Hey mate, this is the Lenovo Y50 dump that you talked to Xentar about. We are looking for a fully unlocked BIOS to flash. Xentar has another computer on the way to do testing.

@Svl7, I too would be very happy to buy you a few beers, even if only with removed WLAN whitelist for my y50.

Idle voltage is still .8375V

awesome. would anyone be kind enough to guide me through upping the max voltage up just a tid-bit? I am using the custom MSI bios from this thread and can overclock my 670mx to 900Mhz GPU and 1300Mhz memory - however my results are a little unstable despite low temps, which makes me think a little more voltage is needed. I suspect even going up an extra 0.125v should be more than enough for me. Many thanks in advance for anyones input.

does anyone know if gt60 supports intel XTU? If it did, you could go for 3740qm, increase max multiplier by 400 mhz and increase TDP settings to allow the cpu to always run at full speed. When I did this to my clevo p150em I was able to run prime at a constant 3.9Ghz with all 4 cores fully utilized, giving me temps of around 80-85c... there was no point going for faster CPU as in the end you will be bound by thermal ceiling anyway so 3740qm would perform about the same as 3940xm.

i wonder if they've fixed enduro issues this time around? 7970m's performance was severely crippled by enduro and it took amd 9-10 months to release drivers to improve performance (i say improved, because its not completely fixed yet.. a whole year after the card was launched)

On a laptop, matte all the way. Since you won't always be in control of the lighting around you, you could end up with some seriously bad glare on a glossy screen.

sl7, would upping gpu voltage in the vbios also increase voltage whilst the card is sitting idle?

Well I guess it's OK then? A while back when I did it I flashed the 4GB version and it made the card unrecognizable to my computer, it was just completely blank. I flashed the 2GB version after that and it went through. I could OC up to +333 and +350 on mem and it gave me around a 50% FPS boost. So it does work. The only thing is, I think some games overpowered it because GPU usage would be all over the place like the voltage couldn't meet the demands or something I guess.

elmo, what model is your laptop and which bios did you flash?

am i correct in assuming MSI 670mx vbios is ok to use with medion x6823 with 670mx? Has anyone here with a medion laptop and that card successfully flashed the modded bios?

Does anyone know if nvflash for windows is ok to use with windows 8? I have a medion with 670mx and would like to flash unlocked bios to it.
