hugog3011 Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Hi ppl,Here are my answers: Clevo: P150EM GPU : GTX 680M vBios: svl7 vbios stock Voltage Core / Memory Clock : 936 / 1200 3d Mark 11 : GPU score 7612 3d Mark Vantage : GPU score 26603 I hope it's helpful Best Regards to all Hi MeNtAl_DaRkNeSs, your stock bios it's already 80.04.33.00.10 version? so you use the same oc version?

sg1shadow Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 I have tried 3 Dell vBIOS for the 680m (both of the non OV and one OV) and no matter what my clocks stay the same while in SLI mode. I can overclock all I want when SLI is disabled but I still am hitting that 135 limit. I have a brand new alienware m18x R2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeNtAl_DaRkNeSs Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Hi MeNtAl_DaRkNeSs, your stock bios it's already 80.04.33.00.10 version? so you use the same oc version? Hi, I don't remember which version was my stock vbios... Anyway I'm loving this vbios with stock voltage, I have great temps and great performance Best Regards to all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sg1shadow Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Anybody have any success overclocking dual 680m in SLI on an M18x R2? Do I need an unlocked BIOS as well as a modded vBIOS because whatever vBIOS I try the thing just sticks at stock clocks in SLI. I can only overclock with SLI off and I can't turn it off, overclock, then turn back on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Per Kristian Sørpebøl Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 clevo sells their laptops with bent heatsink plates so that it is impossible to get good die contact without lapping heatsinks. You can somewhat compensate by using a large amount of thermal paste, but flattening out the heatsink is the only true fix. I sanded mine flat on the edge of a countertop with 800 grit sandpaper. Arctic silver is an outdated thermal paste. I suggest IC Diamond instead.Yeah, I see what you mean, my idle temp on CPU is 77-80 Celsius.If I turn the fans to max with FN+9 it can't get lower than 72My 675MX idles at 40 Celsius so there is probably something wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only overclock with SLI off and I can't turn it off, overclock, then turn back on.I have the same laptop with 680m SLI.With stock BIOS I had a +135MHz limit while overclocking.Now I use the stock voltage modded version, and the limit is gone. What program are you using to overclock? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your idle temps should be around 50C.Check your heatsink, maybe the contact with your cpu is not optimal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hugog3011 Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Can i use the Clevo 80.04.33.00.10 OC on stock Clevo 80.04.67.00.01? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what most likely happened. Make sure you follow the steps for flashing the vBIOS correctly and repeat the process for the second card typing 1 this time.

Leezard Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 how do i request a vbios for my dell inspiron 17r 7720 with GT650M and i7 3630qm?*how or what program do i use to backup my vbios? gpu-z and nvflash won't work on me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried MSI afterburner and same result. I flashed each card separately.first command i used was -i0 -6 oc.romand the second was -i1 -6 oc.romoc was what I had changed the file name too and I know it was successful because both cards vBIOS changed in GPUz yet no matter what the 135 limit was still there and the cards would not over clock or over volt at all. I am using the standard dell A10 BIOS at the moment. My cards are both flashed back to stock bios and I know I did that correct because again it changed in GPUz. What could I be doing wrong? The new techinferno pop up did appear at launch of my computer too until I flashed the stock. I backed up the vbios of both of my cards but I only used one file to restore since they both had the exact same vBIOS version, file size, and everything. My computer runs fine but I would really like to overclock in SLI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafix73 Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 It's really weird. If you saw the slv7 logo at boot it means that you did flashed the cards. Today I tried flashing the cards again with the vBIOS I've already been using successfully and all went well. I flashed in the following way, give it a try:1) summon cmd.exe in Administrator mode 2) nvflash -b backup.rom 3) nvflash -4 -5 -6 "Dell 680m - 80.04.33.00.32__'OCedition'_revised_00 - OV 1050v.rom" (the most stable vBIOS with my system. It allows me higher OC > +292mhz core clock +400mhz memory).4) follow the prompt - it will ask you if you want to go ahead and flash, type YES5) it will ask you again if you want to flash the second GPU, type YES6) done, type EXIT7) reboot and check all it's working Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hugog3011 Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 Hi slv7,Can you tell me if there any diferences between Clevo 680m bios? my stock bios is 80.04.67.00.01, which version should i use? the same but only OC version, or other?Tks in advance!

foolie Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 I think i flashed the incorrect vbios for my clevo 150em. I am stuck at this screen and can't get into BIOs at all... any solutions for this or am i screwed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your idle temps should be around 50C.Check your heatsink, maybe the contact with your cpu is not optimal.It's just me being stubid, EVGA precision X had five processes of voltage tuner at the same time using 75% of the CPU.Now it is at 45-49 degrees and much more quiet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rafix73 Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 This vBIOS really works well for me, since I push the CPU to 4.3/4.4 when I play demanding games, and the cards benefits from its higher voltage (or the system would freeze for power starvation). I use a HWINFO fan profile to keep the system cool and the GPUs, even with a +292mhz core and +400mhz memory, never go higher than 70C ~ in game.

ErYani Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 Hey , @svl7Can You Upload VBIOS For Gtx660m In Lenovo y580 With Increased Voltage , my limit is 1250 core / 3000 memory please i want to reach 1300/3000 but i cant due to lack in voltage ifthat help am already using your vbios from the other post with ghz edition , please respond to this asap i already went to all forums no one help i went to overclock.net , overclocking.com ....etc , no one help please am waiting and thanks=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=Edit :- I Already Know That My Vbios Is Inside My Bios So I Cant Backup The Vbios Alone If Any1 Can Help :'( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sathiashekar Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Hi svl7, the oc edition of Dell 680m of the 3 versions you attached, which is the one i can flash again using stock fan speed and safe? i just need a small increment from 758 core clock from your vbios free download, the version of 1000v is good?
