No, I mean 3dMark11. There's no 3dMark13 anyways

Hehe) That's how some people call Fire Strike - 3dmark13!

I thought you were talking about overclocked results for the GPU, cause i saw Prema 970M run and he hit 10.1k GPU score in Fire strike!

As guideline:

With the 970m mod you can expect about 10.1k GPU score in 3dM11 when running the modified vbios at stock, and about 13.5k for the 980m.

Gotcha, tnx! Also, you meant 3dmark13, right?)

Great job, guys) Is it only form MXM versions of the 970M 6Gb an 8Gb?

Only IPS display options 1080p and 4k (except 120Hz TN)

Better audio, internal and external

No more dvd-roms

At least MXM gpu, we know Sager does what Intel desires about CPUs, it could be soldered in the future with no options

Little more modern design to compete with AW, MSI, Asus, no more flashing logos on touchpads

Better materials, like brushed metal at least

No less than 210W for 15" hi-end laptops, 240W and 330W for 17" seems fine

Slimmer PSUs

Risky, but no HDD drives, couple of m.2 ssds with RAID option

Shareble HS for both CPU and GPU for single GPU machines with 3 slim fans (often CPU is way hotter the GPU)

If Skylake is around 100W desktop version than not much sense to make it work in 15"-17" laptops wthout overheats and thick design. So x99 18" with dual gpu seems like the only logic desktop cpu option, imho)

So, PREMA, how do you think Clevo will manage to fit 88W CPU and 100W MXM GPU in 15" case? With 6cm thickness, 3 fans, no DVD and 240W PSU?

let's just hope the 4K display won't be supper glossy and has 48Hz refresh rate like we saw on Lenovo! 980M + 4870HQ will be fine for 3K 15" but it's pretty sad it'll have "only" 4Gb of vram, probably the 17" brother will feature full 8Gb card and better PSU for overclocking, doesn't seem that Maxwell is much more efficient than kepler in high-end laptop segment

You'll have PCIE 2.0 max if you flash Prema bios

Yeah! You'd better contact Prema and install his mod in order to manually set ram speed in bios. It also fixes few important things for P570WM as well

oh wow..ill try the xtu downloading it now...i had 4700hq on win 8.1 before too that did really good..but maybe i should switch to win 7 too...what tools did u use to flash your bios? can i try that prema bios as well? would u recommend?

hold on for a few more days and visit here - P377SM-A / NP9377 | Prema Mod

there you'll find all the instuctions needed for flashing)

kingkaan i don't know why your CPU score is that low but:

1. I had 4810MQ CPU and windows 7 (on win 8 it could be a little lower)

2. Also, played with XTU settings and lowered CPU cache and dynamic voltage by 80mv and raised core current to 100 for stock clocks

3. Was using modded Prema bios with 4 cores at 4Ghz) Sprecial thanks to him as well!

Special tnx to Klem for custom 870M vbios for P377SM-A. It has stock clocks with no turbo boost. I was able to get as high as 1032/3000, but anything higher than that resulted in system hang, even with increased voltage. Anyways, i reached 780M stock levels!

Does your GPU use Elpida memory? Will be interesting to find out if the oc potential is better that on 780M

great! everything we needed to know in a single screenshot) no boost - no throttle! svl7 + johnksss custom vbios FTW

you should probably ask svl7 to mod the vbios for you for the card not to throttle. Does it use Elpida memory? Could you please tell the max core speed and voltage under load using the 2nd tab of GPU-Z? Tnx

Awesome news, Lee! Could you please tell the actual boost clock of the card in GPU-Z after load along with voltage settings and if it's possible to overclock the card, especially the lower cost elpida ram? Does it run hotter than 780m from your opinion? Regards

So which vbios worked for you? Did you backed up the one the card arrived with?

Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 4

Hi, Prema! The latest bios and EC on my NP7330 are:

BIOS - 1.00.05LS1

EC - 1.00.05SA

Is it safe to install your MOD? Tnx

Hi there) Could you please modify Dell K2100M vbios? Thank you

You probably need a modded driver for that! Search for custom inf 780M drivers

how can i overclock my GTX780m in clevo p157sm using a custom oc tool, the msi afterburner shows wrong clock as 324 mhz instead of 771 mhz which freaks me out...help me out please

install the latest drivers and flash your GPU using the 780m vbios and unstructions provided on the first page!

Can anyone help me with this, please http://forum.techinferno.com/general-notebook-discussions/4635-bios-vbios-modification-request-thread-svl7-2.html#post66296

Are there any modified 770M vbioses fro Clevo laptops out there? Tnx

Hi, svl7) Could you please modify the GTX 770M from Sager NP8250 (Clevo P157SM)? Tnx

Told ya)

Let us know if problem is resolved! Good luck)

Is your laptop on warranty? If so, try to contact your reseller or Sager directly and ask them to cross ship you the new HS while you send them yours. This is the HS problem, not the paste or pads! 780m on SM models peaks at 80C max during load, with fn+1 it should be around 72-75C.

Look at HTWingNut review at NBR forums, he was also able to OC 780m with no heat issues!

Any updates on getting this to work on the p370em3 laptop yet ......

Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 2

You can forget about upgrading gpu's on 3d laptops, really. It's possible only on AW laptops but even if you save 120hz there will be no 3D.

I know there're problems on upgrading gpu's on optimus/enduro based laptops, but why they are not wotking on clevo sli/cf laptops??
