Since BGA laptop is thinner and lighter, there is enough reason to buy one.
BGA has limitation but people who need BGA really doenst care about much performance but concern more about mobility.hmscott likes this. -
Serious note. Sweet!
How did you manage to score more at the same GPU clocks but lower CPU clocks? I have a feeling even my 4.8ghz is dropping to 4ghz sometimes.
Also how much difference does memory speed make ?
Also dang, you card barely needs any voltages to reach those clocks, or could it be the AC ?Mr. Fox likes this. -
Yes, AC cooling helps tremendously. It allows you to use less voltage for CPU and GPU. The colder the processor(s) are the less voltage they require. That was one of my first lessons from the master @johnksss - " keep it cool if you want to rule" - With Maxwell GPUs, keeping the temps below 70°C also helps prevent the stupid black screen lock-up that Maxwell GPUs are famous for when overclocking.bloodhawk and CaerCadarn like this. -
I think a single 330w psu fit much better for a beast with a single Gtx980m -
Here's a new Firestrike record @Phoenix Passed well over 14,400 now
. More like 14441P with the BGA PUSSY-crushing KILLER.

Hey Papusan, where were you able to find the AC-100 converter?

But how are you getting more points than your old bench at the same speeds???Papusan likes this. -
Sorry. I had to say this

@tgipier We talk about +++390w on a single 330w. This isn't good in the long run. More expencive if I need to buy 2 instead of only one extra. I crashed also 2 power adapters for my AW17 in bench. I don't want to repeat that.Last edited: May 11, 2016 -

A Portable Air Conditioner reduces that waiting time
You can also improve scores by stopping anything and everything not needed to run the benchmark. All apps, services, scheduled jobs, network, lower the resolution, disable sound processing, speak softly...bloodhawk likes this. -

I managed to cook a mix of settings based on what @Mr. Fox did in one of his videos , and now the clocks hold steady at 4.8 and 4.9 Ghz.
Managed to get upto 11.65 in Cinebench 11.5 .
But having a really weird problem with Firestrike Physics test. The FPS starts out at a good 50+ , but suddenly drops to 10-20 fps for a few seconds and then steadies around 45. Not sure why that is happening. When doing Cinebench, everything holds super steady. Any clue ?
I'm not having any voltage warnings like before, so seems that everything is well under limits. -

New Firestrike score 14449P by P870 BGA PUSSY-CRUSHING KILLER @Phoenix Dang!! Lacked only a single pitiful points to get 14450PI lower the screen brightness and turned off all the lights now so the single PSU shall not be so overloaded. But there is not much watts you save.

Took me a while to read all of the posts, but it was worth it. I learned a lot from you guys
Shoutout to @Prema for his sbios and vbios magic! Without it, this would never have been possible. Here's my OC results:
http://www.3dmark.com/3dm11/11244048
http://www.3dmark.com/fs/8451326
I could only get +240/+350 on the Core/Mem @+100mv. Initially, I've tried +500 only on the memory leaving the core at stock @+100mv but I get artifacts. I'll try with max voltage as @Mr. Fox suggested a couple of pages earlier.
Edit: No luck on mem freq, but I was able to add +30Mhz on core. Benchmarks updated.
Once again thanksLast edited: May 13, 2016Prema likes this. -
So my new heatsink for the 980 arrived today from EUROCOM, and boy has it made a difference. Earlier on i was not able to do +200/+400 with anything under +37.5 mV now i can do the same with 12.5mV. I cant wait to see how far i can push this card with an AC under it.
@Papusan @Mr. Fox How are you guys getting 55fps+ in physics test @ 4.8Ghz ? I was able to nail down the exact voltage where my processor is perfectly stable at 4.8Ghz with the cache running at 4.5Ghz (no warnings or voltage throttling), but i average around 47-50fps.
Any pointers? Also those dips to 10-20fps are no longer happening if i do the entire bench run, instead of doing a custom Physics only run.
For example this run : http://www.3dmark.com/3dm/11996906 Temps were all under 65C for the GPU and under 63 for the CPU. -
. I don't know, but try your previous stable 4.7GHz profile and test to see if the same happens. Your Firestrike score seems maybe a bit low as you use 1508 vs 1488 from one of my previous bench http://www.3dmark.com/compare/fs/7913915/fs/8449464#
Also same tendency in this bench comparison http://www.3dmark.com/compare/fs/8449464/fs/7924459#Last edited: May 13, 2016 -
The slightly lower scores is what I can't understand. I don't think it's because of the 4k panel.
I dont get the inconsistency with the physics score :
http://www.3dmark.com/compare/fs/8449464/fs/8455039/fs/8455117#
First one is @4.8Ghz and then other 2 @ 4.7Ghz as you asked @Papusan

@Phoenix @Papusan
If you get the time, can either one of you run the Skydiver demo @ +153/+250 and tell me what the max temps and power draw for you? This shouldn't need any extra voltage. Just run the demo ,not the benchmark.
For a friend of mine sometimes it black screens out towards the end of the run but for me it runs fine 3 out of 5 times back to back. Temps seem to be perfectly fine and cooling doesn't seem to be an issue.
Would really appreciate it.
Yeah it's the same with everything at stock as well. The Physics scores seem all over the place.
Also when I only run the Physics test I get dips to 10-20fps for a few seconds and then it goes back to normal. And there was no throttling happening, the clocks held steady.Last edited by a moderator: May 13, 2016 -
BTW. You also stay far away from XTU. -
These are the exact same settings from before. All that is changed is the clock speeds and voltage. But with the old settings the clocks would throttle sometimes. With these it doesn't throttle at all.Papusan likes this. -

But yeah @Papusan It happens with stock settings as well, the Physics scores always change around a lot. But the difference isn't this big. The last OC clocks had a difference of 300 Physics points. Which is just absurd for similar clocks.
Like these 2 results :
http://www.3dmark.com/compare/fs/8455039/fs/8455117#
The first is more in line with Mr. Fox's physics score @ 4.7Ghz as well. But the second one make me want to rip my hair out.Spartan@HIDevolution likes this. -

Some use Xtu for monitoring and bump up Bclk. I newer touch that bloatware. Only used on Aw17 in the beginning.
Have you tried stock processor? -

I got my Thermal Grizzly Kyronaut I think I will repaste when I open my laptop for upgrading to my 3000 MHz G.Skill RAM on Monday -
Main problem right now is getting Firetstrike to stop derping around.
Too many things to describe here tbh, but its a mix of TS and stuff i learnt from Mr.Fox's 4.7Ghz video.

At those clock speeds your CPU begins to starve under load, hence the difference in score.
You probably need to raise the voltage...Spartan@HIDevolution likes this. -
A few of these settings, no idea what half of these mean, so cant easily diagnose.
But mainly i have seen Thermal Event (Even though the temps are under 60C) , Electrical Design Point (for IA) and Max VR Voltage (for RING) pop up. But that too at 4.9 Ghz or 5 Ghz. Things stay normal at anything at 4.8Ghz or lower.

@Phoenix - this video is made with the Mirillis Action. This capture software is awesome. Thank you.
I played the game and then encoded the video with the CPU at 4.7GHz and the max CPU temp was 76°C.
