  1. What max temps 980M SLI gives on max load? 
    I upgraded my P370EM3 heatsinks to SM-A and 680M SLI temps were similar or even cooler on slave GPU. After upgrade to 980M SLI I see up to 13*C higher on slave GPU (73*C and 86*C). Idle temps are cooler on slave tho (33*C and 34*C). I tried different mods (lapping, added extra heatpipe with fins) and even got a new fan but no improvement. I just mention that my CPU cooling is not shared with slave GPU as original EM heatsinks were designed.
  2. Hey guys.

     

    Need help in flashing (in Windows) my Clevo build 980m back to stock for an RMA due to extreme throttling and overheating.  

     

    It has been so long since I flashed my Premamod bios, I dont remember the flashing method I used.  However I know I did it within windows, not bootable USB. I do not have a flash drive handy not an external cd drive for this laptop.

     

    I of course saved my stock bios in case of the need to return, but would very much appreciate being pointed in the right direction for instructions and links to the proper version of nvflash for windows 10 x64.

     

    Any help greatly appreciated.



    It's most likely a bad thermal compound. Start from there mate. GC-Extreme is what I use.
  3. I dont use my P370EM clickpad that offten, but when I do I like it. I specially like the looks and huge tracking field. Overall I don't see what the fuzz is about it when you have a decent mouse to use.

  4. Another thing what I did was to coose the gaps between fan and heatsink. So all the air is flowing through heatsink. I used foil tape for that and it made my system even more cooler. Only downside is that you can't clean your heatsink from dust that easily. Thats why I use dust filters.

    One of my oc 680m's reaches 90 degrees as well, but when I turn full fan on then it's 81. Other gpu is 10+ degrees cooler.

  5. ChaozBR are you using high end thermal paste. In my experience some pastes like MX-4 will quickly degrade in high heat.

    1. I use Gelid Extreme and I'm happy with it. Also make sure you clean surfaces properly before repasting

    2. I use laptop cooler with 3 120 vents. All 3 have dust filters so I don't get any dust in my system. The filters restrict air flow so much that the cooler acts more like a filter than a cooler for my system.
