Clevo Overclocker's Lounge

not playing the Russian roulette with my card thank you

 

haha True, its more important for people using 4k panels, since loads on the GPU are much higher.

 

hey bros i have this really strange behaviour on my xmg u726. i was just on a teamviewer session with @Phoenix trying to help me but this specific puzzle we just couldn't solve: check the screenshot. i have a i7 6700k...xtu shows the max non turbo multi as 34..and i can't raise it
does anyone have an idea as of how to change / fix this?
thanks so much all

Maximum processor Frequency something something, in your power profiles.

 

This is an ill affect of the stock bios so it can under clock the CPU to save power. I saw the same issue before prema released his bios.

 

seriously? damn...i start to hate this stock bios more and more every day, and the fact that i live in the country i live in (with no possibility to reach out to a prema partner when i got the machine) even more..
thx for your info man!

 

Did you check the power profile? Might be worth a shot.

 

did it right now minimum cpu state is set to 100% (high power plan). no dice ;-(

 

Damn. Sorry it didn't help. I guess Prema BIOS will be your only hope.

 

no worries, thx for your input though man!

 

I recommend if you managed to get the Prema BIOS to download the latest drivers and keep them ready then format your machine to totally get rid of that XTU virus as it messes up the fan tables. Uninstalling it only will not help:

Clevo P870DM/DM-G Drivers Mirror

NBR Windows 10 Clean Installation Guide

 

i hope to, i did as you suggested @Phoenix

the fan tables? it get's better and better

 

updating new Killer WLAN/Bluetooth Drivers as we speak, so if you have the Killer AC1535 card, refresh the drivers page in 7 minutes to get the new ones

 

nah bro i got the intel card keep up the work dude!

 

Not sure about that.. Stock Bios here, 6700K max non turbo at 40x, and I havent adjusted it

 

That's a good thing did you both purchase from the same place? The stock bios I had acted in the same way as mentioned before.

Does your bios power limit throttle?

i got mine from schenker.

hey man, are you the person who said that if you dont install XTU, you won't see the overclocking fan profile in the control center?

 

sweeet!! you were just a few points from the leader in this benchmark kpaxxx who got Score: 26443

 

ooops

 

so @ALL i reflashed the bios i have on the machine.. before i did this i uninstalled xtu. after reflashing i reinstalled xtu and booooom, max non turbo multi: 40 :-D

wow! awesome dude! who would've thought!

 

totally bro! strange as hell. must have been some kind of messed up setting that xtu came up with at some point..

Sweet, I was using XTU when the system first came out too so something possibly the same happened on mine as well. Thanks for reporting the fix that will help others.

 

@Prema

I remember when I first got my Sky X9, Eurocom sent me a separate EC Firmware update, from then on, it was just BIOS updates

so my question is, do those BIOS updates also include the latest EC firmware or must one flash the EC firmware separately?

 

Yeah I know, LOL

 

sorry that wasnt me

 

you mean max out the turbo boost power max? maximum value is 511w so to that? also any tips on overclocking the gpu? aside from the normal +135 +300?

 

You should have Asssd max score for both Raaid and single ssd on the first page , HAHAaaaaaa. But No, You want only to be alone on the leaderboard. Dang, HaHaaaaaaaa. But Nice score

 

Are you on stock vbios or prema vbios? Whats the asic value?

 

here is a screenshot. also this are the normal values of my cpu on xtu. 42 on 1 core and 40 on the 3 cores and processor core ratio at 41x. is this normal? I set everything back to normal because its really hot now in the Philippines around 36c in the afternoon and maybe thats why core 0 and 3 peaked at 91 and 92 respectively. oh btw really appreciate you helping me out.

 

Rules of the game, use whatever tools you can to smoke 'em

You have the same system you can do RAID 0 if you want but until then, let me enjoy the glory of your defeat

 

Turbo boost Package short and long is too low. At least double the values and test in bench (I understand that it's hot where you are, but these values are too low anyway). CPU core and Cashe is right for stock speed .

Now I begin to understand why you wanted to start the thread , you will be mod and put all the rules, LOL

 

Those setting are default.

I would strongly recommend throttlestop made by uclewebb instead of POS xtu.

And that asic is quite low, whats the load voltage?

 

Actually @Mr. Fox said this rule to use whatever tools available when a forum member was complaining that this thread is not fair because people with a P870DM have the edge as they have better hardware, he then said, buy whatever you wish and use whatever tools, we do it for fun.

you smoked me in every benchmark, at least I can beat you in one

 

@Phoenix You might be interested in this, i changed my IHS thermal paste from CLU to GCE and my temps are way better. This confirmed what i was afraid of - the CPU heatsink isnt making good contact with the CPU IHS.
Since your temps are also high with CLU might wanna give GCE or Kryonaut a shot. I am waiting on my kryonaut tube to come in, but before CLU i had that i on the IHS and the temps were about 4-5 C lower than GCE.

 

@ssj92 question for you, can you please check what your max power consumption is for your GTX980 at the last stable OC after the FireStrike bench?
Would really appreciate it.
I managed to stabilize mine @ +273Mhz core but my power draw is going way over 250W.

 

Sky has no limit in love and war when you want to show off what your hardware can handle, LOL
I'm not offended, HaHa. Lovely to see great numbers on first page .

 

I know you are not offended, you are my old time friend and you know how we joke even if it sounds serious

 

btw. do make sure to scrub the shizznet out of the heatsink if you do decide to change the TIM. Because CLU made my literally silvery.

 

I'll check over the weekend. 250W isn't bad, unless you have a 230W ac adapter or something.

 

I have the 330W, so it isn't a big deal since 4.5ghz on the CPU doesn't push the bar that much.

But i remember seeing your benchmarks had a max consumption of about 205-210 W. Which would bring down the thermals a lot.

Feel free to do it whenever you can.

 

Going way over 250W... With how much? The machine draw about 240W with default 6700K and Gx980

 

Give or take 10-15 W .
I have a feeling its because of the 4K display ? But then again, @ssj92 should have similar or more power draw, since he also has the same display.

 

does that mean i cant get much when i oc?

I am keeping the cpu at stock since i never got to 90c+ on it.

 

sure thing!
strange behaviour..but i suddenly remembered that i already had a similar behaviour with xtu once before on an alienware where suddenly some stock settings were messed up until i reflashed the bios. just un- and reinstalling xtu doesn't do as @Phoenix correctly stated.
now saving money for a silicon lottery cpu ;-)

@Phoenix last night i played the division, and it did it again, went down up to like 3.6ghz on some cores for 1 or 2 seconds each (using riva statistics server to display hwinfo stats while in-game). really funny, as the game doesn't use a hell of a lot cpu resources. and surprisingly if i use something like realbench to really put some stress on the cpu and also gpu it won't happen. but yeah, nothing new as lots of people report this happening i guess
will talk to you later bro

Test your processor with Wprime 1024M(select 8 threads in advanced settings and run 1024M) Monitor package power+temp with Hwinfo during the test. Post the result and pict of Hwinfo afterwards.
Also run http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/cinebench-15-download.html
http://downloads.guru3d.com/CineBENCH-11.5-download-2475.html

 

This was awful . The processor runs for only half performance. And the processor is also all too hot compared to the actual performance. Either a poorly executed paste or warped heatsink. If your processor was going on right speed would the processor be unnecessarily warm. Ambient temp?
Increase Package Power short and long to minimum the double and run a new bench. Rather use Hwinfo64 for monitoring http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/hwinfo64-download.html

 

where can i find this "package power short and long"? xtu only has "turbo boost short power max"
