AstralSparks Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 I notice overclock the core doesnt change anything when I'm not using AC adapter,although your GPU says the right number after you OC'ed. is it just me or..? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eats7 Posted December 10, 2013 Author Share Posted December 10, 2013 what number does it say? Ive noticed in msi afterburner and evga precision, it reports the wrong clocks (405mhz) no matter what. however in hwinfo and nvidia inspector it reports the right core clock. i think it's a bug between the driver and msi/evga apps.

nosammai Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 Yeah, after I updated to the latest drivers Afterburner shows the wrong clocks. I've had to use HwInfo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

h0m3g33 Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 So it seems that I've gotten everything working, but nvidia inspector still isn't letting me edit the temperature throttle, other then that it seems like everything is working.

rhoryno Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 So this will allow me to get rid of the 67c downclock on my gpu? !? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhoryno Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Everything is working fine except trying to change the temperature throttle on nvidia inspector, apart from that a very nice job and my first flash, phew. My fan seems to be working a lot more efficiently, honestly can't say how much this has helped me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jophisbird Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 The A10 had 950MHz core / 1400MHzThe A13 Unlocked Bios: 835MHZ core / 1000MHzNVIDIA GeForce GT 650M video card benchmark result - Intel Core i7-3610QM Processor,Alienware M14xR2so this is an underclock?

jophisbird Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 THANK YOU! I can't say how much this helped. I was getting TWENTY fps on League of Legends, where I should have been getting wayyy over 60. Even at 1080p output maxed, it's not a demanding game! Now with a few tweaks of this, and the backdated driver, I'm at over 90-100. I bought the subscription to download it, and worth every penny. Thanks again.Best regards,Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eats7 Posted February 25, 2014 Author Share Posted February 25, 2014 so this is an underclock?no. the A10 was actually overclocked in the vbios by svl7. with a13, he just left it at stock clocks. you can still overclock a13 yourself.

itsmattgw Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Has anyone noticed any issues with their hardware? Meaning hardware damage with overclocking their m14x r2?There's a thread here http://forum.techinferno.com/alienware-m14x-aw-14/2061-%5Bm14x-r2%5D-unlocked-bios-versions.html where people were overclocking this sytem a long time ago, might be better to ask there since they've had time to test it. But you can download afterburner which will show your temps and the general rule is that as long as your temps don't go too high then you're not doing damage to your system.

itsmattgw Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 I've updated my bios to A13 in order to prepare to install this unlock...did you guys notice your fan running more after updating? It used to sit silent when I was surfing the web and now it's on all the time, it's annoying enough to want to go back to a08 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macdude Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 I have to agree with itsmattgw. My fan seems to always be blowing and I'm worried this will eventually burn the fan out. Load defaults in bios still doesn't seem to stop the fan from continuing to blow constantly. I've tried disabling turbo mode and intel speed step to see if this would make any difference, but still the same results. Anyone else noticing this issue? I'm running both Windows 8.1 pro and Mavericks (10.9.1). When I was on A03 unlock bios I didn't run into this issue. Any advise or feed back would be much appreciated.

I'm running both Windows 8.1 pro and Mavericks (10.9.1). When I was on A03 unlock bios I didn't run into this issue. Any advise or feed back would be much appreciated.I tried downgrading my bios to ao8, same thing. Tomorrow I'm going to put some Arctic Silver 5 paste on my cpu and graphics gpu and see if that helps, I'll update when I see the results. In the meantime I've found a great workaround with this program here :Unofficial AW fan control - Alienware User Supportit lets you set the temperature thresholds for when the fans come on. I've found that I can tone my fan speeds down to 1500 rpm and it's almost completely silent but at the same time keeps my temperatures hovering below 55. You can set all the thresholds so once it reaches 55 it will automatically go to whatever RPMS you want it to in order to cool it back down. Definitely worth the download Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Kidd Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 This is the part i failed4.) Then you are going to want to follow the instructions by svl7 (the second method, DOS flashing) and grab the rest of the files here: [M18x R2] - 'unlocked' BIOS versions2 Weeks i am trying to flash that vbios- I got an usb key - I run HP exe, than i created the usb bootable with the files Win98- I copie and past all files on the roofThen i reboot It's a black screen with :Microsoft Windows 98 andC:\>What i am suppose to do nowPlease help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eats7 Posted March 6, 2014 Author Share Posted March 6, 2014 Restart the system and boot from your USB stick. Run prr.exe, then flash the bios by executing the flash.bat file. Wait until the tool completes the flash. If the verification is okay, reboot, else flash again..Go to the bios, load the default settings and reboot. Done.when you see C:\>...just type prr.exe then enterthen type flash.bat and then enter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
