I had posted this in the Razer forum but then realized that svl7 has his own dedicated request thread. Hey guys, I'm posting this as a request to get a modded BIOS for the blade 14inch 2nd gen. Would love to see an unlock for the 765m so we can push it more than 135 core. I will donate to anyone who uses their time to help us achieve our goal. Maybe the master himself, slv7 would be able to accomplish this? Attached is the original bios I pulled using the universal bios extractor tool. Thank you. RAZER-1.01 BIOS.zip

How are you able to tell? GPUZ says 80.06.44.00.ff but its unable to download it.

I love the 780 modded vbios. I have both my msi gt60s running smoothly without any throttling! I do have a quick question. I just picked up a razer blade 2013 model. I was wondering if the Dell 765m 14in AW will work with this system? Thank you in advanced.

Thank you for your response Mr. Fox! I have a MSI GT60 2OD with a 4800mq, the board supports XTU however I am at a loss on how to overclock the haswell chips. I will take your advice and make the changes and see what happens![h=1][/h]

Can this same advice be used for a 4800mq? Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk 2

Have you tried using nvidia inspector instead of afterburner? Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk 2

No it doesn't. A single 780m would be around 7500ish.

Svl7, does fan speed profiles still work with the modified vbios for the 780? I have been keeping my fan speed at 100 percent lately(gt60) has a turbo fan button. However I was doing some gaming and I noticed the fan RPM never changed.

Ya. Maybe slv7 can figure something out for us stuck with the gt60/70 haswell notebooks.

Yes, XTU for the processor. Only changes with that were 102.2485 reference clock and forcing the multipliers at 36/35/34/34. The 780 was clocked at 1060/3000 but for some reason that actual core clock was at 1040ish or so. Nvinspector was off by at least 15mhz. I'm not sure why but I found a couple people on the forum were having the same issue. I had to have it at +62.5mv. May have been able to go a little higher at that voltage but I was happy breaking 9k.

Finally got it! http://www.3dmark.com/3dm11/7012018 Mission accomplished lol.

Ya I don't want to shove more power to this card so I think I'll mess around with the reference clock a little and see if I can squeeze some more MHz out if the processor. Surely I can get another 35-40 points out of it. I simply just want to break into the P9k and I be satisfied... I think. Power doesn't seem to be too much of an issue yet. According to the kill-a-watt meter the nb is drawing 155ish and peaked one time at 170 but still not enough for MSI's dumb hybrid mode to kick on. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk 2

Depends what you set the voltage at. Higher = more heat = less life. I personally wouldn't worry about it too much depending on what your temps are at. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk 2

Yes I am using a slv7 vbios. I've been logging with gpuz and it doesn't seem to down clock however anything over 1020 I have to up the core clock 5mhz more. For example if I want 1030 I would have to use inspector to clock it at 1035. As of my latest benchmark run I'm at 8934 with a graphics score of 9205. So close :/ Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk 2

What are you overclocked to for the people that are getting P9k in 3Dmark11? I for some reason can not get 9k. The highest I have been able to achieve is P8756 with the card clocked at 1020/3000 using the latest beta nvidia drivers I'm seeing a lot of machines breaking into the 9k mark with less clocks. Is there something I am missing here? CPU is a 4900MQ with setting the multipliers as high as it allows me to.

Damn, I have the haswell NB. The NOS feature can't even compete with a bigger PSU. I wonder if there is a way to disable it? Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk 2

I have been doing a little research on upgrading the power brick to something along the lines of a 220 watt or more. However I do have a few questions. Is the max power draw BIOS/Firmware limited? From my research some are saying that upgrading to something bigger than the 180watt is pointless because its firmware locked at 180watt max power draw. What unit is everyone getting? I saw the units from dell but i see that the amps are different. Is that ok? Should I get the 240watt or the 330watt? Would I need to find adapters to fit the plug in on the laptop? Thank you guys!

What is the voltage at? I have mine at 1020/3000 but I had to give it some more power. If you have that at stock voltage then you sir have a nice card! Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk 2

Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk 2 Ya GPU score is in the 9s. Don't know the exact number off hand my notes are on my desk. You are correct for the vbios flash. There is a guide on how to correctly make the bootable flash drive which IMO is the hardest part of the process lol. Always make a backup of your stock vbios. As for the PSU I do believe youre correct on it being a slim brick. I think I may just go ahead and order one and do some testing. I hope that us MSI users can actually utilize the extra wattage though. I can't find a definitive answer if the wattage is BIOS locked. Svl7, I appreciate everything you are doing for the community!

Flashing is easy! There is a great guide on here that will help you and you can always make a backup of your stock vbios. I think i may try the dell PSU however i was concerned thst the msi bios is locked to only utilize the 180 watt PSU because of the "hybrid" feature. BTW if you haven't pasted with IC diamond you might want to do that. Load temps are almost down 7-10c on GPU and CPU. I have always been an AS3-5 person too. I'm at P8700 right now can't seem to get into the 9s having stablitiy issues. Seems like the last test on 3dmark11 keeps crashing. 1020 core clock 1500(3000 combined) mem clock +37.5mv.

Is anyone having problems forcing pstates with the 780m? I am using nvidia inspector but the cards clocks keep changing? I have a MSI GT60 with the 780m flashed with the 780m unlocked BIOS. I have tried multiple different commands -forcepstate:0,0 -forcepstate:0,2 -forcepstate:0,0 (This one does lock the card from changing pstates however the card never goes over 324mhz? I think I'm an idiot. Maybe I'm missing something? Any advice? Thanks.
