Schlachter95 Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 (edited) Hi there, I have a question about vbios Flashes with the alienware 18. The Specs: I/ 4800MQ Dual gtx 880m 16GB Ram mSata with 500GB 2Tb HDD I have flashed the svl7 vBios to my dual 880m. First I flashed the secondary card, to verify, that the vbios works, an because that was the first time for me, to know accutlly how it works. Then I flashed the primary Card and all went well. Because the cards went really hot in short time, I decided to undervolt them, so they went from 94°C to 85°C with -37,5mV less and a bit of underclocking from 993MHz to 954MHz. With that they run very smooth and I dont have Problems like freezing or artifacts etc. But now the maschine cant run with battery, because the drive kicks out every time the cards get load. And 2nd, I recognized if I Play something like Witcher 3 or Rise of the Tomb Rider, my battery dropped a bit like 30min of play it dropped 6-8%. Its like my ac adapter have not enough Power for that bad boys and the rest of the system. So can I damage my Motherboard or my battery with that like the maschine takes to much power or stuff like that, or are the Graphics cards independent of that? And sorry guys for my bad english Edited April 21, 2017 by Schlachter95 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-Face Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 It has potential to cause some severe damage to the motherboard depending on what kind of damage it causes, likely only to the card itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
