P150EM and GTX 580M
MitjaStachowiak replied to MitjaStachowiak's topic in Clevo Reviews & Owners' Lounges
Ok, thank you for reply. So the 580 is equivalent to the 675 and I need the 675 VBIOS for EM-Series Laptops? So in the P150HM it should work with 580M VBIOS...? I told my friend, he can bring me the laptop so I can replace the card. I will post the results ;-) -
Hello, I bought a GTX 580M for a P150HM, that I sold to a friend. Now I'm testing it with my P150EM. The 580M came with Alienware VBIOS. I modified the nvdmi, to install the driver and yes, it works, but: I think, I don't have the full power. Windows Experience Index only shows 6.6; if I run Assassin's Creed IV, I have verry low FPS, Nvidia Inspecor says the temperature is just 48°C and the system's power consumption is only 110W. And Nvidia's system panel crashes... I flashed a clevo VBIOS (VGA Bios Collection: Clevo GTX 580M 2048 MB | techPowerUp) on the card, but same results. Have anyone here ever used a 580M in a P150EM? Do you think, this problems will be solved in P150HM? What is your Windows Experience Index with GTX 580M? Thanks.

Hello, when I try to enable ECC, I get the following message: "C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\NVSMI\nvidia-smi.exe" -e 1 ECC features not supported for GPU 0000:01:00.0. Treating as warning and moving on. All done. My Laptop: Clevo P150EM, Quadro K5000M, VBIOS: 80.04.33.00.35. I tought, this error might mean the Intel HD Graphics, because running nvidia-smi without specifying a special device-id will affect all gpus (don't know, if that means all gpus or all Nvidia gpus). But after restart, devicequery.exe still shows: CUDA Device Query (Runtime API) version (CUDART static linking) Detected 1 CUDA Capable device(s) Device 0: "Quadro K5000M" CUDA Driver Version / Runtime Version 6.5 / 6.5 CUDA Capability Major/Minor version number: 3.0 Total amount of global memory: 4096 MBytes (4294967296 bytes) ( 7) Multiprocessors, (192) CUDA Cores/MP: 1344 CUDA Cores GPU Clock rate: 601 MHz (0.60 GHz) Memory Clock rate: 1500 Mhz Memory Bus Width: 256-bit L2 Cache Size: 524288 bytes Maximum Texture Dimension Size (x,y,z) 1D=(65536), 2D=(65536, 65536), 3D=(4096, 4096, 4096 ) Maximum Layered 1D Texture Size, (num) layers 1D=(16384), 2048 layers Maximum Layered 2D Texture Size, (num) layers 2D=(16384, 16384), 2048 layers Total amount of constant memory: 65536 bytes Total amount of shared memory per block: 49152 bytes Total number of registers available per block: 65536 Warp size: 32 Maximum number of threads per multiprocessor: 2048 Maximum number of threads per block: 1024 Max dimension size of a thread block (x,y,z): (1024, 1024, 64) Max dimension size of a grid size (x,y,z): (2147483647, 65535, 65535) Maximum memory pitch: 2147483647 bytes Texture alignment: 512 bytes Concurrent copy and kernel execution: Yes with 2 copy engine(s) Run time limit on kernels: Yes Integrated GPU sharing Host Memory: No Support host page-locked memory mapping: Yes Alignment requirement for Surfaces: Yes Device has ECC support: Disabled CUDA Device Driver Mode (TCC or WDDM): WDDM (Windows Display Driver Model) Device supports Unified Addressing (UVA): Yes Device PCI Bus ID / PCI location ID: 1 / 0 Compute Mode: < Default (multiple host threads can use ::cudaSetDevice() with device simultaneously) > deviceQuery, CUDA Driver = CUDART, CUDA Driver Version = 6.5, CUDA Runtime Version = 6.5, NumDevs = 1, Device0 = Quadro K5000M Result = PASS I think, with my current VBIOS, ECC will not work. Does anyone here get it work?

The Problem is: It IS there! P150EM cannot disable Optimus, so I have all the disadvantages without lower powerconsumption :-( P150HM needed 25-30W on idle, P150EM 35-40W (Same GPU), because the Intel GPU is now consuming power, too. If I had a OP-enabled VBIOS, I could at least have the 17W idle power as a benefit... I can see 3 pros in Optimus: - lower Power on idle (what means no fan noise from the GPU, too) - support of Wireless Display (OK, I consider WiDi as unsecure and have never seen a display, that supports it) - no need of blind-flashing GPUs, because Optimus-Systems will boot and supply the screen even with wrong VBIOS ( - finally the livetime of the expensive GPU may increase a little bit if it is off, most of time) But there are a lot of cons: - IF the Nvidia GPU is on, the System needs 10-20W MORE power (My problem...) - Maximum screen resolution and color depth are limited - No support of 120Hz/3D TVplay (Intel says the IHD-graphics got their own 3D-technology (InTru), but I could never get it work) - IHD-graphics can just handle two Displays (Maybe newer IHDs can handle more... I'm not sure) - FPS-Bugs when some programs use the Nvidia GPU and some other don't or if the IHD-Chip is decoding Videos - No possibility, to let a program running on the Nvidia GPU if the power supply is attached and on the IHD, if the laptop runs on akku - The OS have to load both drivers on startup If I forgot something, please complete it. In fact I got all the cons with my current VBIOS but no of the real pros.

Hello, does anyone here use the K5000M in a Clevo P150EM? I have a (I think) Dell Precision M6700 VBIOS on it (Version 80.04.33.00.35) and I have one problem: Optimus does not work. The GPU doesn't turn off on idle, so I have to "suffer" all the disadvantages of Optimus without having lower powerconsumption... I think, my VBIOS is Optimus-disabled, because I used it in P150HM before. So which VBIOS works best for P150EM? Thanks.
