    What other ways do I have to increase my graphics performance? Powerlimit can apparently not be turned up so easily and voltage increase I would then also bring quite little I suspect? 74 degrees at only 2200 rpm... there would be so much reserve for more power. What would be the score and by what method in range?

    GT73VR with 1070

    I used Firestrike Ultra stress test for 20 loops
    RPM were at 2200

    I mean a 1070 on 125W is already pretty powerful in itself. Only way increasing power limit is by using the Pascal TDP Editor.

    I think he is referring to the tdp limit of the motherboard itself. If I am not wrong, the NOS power limit started in the latest gt60/70 series is still present in the current gt series... And there is not easy way to disable it as fas as I know.

    No he's talking about the graphics card TDP limit. Which is 115 watts (it can burst to 125W).
    The motherboard power limit can be changed. If you're talking about the 230W power limit that is set when a GTX 1070 is installed (bypassing 230W will cause CPU throttling, overriding Bios power limits), that can be avoided by setting the power ID to the GTX 1080 ID in RW Everything, allowing 330W. This will also stop "NOS" from draining the battery below 240W of system power draw (effectively disabling NOS).

    NOS cannot be disabled if you exceed 240W of power draw, without removing the battery and then doing a few other things (just removing the battery by itself will limit total system power to 160W or 180W)

    The graphics card can be increased up to 200W TDP successfully. Doing so requires the Pascal Bios Editor, changing the power ID in RW Everything to GTX 1080 (330W) and then buying the 330W power supply (since the 230W PSU will trip once you exceed 270W from the wall).
