RPG to a knife fight. It's far more efficient, causes more damage, and you get less blood on your hands.

For email and web on the go, a rooted Amazon Kindle Fire with Google launcher is good enough whenever "ultra portable" actually matters, and for less than $50 USD the price is hard to argue with. For the cost of a few day's worth of lunch money it doesn't need to be anything special. With a $5 faux leather cover it handles double-duty as a coaster for cold drinks or a fly swatter. It's nice to see a proper implementation of BGA as well... a fitting platform for throw-away tech filth.

 

Careful...if they're too thin they don't work well as door stops

 

I actually love my modded Kindle Fire. I would not use it for a door stop. It's the perfect companion on the porcelain throne, or for a quick Google without having to use a computer. With a screen that is much larger, it's not nearly as miserable as trying to use a tiny smartphone. By phone size standards, my LG Vista is quite large, (some folks even think too large,) but not big enough screen-wise to actually enjoy using it. But, these are not devices to be taken seriously. They are throw-away tech at throw-away tech prices.

 

I picked up a Lenovo Windows netbook for $100 to go with my P870. It gets around 7-8 hours of battery life and runs productivity software just fine, and I won't be all that pissed when it eventually dies on me because I can just grab another one.

 

Guess I better come clean.. I've adopted wifies Lenovo 10 tablet into the stable.
Still when it dies.. it's door stop duty. No rest for the wicked

 

After the book. A lot of people should learn from you!! +rep

 

how did you find one so cheap?

At 300$ price point, the cheapest laptops are quite expensive in Romania.

 

Buy used one. Don't waste unnecessary $€£ on filth!! Cheaper the better. A smaller loss when the soldered hardware goes into flames Then start all over again with same cheapo Junk!!

 

could we please copy paste these posts over at AW? *rofl*

#ClevoMasterraceFTW ^^

 

See if they're eligible in the benchmark thread

 

Question ( @Prema): does the Prema bios allow for AVX negative offset, a feature of Kaby lake?

Sent from my SM-G900P using Tapatalk

 

dont quote me on this, but i think i remember him mentioning it being included

 

I think they have more than enough with bending the third legs on the amazing Tripod cpu heatsink So the soldered i7-6700hq can manage to boost up to 45w without overheating with the well known windoze <blue picture> in the end. Some will experience the new <Green pict>

Yes, this is confirmed

Very nice scores How much offset voltage do you need for 5.1 and 5.2GHz?

 

@Papusan That offset thing changes after every few reboots so it's ever changing on my system. I'm averaging around 1.38V to 1.45V at the moment.

Edit:
5.3 ghz Knocked off.

Getting closer to that goal of 5.5.

 

how? seriously, i mean....HOW?

 

Kaby seems to be quite a bit better than Skylake

 

I won't have Kaby until February most likely but can't wait!

4.9Ghz was the highest I was able to hit on my 6700K in the P870DM.

 

So for sustaining those clocks, are you just dialing in the appropriate voltages in the BIOS with high power / current limits? Or did it need a lot of fine tuning?
Also I'm assuming speedstep and cstates are on?

 

Same here. I was just starting to getting 5ghz stable, but grabbed a 7700K off the shelf. Glad I did.

This stuff is really not that complicated. And i can do it with just using xtu and throttle stop with ccc installed. It's when you guys start trying to overthink it that it gets harder. And running a 7700k is easier than a 6700k as well. Could be that 4.5 ghz turbo. That turning everything off and running redline on everything is not for me. I like my stuff to drop when nothing is going on. So c states and speedstep stay enabled.

 

Yeah, learnt that when is started using TS, that a simpler approach worked much better.
I perosnally always have Speedstep and Cstates enabled as well. But I remember that on certain architectures, having them disabled helped a bit.

 

And further nice score
I forgot to ask how high package power is with 5.2GHz in Cinbench. Maybe you haven't monitored yet. But still interesting to know. Thanks

 

This is true. It's why I use to say...1 size does not fit all. You have to adjust accordingly.

About 120W

 

Can someone upload the latest CPU-Z? I have 1.7.5 and pressing validate doesn't do anything. Also I can't download anything from their website for some reason.

 

I'm on my phone. Try http://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/cpu_z.html

 

@Mr. Fox ++++ All socket power enthusiasts.... THIS ↓↓↓↓↓↓ IS WHAT EVERY SINGLE ODM/OEM SHOULD DO... YESTERDAY!! FULLY UPGRADEABLE LAPTOPS IN ANY FORM OR SHAPE!! They forgot the wifi, LOL.
I love this picture. Pictures can tell more than words. I really needed to say this Sorry my english, but I think you all understand what I meant


Expected results from powerhouse, and NO JOKEBOOK's in any form or shape can do this. Thanks bro @Johnksss@iBUYPOWER for showing all people what NORMAL laptops can do!!

 

So.... I don't exactly like being a stick in the mud, but if on 7700K the delid offers more improvement than ever does this mean like... the paste used is worse?

 

Question. I upgraded my Sager bios to the newest bios and installed the 7700k but computer is just starting and rebooting never even reaching the bios. Should I have pulled the CMOS batter or what step did I miss?

 

@lctalley0109 try putting back in a Skylake chip and holding Fn+D while pressing power button without AC adapter?
