*** Official Clevo X170KM-G/Sager NP9672M Owner's Lounge ***

Just tested with new KM bios on stock settings

NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 (notebook) video card benchmark result - Intel Core i5-11400 Processor,Notebook X170KM-G (3dmark.com)

This is on normal, no overclocks but looks like no change.

 

Did some benchs, too. Bios 1.07.07

stock power mode (130watt): https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/68137594
130w -100mV/ GPU clock +50mhz/memory +200mhz: https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/68137964
160w -100mV / GPU clock +50mhz/memory +200mhz: https://www.3dmark.com/3dm/68137776

CPU score drops with every OC step. Wired...

 

Okay I am really confused
I am on 1.06 bios

 

How can I beat a 11th gen?lol

 

Took the plunge,updated bios
Will report back

 

I’m curious if the new bios fixed the issue with rocket lake and using all 4 ram slots ?

 

I don’t know,I’m using 10th gen

 

Did you mean commet lake

 

Commit lake is 10 gen or did I mix them up ?

 

Your right I’m sorry I saw that you had a 10700
I apologize

 

Lol I was just curious because people in our forum been saying there is issues with all 4 slots populated. I have only used the 2 behind the back panel.

 

from what I have heard,it is fixed
and it seems to boot faster

 

I just want to use xmp profile

 

i dont see a XMP profile , sorry

 

I am in the same situation too, I just wish I could use the XMP profile so that I use the RAM at its nominal frequency (3200 CL16) and not 2666 CL19. But unfortunately the BIOS I've tried so far (CLEVO and XMG) doesn't allow to use XMP profiles.
Does the new BIOS 1.07.07 allow you to use XMP profiles?

 

No XMP profile in 1.07.07

@bca009
Nice result. Wired why the 11900K has lower score...

 

I will retest tomorrow but thank you

 

For me it didn't until I was able to access the memory options to enable gear 2.

However if you was able to post with 4 slots and was just unstable it might have fixed that issue.

Wait, the RAM doesn't run any faster than 2666MHZ? Why do all these custom build config sites allow you to choose more expensive faster RAM?

 

2 slots under the keyboard: 2667Mhz
2 slots under the backcover: 3200Mhz

all 4 slots: 2667Mhz

I test it with 4 pcs. of 3200Mhz modules.

 

What kind

 

I'm guessing then the limiting factor here is the laptop motherboard design. Good to know. Almost seems like something is broken if it cannot run 4 sticks of ram at a rated speed for the CPU architecture.

 

Maybe that’s why origin pc said 64 gb max

 

Was this a issue with the sm

 

Interesting... the bios update (Insyde 1.7.6) didn't improve the stability of the machine in Balanced power profile, so i went back to Ultimate Performance. So far, it's at least as stable as Balanced was. So not a total waste of time.

 

Do you mean 1.07.06?

 

yes

 

Running 4 sodimm sticks in a motherboard is a totally different prospect to 4 sodimm slots in a notebook though this behaviour is odd.

 

Anyone else have the following issue when trying to open the CPU Overclock app? Latest versions from the store are installed. The app still opens, it just gives this first. None of the other apps indicated by the Clevo Control Center do this.

 

Reinstall it

 

What would the performance loss be for 2666MHz over 3200

 

1.07.07 seems even better

 

It would be a few percent on average, different apps will behave differently.

 

What ram do you suggest for 64gb 3200

 

Tried reinstalling the Control Center 3.0 Universal Windows App as well as the CPU Overclocking one. No luck. Did those steps resolve the issue for you?

(I know Clevo/Insyde have some software bugs occasionally, I just want to see if this is one I can't resolve on my own with a workaround.)

 

Yea it did

 

I got my machine back ( thank god )

 

I've not looked into much high capacity ram. Maybe speak to your reseller?

 

What was wrong with it

 

Suspect GPU 3080 HID replaced it. THe gpu was not in stock so they sent it out to there vendor felt like forever was over a month but seems to be ok
THis video was stuff i was experiencing

 

How is it working now? Everything working properly?

 

Anyone here heard about RTX 3080Ti mobile? I have sources that says NVIDIA will release in CES2022 and it will use GA103 chip with 7K+ CUDA Cores. Unknown TGP.

Is it possible that Clevo supports it in current gen? Or will be only for Alder-Lake+?

 

Alder Lake don't support MXM...

 

I didn't know that. RIP Clevo Laptops?

 

Definitely no Clevo with Alder Lake Desktop CPU.

 

Considering that Alder-Lake successor, Raptor-Lake is only a minor update (Same Socket, +10% IPC RPC vs Golden Cove and doubling E-Cores to 16), i don't think it will come back in anytime soon then.... i can't just believe Intel ripped MXM.

 

How so? Source? This would suck if true.

Thanks for the link! Hopefully they can work something out but with a market that has been shrinking rapidly over the last 3-4 years (true DTR with desktop CPUs), this may be the final nail in the coffin.

 

Has anyone had success installing POP!_OS onto this laptop,
I have tried myself and keep getting a blank screen unless i edit the CMD and place acpi=off, then when i go to install on a GPT clean drive it fails to install the bootloader. Then after i fix that the screen remains blank if i use F7 and choose the drive or shows the OEM Logo and stays there.

Would be grateful for some pointers.
