  1. how does the P870DM-G BIOS compare to Prema's BIOS mod?

    Baked, do you have any idea how can I undervolt the cpu, keep clock on 4.2 ghz on all cores on your bios? I couldn't find the settings (or i'm blind or stupid:baby:), and also overclock the ram at 2400 MHZ ( but that's not realy that important)

     

    And Btw, for any of you who's having Clevo P870DM-G DO NOT ENABLE IGFX in bios, it will only result in a black screen (tried it and had to do a NVRAM reset)

    Another thing from my findings it is advisable to flash custom VBios for your cards before flashing unlocked bios coz it sometimes might result in a black screen.

    This only aplies for Clevo P870DM-G, I have not tested IGFX function on another laptop.

     

    Because it's blocked off on a hardware level.

  2. Hi, I'm wondering if this mod is the only method of fitting a heatsink to a GtX 1070.  I'm not sure if they make one that is made to work with the 1070 in the p870dm-g.  I'm currently runing a 980m configuration of it, but was considering upgrading to a 1070 in the next few months.  As I would have to purchase a new heat sink regardless, I would prefer to buy one already made for the 1070 if it is available. If the mod is necessary ill do it, but i figured i might be able to save me a little bit of headache and time if a reseller has them prefab.



    The primary GPU heatsink is fine. This mod is for those that want to use both fans to cool and do a bit of overclocking of the GPU.

  3.       900M Requirements:

           Flash latest @Prema's v2 980M & 970M (Please consider donating to Prema)

     

    What happens if I try to flash the old SVL7 VBios with this driver? Black screens? I wanted to try some 1.000V instead of actual Prema's 1.062v bios to see if somewhat improves cooling performance.


    Black screen because nvidia changed something in the drivers a few years ago.

    Would also like to know this...

    But I found on ebay a seller saying that this type of 1070 is possible on clevo p870dm:

    that's eurocom's ebay store.

    Nice work!

  6. the thermal adhesive seems to be working well at holding down the heatsinks. the thermal tape just didn't have enough stickiness to stay on and a heatsink would get loose when i would reopen the laptop to see just how effective the adhesion was and, as said, it wasn't great. So I used Arctic Silver Alumina thermal adhesive to attach the heatsinks to the exposed chips. I figured I may as well since I am not gonna resell the part later on so sticking it on was a good choice. None of the adhesive went onto other components on the board and it looks pretty clean.

     

    That being said the temps were pretty much the same as the 3 pipe 980M heatsink. On cool days the idle temp was 29 C but on hot days it can go up to at least 34-35 with fans at 100%. the load temps were also higher due to higher ambient temps so BF1 would hit about 68 C which is about 3-4 C higher than on a cool day. the temps haven't gone completely nuts post modification but have pretty much stayed the same as the 980M heatsink.
