[Alienware - Clevo - MSI] Aftermarket Upgrades Driver Support - Modded INF

GeForce 353.06 WHQL

*900M* driver regression, core throttling 135~400 MHz, vram P-states matching (only). Unfortunately NV messed up really bad, it seems that Kepler wasn't enough, testing our patience...rather than drivers itself (980 Ti release). Voice your opinions here Official NVIDIA 353.06 WHQL Game Ready Display Driver Feedback Thread

I have very little spare time, I'll try to work around it...shady business practices by Nvidia!

Feedback please, AW17/M17x Optimus mode & M18xR2?

900M's driver regression, still broken...install v350.12 or v353.00. Update game profiles using GeForce Experience http://international.download.nvidia.com/GFE/GFEClient/2.4.5.54/GeForce_Experience_v2.4.5.54.exe, once updated -> uninstall GFE <- and reboot.

*Single GPU* after rebooting open NV Inspector and set "Frame Rate Limiter" to OFF, hit apply twice.

I will test it with stock first and then with Prema's vBIOS.

Stock vbios seems to throttle like hell, SLI @ M18X-R2

Throttling is not fixed...vbios mod v1.1 P-states matching both core & vram.

why didn't i have the MFAA option in the driver setting? i using J95's 353.06

[ATTACH=CONFIG]15353[/ATTACH]

Run DDU and then install v353.00 from here http://forum.techinferno.com/nvidia/6307-%5Balienware%5D-aftermarket-upgrades-driver-support-modded-inf-28.html#post133900

Also try v353.38 Hotfix.

v353.06/00 mod http://forum.techinferno.com/nvidia/6307-%5Balienware%5D-aftermarket-upgrades-driver-support-modded-inf-30.html#post135452

v353.00 http://forum.techinferno.com/nvidia/6307-%5Balienware%5D-aftermarket-upgrades-driver-support-modded-inf-28.html#post133900

v353.38 Hotfix http://forum.techinferno.com/nvidia/6307-%5Balienware%5D-aftermarket-upgrades-driver-support-modded-inf-38.html#post137821

[MENTION=1756]twin snakes[/MENTION] MFAA is not supported on SLI systems, disabling SLI makes the option selectable.

It's for notebooks prior to the 2015 models. The 2015 models don't count.

@All *FW development* @Prema's Mods, I need 9xxMs ASIC quality readings, in addition to 3D voltage* on stock vBIOS. SLI systems please include both cards...;)

Thank you.

GPU-Z v0.8.4

Here you are @J95!

I wish i can use prema mod, but im on win8.1 and is in uefi mode.........

[ATTACH=CONFIG]15383[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]15384[/ATTACH]

Thanks man, please run the render test* to check 3D voltage under "Sensors"

Prema's mod works fine on win8.1 UEFI mode, just install NV v350.12.

Edit: you meant flashing?

@J95, i tried the 3d sensor, but it kept running for around 5-6 min, i have to close it because i need to go to work. How long does the whole testing take?

Just for a few seconds, I need readings under the "Sensors" tab.

1.068v?

@tony7755333 as shown HERE
