  1. Hey, As, I don't understand why some people hah problems and others can overclock easily. I have some question to ask about your system. -what's the bios version of your mb ? I'm currently at A09 -In cpuz, section mb, I have : Chipset Rev 11 Southbridge Rev 05 -When did you buy your m15x ? I got mine in december 2009 - What was your temps in a game like bf3 at stock? On mine, it's 75 for gpu/shader and 81 for mem I have also a remark: I usually play through the hdmi on a larger screen. And I have a lot more reboot when I'm in 1920/1080. That's bring me to this : As your cpu is more powerful than mine, is it relevent to say that yours drains less power when doing the same job ?
  2. So, I moved a pad to some black boxes with a kind of power source label above it. It really helped actually. I can't play at stock volt/clock but it's a start (no reboot in bf3). I will wait for the psu. I read in an other thread that the 240W psu maybe was not the solution. Actually, it was you talking with @Strigae on the 6970 mxm card thread BTW, it appears the consumption of the ram is 1.9W for 4Gb dd3. It's not that much. And my dd drains 2.3W when R/W. So, how can it be a power issue?
  3. It's been a while since somebody pass through here but I give it a try. Hey Strigae, It appears I have the same reboot problem as you right now. I plan to buy a 240w psu to solve my power issues. I must undervolt/clock my card to avoid those reboot too. Did you solve it ? Thanks hi svl7 :-)
  4. I'm stable with this clock 600/800 at 1V maybe a little bit higher but not much. I will test BF3 beta just in case edit: The system rebooted after 40 min of game, during an otherwise, the game is very smooth but not as beautifull edit2: I got news ! The new PSU of 150w from dell is not quite the same than the one I got with the M15x With my old damaged psu, I have got less reboot than with the new one. For example, with the same clock, one make the system reboot after 10 min and the other is stable. IMO the old psu deliver more than 150w (180 maybe) and the new one delivers 150w or less. Since Dell doesn't sell the M15X anymore, they don't need 150W psu unless for the support. Maybe this one is cheaper to build. Damn ! I should buy the 240W. Do you think I can complain and exchange 150 for 240?<alt><tab> </tab></alt>
  5. I would like to have more feedback about this but I maybe have an idea. In your config, you have only one ssd which drain 90% less power than an dd. In my case, I have both (dd 7200tr/min). Is it possible that the dd drain enough power to be part of the problem? I say that without knowing what I'm talking about...
  6. Thanks for the information. I will contact mxm-upgrade. If I'm in luck, they will help. I have doubt about my vbios, could you check my gpuz please ?
  7. I try modded 11.9 and it change nothing. The card switch several times between 100 and 680 when I'm launching basic soft like thunderbird. I also lost the voltage sensor and don't understand why. Other crazy thing, the gpu is at 100% load in Deus Ex and no crash. The temps are also higher. edit: gpu 100% in 3d marks 2011 with crash after 5 min...
  8. driver version : atiumdag 8.850.6.0(Catalyst 11.5) /Win7 64 I will try other drivers. edit: Which driver do you use? I can't find an update. Rihgt now, I don't know if it is a power issue or an unstable issue...
  9. Yeah, it's weird ! Here is 2 other logs. The first is on Dead Island. You can notice that the gpu load is not at 100% and I had a crash after 15min. The second is on kombustor again just to see if the sensors was correct. And it is ! And the gpu load is well at 100% with higher temp in 30 sec. So what's happening? Dead-Island.txt Kombustor.txt I tried different voltage from 0.9 to 1.1v(cannot go further). At stock clock, it crashed after 5-20min in games. If I underclock the card (600/800 for example), the system became more stable. I'm using ATI tray tools to adjust the vcore and the clock. edit: I'm using the driver from your first post on this thread with the audio driver from the m17x driver and I was unable to install a more recent driver from amd (hardware no detected or something like that)
  10. Hello, I just tested the new psu (150w) from dell. I used this clock 680/900 and 1.1v for voltage. The temps are quite normal. My test this time was on Driver SF. The system has reboot after 3-4min in game. I'm a little bit frustrated because you can use it without problem and even overclock it. Here is the log. Thank for your help GPU-Z Sensor Log.txt
  11. Thanks for your information about kombustor. The crashes happened with not all the games. I'm in holliday right now so the temps are higher than usual. I will check the heatsink when I'll be back and maybe replace the mxm paste by arctic silver 5. The PSU is the stock 150w from dell but one day, it became unknown and I don't recall what happen. I'll test it with a voltmeter just in case if I find one :-p If I have to change it, should I take a 240w from m17x ? What do you think of that kind of retention mod ? It's in french but the pictures speak for themselves http://portables4gamers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=12627
  12. The keyboard is on its way. I first made a log while playing Deus EX but I didn't have problem. During the second test, I first launched kombustor without any option. It goes far with 90 and above temp but still ok. I attach the log of gpuz like you said and I used a book :-) Then, I launched kombustor with max resolution, AA and directX11. Before the temp could raise, the system has reboot. For information, I used paste from mxm-upgrade, I moved some pads to be in the right place. One more hint: my PSU is unknown in the bios and I don't know why. Maybe a fall or something. Do you use pads from mxm-upgrade ? I think I can use the memory ship like a grill Do you use pads from mxm-upgrade ? I think I can use the memory chip like a grill GPU-Z Sensor Log2.txt
  13. I managed to remove the key an clean it but it didn't help. I will look for a new keyboard, do you know a good supplier? Back to the gpu, I have power issues in games (dirt 3 HD all settings ultra). The system reboots after 15 min. Which vcore and clock do you use on yours? Thank you once again for your help :-)
