Curtis_AW17R5 Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 (edited) http://www.3dmark.com/3dm/15859939? Finally I installed this driver (375.70) and the fire strike even lower than before. Wanna know what I missed. Gaming is Fine, and temperature has dropped down, the only problem is I don't see any performence improvement. and I already flashed prema's v2.

While you may -- and should -- customize the installation of the Nvidia driver so that only the bits that you require are installed, there is no option to disable the Telemetry components from being installed. These do get installed even if you only install the graphics driver itself in the custom installation dialog. @J95 At first they got with GFE 3.x and now they are being packed with the sole driver package as well. Sigh !! first Windows10 and now nGreedia as well... Edited November 7, 2016 by Ashtrix 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check your temps & check this thread at NBR too. 12 hours ago, tomhalls2rallye said: would your recommend the same bios for the 970m, have same laptop alienware 17x r4 running 3842qm processor https://biosmods.wordpress.com/gtx9/ Use Either of them and to Flash use the Premamod zip and copypasta or have a look at those commands from the batch files and flash them by going to Devicemngr and disabling them and after flash enable them, No need for the BIOS Legacy Flashing, Maxwell can be flashed from the Windows.

Install this driver in PEG mode) For 120Hz I presume, No need to use the IGFX switch, Just go to the Devicemngr and disable the card, then flash and reboot and then Install the INF modded driver from this thread, J95 always ! Also make sure to use DDU to uninstall properly, I use this everytime when I need to update or rollback or clean OS installations. I'll also leave this here for all the Alienware 17 Owners who want to upgrade to a Maxwell GPU, Also this post too as a safety precaution for the MSI-AB and EVGA PX for all LVDS machines (60Hz) Also check NBR for these similar threads (375.86 & 375.76 ) to get most out of your GPU without any perf loss. For now stable one seems to be 373.06, I personally use 369.05 for now since I don't have newer games than DOOM but the BF1, Mirrors Edge Catalyst might need new Drivers like the 375.76..\ Hope this clears out, Best of Luck.
