As Prema said, but I decided to try anyway: THIS IS WARNING! If you have Clevo with MS HYBRID mode, such as P671RG/schenker XMG P7xx/Medion Erazer X784xx: DO NOT FLASH any bios in discrete mode(where only nvidia gpu is active) unless you are 100% sure that someone who posted modded bios took it precisely from discrete mode of your notebook (so protip is: dont flash random stuff). It seems that in discrete mode, gpu has entirely different bios than in MSHYBRID mode. Even if it's MXM model and bios is storaged in gpu, not in motherboard. I flashed some clevo vbios on my erazer in mshybrid and It worked. I flashed EXACLTY THE SAME vbios in discrete mode and it failed badly: SCREEN WOULD GO BLACK BECAUSE OF LACK OF SIGNAL, AND YOU WONT BE ABLE TO SEE SYSTEM BIOS OR ANYTHING ELSE. I already talked about it. Intel iGPU is totally off in this mode, so it's only logical. The way to escape dead end from situation like this is to use teamviewer, for example. I managed to use teamwiever and flash stock rom again. If you hadn't install teamviewer, there is another way: reset CMOS: this should revert bios settings back to stock, which would switch you back to MSHYBRID. And then you can install teamviewer and rescue ur dGPU mode.

I found bios that works with my erazer x7841 (which is basically clevo P671RG). However, I flashed it in hybrid mode, dGPU mode has it's own separate bios. Does anyone have any knowlege if dGPU mode vbios could be different? Could flashing the same bios that worked in mshybrid be dangerous? I can't stand that intel crap, but +135mhz core is lame...

Well, theoretically speaking that technology is not Optimus licensed by nvidia, Prema explained it here: http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/official-clevo-p650rg-p650re3-p650re6-sager-np8658-and-np8657-owners-lounge.782595/page-6#post-10111394 Technically - I dont know if they are the same, from what I know in optimus dGPU is connected to iGPU via the same bus. MSHYBRID is probably the same... Practically - It works well and you can switch it to hybrid/dGPU mode in bios or in control center (which is basically the same, restart needed). When you are on dGPU only, you have acces to all of the screen settings in nvidia control panel, including custom resolutions. Thats why I need to find some non-optimus vbios version for my gpu BIG EDIT: friend of mine has optimus technology on some random lenovo (i7, 950m) and he had a lot of problems with graphics switching on w10. Laptop just didn't switch to dGPU in games for some reason, even if performance settings in drivers were legit. I have not such problems at all, however, I have another problem. HDMI port doesn't work when im on hybrid mode. On 'dGPU mode only' no problem at all, but with hybrid mode system cannot detect another screen (i looked into windows settings and intel graphics software). I guess hdmi port is connected to nvidia GPU... well, generally it is a good thing since you can always use hdmi on dGPU mode. That wouldn't be probably possible if port would be connected to igpu... which leads me to conclusion (if Im not mistaken) that both of gpu's can work separately, intel is totally off when on dGPU mode (here is your answer @str*_an94baller) and both of them are connected to screen (2 eDP?), and there must be some way to use HDMI port on Hybrid mode, at least in games? So yeah, that's different than optimus. And that is why it can be turned off. @Prema I didn't want to flash some random vbios but the one I used in hybrid mode. Doesn't it should be basically the same, but the fact there are 2 different vbios is because of hybrid mode itself? Or indeed bios is different and i should look vbios for 970m gsync versions (since they doesnt have optimus)? I dont want to screw anything Is there an option to flash vbios from pendrive before booting like on normal pc? In situation like this? Or I will end up without dGPU mode, like you said? Notebook boots firstly at intel gpu, right? Well, whats the point getting rid of iGPU optimus shenanigans if you are not able to oc dgpu Anyway can you guide me which bios might I flash?

Open your bios in kepler bios tweaker and tweak voltages as you like.

Yeah, 980ti is pretty strong card itself, it has a lot of 'everything'. I can bench some programs if you want (mine is 1450mhz), but none of my friends has 1070 yet.

Yeah, I know that pascal is near but I need some machine to study, anyway, and I got this one for pretty good price. Damn clevo. Such wasted potential, first gsync (yeah it has LP173WF4-SPD1 with mxm 970m) and now cpu. btw I noticed that modded vbios that I flashed dissapeared after I disabled optimus. Just flash it again, right? Also, I overclocked the screen (well known LG panel LP173WF4-SPD1, as I mentioned) to 100hz. It seems a little more (very very little) darker than stock setting but It works well. No frame skipping. I always overcloked almost every monitor I could, but never in notebook and never that much (except korean ones :D). There shouldn't be any problem running it like that for daily, should be?

Hi, recently I bought medion erazer x7841, which is basically clevo P671RG. It has i5-6300HQ processor which is not sufficient for me. I can overvolt and undervolt it (works great on -125mV) but can't get it to change boost clock with xtu or ThrottleStop. It seems thas bios is blocked. Is there anything to do about it? Prema, is there any chance you can help me? I already flashed gpu vbios. Mine 970m isn't OC monster but it works. Now cpu is the way to go. #donate
