good post!

what PSU are you guys using?

my 300W failed at full load (GPUs overclocked) so i built this monstrous setup: 580W in total

the small box in the middle is a selfmade powerconverter

your welcome @Robigarga 88 !

beside the Testmode part (thanks @sirana ), you have to do this every time, because the driver setup replaces the nvlddmkm.sys with a new unpatched one.

you can find the new 1.6 version by googling it, however im not sure if its allowed to post it on this forum.

you can use my instructions

Hi @sirana!!

can you please teach me how to make SLI work in my clevox7200?

i've install both of my 680m , the cards were recognised, but no SLI button... Hyper SLI doesn't seem to exist anymore, i've tried different SLI but it didn't work...

can you help me? thank you!!!

Hi, im also running a X7200 with 680M SLi.

update your displaydriver to the latest Version.

Use the lastest DifferentSLI (V1.6):

1. Install Displaydriver (if your running win10, you have to be in "Testmode", just use a Watermark-remover to get rig of the white Text in the corner)

2. Go to C:\Windows\System32\drivers and copy the File nvlddmkm.sys into the DifferentSLi folder.

3. Run DifferentSLIAuto.exe and pacht it.

4. Run Install.cmd as admin. (it signed it, but fails to copy the file back to the drivers folder. however, we do it manually in the next step.

5. Now your file is patched and signed. copy the patched nvlddmkm.sys back to C:\Windows\System32\drivers and replace it with the orig. (make backup first)

6. reboot and you should be able to activate SLi

tell me about your results

Problem solved. don't know how and why, but it works now. thread can be deleted.

Hi everyone,

i need your help (once again)

i have a GTX 470M and a P170EM which i don't need anymore. so i tried to put them togther and sell it. however, the p170em doesn't recognises the 470M. (in the Bios it says N/A) is that normal? The laptop goes berserk after 1 minute (fans 100%, beeping and flashing leds like the end is near )

so i thought the 470M is dead. but no, it works perfectly in my X7200!!

my other thought was that the p170em is somehow damaged. so i put my 680M in it -> works like a charm.

so the question is: whats wrong with my p170em and 470M? are they even compatible?

thanks!

Hi! i can flash your 680M if you want. im from austria btw.

You need to know the code on it...it seem the heatsink of the clevo d900.. very similar, but under the fan have a different chopper line layout (it doesn't have the line that goes back to the little chips and ram)..if  is cheap i'd buy it to give a try..

so i found a other heatsink (for 25€ ) which is pulled from a X8100. as far as i know, it can be modified to fit into a x7200.

i will let you know if it really fits and how it performs under gpu load.

It is not a GPU heatsink from X7200.

Ask them http://www.clevo-computer.de/  for a right one.

You can find a part reference number in service manual on this forum.

i already asked them. they don't have it anymore in stock.

I was using GTX660M and somehow it burnt. I bought 680M ( Clevo model ). I have an issue about this card. Whenever i play a game after 5 mins ( about ) it returns to desktop and i cannot return the game. I have to stop the game. I tried to use DDU and reinstall driver again and again. I installed win10 again. Nothing has changed. 

I am getting "The description for Event ID 13 from source nvlddmkm cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer." message. After some research i downgraded the card's memory clock about 50-75 mhz.it worked. I can play games but it droped from 120 to 60 fps.  Is there any solution to this problem. I mean updating vbios (  vbios: 80.04.29.00.01  ) or Overclocking the other parts of the laptop. I have prema bios mod v2 2T version. 

this sounds like a software problem. it may sounds stupid, but if you still facing this problem, try Windows 7 instead of Win 10.

Congratulations for  your purchase! i have a x7200 (xtreme rock) with a 680M in it, and i'm search for an heatsink for the second gpu too. 

my x7200 is able to run doom 2016 on high details with 30-35 fps...is so good for only one 680m!! 

i'm very curious to see how will work with SLI...

have you overclock your gpu? 

 

thank you buddy!

doom runs great on my gtx680m too. yes, its slightly overclocked: 850 core 2000 memory

with another 680M im pretty sure it runs a lot better.

From what I remember heatsink from the X7200 is a little different and better by the way. Is why I would add another stock one.
In the past I ordered parts from Clevo center in Germany.
I congratulate purchase. Were it not LGA2011 I would choose this model.

thanks!

i found someone who is selling a X7200 Motherboard with a 460M on it. he also offers the heatsink for it. this is the picture i got from him:

it looks different, but he claims that it fits into a x7200. what do you guys think?

OFF TOPIC: is there any trading-page/forum/thread on this site? im not very familiar with techinferno yet. thanks

Hello,

i recently bought a x7200 with one gtx 680m in it. now im planning to upgrade to sli with an other gtx680m.

but i can't find a heatsink with fan.

so the question is: does the p570wm GPU heatsink fit into the x7200? they look very similar. or does someone sell parts of a x7200?

thanks in advance

Hello everone,

i just want to share you some Hardware mod ideas for the p170hm.

the goal was to improve the airflow for the fans, while maintaining a decent look of the notebook case.

overall improvements:

GPU (GTX680M OC) about 7°C drop at 100% load

CPU (i7 2820QM) about 6° drop at 100% load

not sure if the two small fans helping that much. you guys think its better if they would suck in the cold air instead of blowing hot air out?

the fans are 30x30x7mm. the power is taken from the sata connector.

this took me about 3 hours to make.

from my experience the GTX485M in my p170hm ran about 87 - 90° maximum. does your fan speed up to 100%?

i upgraded to gtx680M. temp is about 70-80 max even with +100MHz OC.

//EDIT: can you pls post links to the hardwaremods you made? thanks

Hi,

I did nothing wrong. I got the card with a non compatible VBIOS --> I coudn´t even boot into the BIOS/Boot Options.

For the P1XXHM modell you need the VBIOS Version Clevo 680m - 80.04.29.00.01 'OCedition' revised_01.zip (sirana flashed that one for me). Working now in my P150HM

Hi there,

 

I got exactly the same problem AS described in that threat:

 

Same card (Clevo GTX680M 4GB) with a P150HM and the same symptoms. My card also has a Sticker with the vbios version on it, which should be compatible with the P150HM. svl7 is retired, so is there maybe somebody out there, who could help me flashing the card back (I would also pay for it)I can't do it by myself (can't even access the system BIOS) I'm situated in Austria.

 

Many thanks in advance.

Hi, im also from Austria. i am about to flash my GTX680m 4GB Clevo. i have a P170HM. what did you done wrong to encounter this problem. what vbios did you flash?
