  1. That's fine - back to my powershell script fallback that I run using scheduled tasks. Runs on startup and resume from standby: stop-service -name "XTU3SERVICE" start-service -name "XTU3SERVICE" start-sleep -s 10 start-process "C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Intel(R) Extreme Tuning Utility\Client\XtuCLI.exe" -ArgumentList '-t -id 79 -v -70' -Wait Does the trick but not ideal... it sets a -70mv undervolt.
  2. Is it possible to add negative offsets to CPU voltage in the latest BIOS? I had been doing through through Intel XTU when running the 6700K at 4.4ghz. Wanted to ideally configure everything through the BIOS.
  3. In lieu of Prema's modified version, I have just dumped my current SPF1 EDID using moninfo, currently working with G-Sync LP173WF4-SPF1.bin
  4. My original screen was swapped back in, and G-Sync was restored. Been waiting since then to get a replacement screen of the same panel. Edit: Originally had SPF1, after a dead pixel repair I was given SPD1 that didn't function with G-Sync with my laptop, so I sent laptop back and original SPF1 was refitted to get G-Sync back
  5. After a few months of use I've settled on both a CPU overclock and an overvolt. This seems to have helped with the throttling. I've set the 6700K cpu speed to 4.4Ghz for 1-4 cores active, using a core voltage offset at -75mV. I was running at -80mV but my Dwarf Fortress save got mysteriously corrupted, so upped it slightly just in case it was related. My GPU has limited capacity to overclock though.. +60mhz gpu clock is close to the limit for my stable 980. Have left the GPU ram at defaults... didn't seem worth the time to raise that when the default clocks are more than sufficient.
  6. Although I bought from scan, I sure enough that they are selling an identical chassis
  7. I haven't found much chatter about it, plenty about the P870DM though. Hhappy with the P775DM1 here
  8. I have a P775DM1-G, I have left Furmark running with a mild overclock (+50, giving 1227 core clock) and no issues whatsoever. I had the Intel XTU Burn Test running at the same time. The 6700K got too hot and throttled, but I suspect that was due to running it at 4.5Ghz. No issues with the GPU, nor shutdowns. I think even the P870DM may struggle to cool a normal 6700K at full pelt. I have been playing Tomb Raider on the P775DM1-G, at a higher detail than my old desktop PC, and it runs smoothly with the fans "relatively" quietly. Having owned the P775DM1-G for a couple of months now, I don't see any personal benefit that I could have gained by paying extra for a larger chassis and better cooling in the P870DM. The cost saving paid for a NVME 950 Pro... If money is no object go for the more expensive one. I'm happily playing games without feeling like I've missed out on anything. It works out the box. I've never had SLI and don't want to have to worry about SLI profiles or whether a game supports it, the 980 just works. The CPU throttles a bit due to current limit throttling...
  9. Alas the lubuntu distribution on there does not support my P775DM1-G. I'm not brave enough to try harder with this. Especially with an upcoming warranty repair.
  10. Dumped and attached to this post in case you find anything of interest dspinfo.bin
  11. Perfect! Updated smoothly. Didn't fix the G-Sync loss. Going back for repair in Feb anyway.
  12. BIOS has been updated to 1.05.05. Performed a fresh installed of Nvidia drivers. Still no G-Sync! Laptop is due for hardware based repair in February.
