Need AW15 R2 VBIOS mod for 965M 2 GB
Incalculable replied to xxAssassin349's topic in Alienware M15x/AW 15
Well, it's been over a week since the legend known as "Klem" helped me unlock my VBIOS. I've been adjusting settings and testing - and playing - non stop. Holy over-clocking cow batman. From many different sites, over many years, we've all seen the potential of the GTX965M in Alienware laptops, and let me say: yes. They run cold - extremely cold - naturally. Overclocking them to insane levels is ENTIRELY FEASABLE!!! This model is bordering on being 8 years old. That's a million in PC years. Fact.... Mine now runs almost permanently at a temperature range of 50-60 degrees Celsius (from as base of 30-32, running games [stock to a max of 40-42]). No memory errors or crashes. It's nuts! Using nvidia inspector 1.9.8.7 I am currently overclocking: +500 Mhz Base Clock +500 Mhz Memory Clock +250 mV Voltage Offset. The real-world gains are enormous. For instance, Forza Horizon 5 - a game that "requires" a minimum 4Gb (the GTX965 has 2Gb...) runs in the busiest areas at a solid 30 fps @ custom ultrawide res of 2560x1097 (half-fat 4k!!) with low & night shadows, but more importantly a stable 50-60 outside areas. One example of many that have received insane - and safe bumps to their performance. Using Superposition Benchmarking, at base 1080p medium, I received a regular score of 3380. After the unlocking of the VBIOS and subsequent overclocking I was able to push that to 4890!! 30%+ extra FPS, and I'm not even close to overheating the bad-boy! Thankyou again Klem - you've made my 2023! -

Hi Klem, I too have this alienware 15 r2 with the GTX 965m and would LOVE to be able to overclock it. Any chance I could grab an unlocked bios please? Thanks in advance. Inc.
