I506dk Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 (edited) With non-k Skylake Overclocking becoming more popular, I decided to see what it’s limits were. Non-k mobile Overclocking stops at 102.7 MHz bclk with the integraed graphics still enabled. My goal was to bypass this with an eGPU and see what could be done. I currently have an old Radeon HD 4450 connected through my M.2 slot on my motherboard. Only issue is, nothing seems to recognize the card. I did check to see if the M.2 supports pci lanes and it does. Gpu is being powered by a 400w psu. The Gpu fan does turn on, leading me to think that it is getting some kind of pci connection. Any help in trying to get the gpu to show up in device manager or work is greatly appreciated. More pictures of the current setup are also HERE if that helps.

I506dk Posted December 14, 2018 Author Share Posted December 14, 2018 Eventually gave up on this. It was an attempt to bypass the internal graphics and hopefully overclock the cpu more. Perhaps the external gpu was too old or not compatible. Don’t really know, but I never could get it to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tekoz Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 I was a bit hopeful on that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I506dk Posted January 3, 2019 Author Share Posted January 3, 2019 Haha I was too. Maybe with a proper egpu it could’ve worked. Would have made that cpu a lot better if an egpu broke the base clock ceiling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
