Yeah, I used tape at first, but for the last few I did for guild buddies, I just used a dot of silicon modified conformal coating with a small plastic tool. Literally dab, dab, done.

Makes me wonder if nail polish would work just as well, some use it to coat the SMTs when applying liquid metal to their CPUs

Nail polish is more likely to chip than the tape for this application.

Hi guys. Just a couple of days ago I decided to finally follow this thread and replace the 6700k in my P750DM2-G with 9900k. I did the GOP part, updating the vBIOS for my GTX 1060 from 0x30002 to 0x3000A. And then successfully flashed the BIOS with an USB stick. At the end of that I unplugged power chord, hard shutting off the laptop. I chose the P7xxDMx_RTX.rom instead of the P7xxDMx.rom for flashing because dsanke stated both in this thread somewhere and in the ReadMe excel file(Chinese version) that the RTX version supports both 10 and 20 series graphics card. Besides, when paired with 9th gen CPU or 20 series GPU, it supports G-sync that P7xxDMx.rom otherwise does not. I also plan on upgrading to a 2070 in the future. Those are reasons I chose this BIOS rom.
However, as I put my laptop together, it wouldn't start, just a black screen and endless boot loops. I took the battery out, disconnected the power and cmos battery, then let it sit for a while and connect everything again, power up while pressing Fn+ D but the same happens. I suddenly realised that the 6700k is not supported with RTX.rom according to the excel file, so I swapped the CPU to 9900k with the 2-pin mod, but the black screen and boot loops are still there. (technically, dsanke said the in the Chinese excel file that you can still run your laptop with 6/7th gen CPU and RTX.rom, only the frequency will be significantly lower than normal.) I disconnected power, battery, cmos battery multiple times and tried many times with no luck.
Now I'm out of clues. Is it just a bad flash? I now need to buy a spi programmer to flash the motherboad or is there anything I'm missing here? -
-
Or try to let it sit a couple of days without battery and cmos battery. And then let it run the bootloop for a while. It worked for me
-
Just ordered a cheap CH314A programmer kit. It'll take almost a week to arrive. In the meantime, I'll leave the laptop without battery or cmos battery and try it again in a couple days. Thanks!

I have km1-g. I have also tried with the IPS 144hz AUO 3.1 screen and the BTN...1.0 screen, both had gsync.

The GPU has to support G-sync originally and the BIOS needs to have been around when the system shipped with the exact panel fitted.

The g-sync certificates and enabling it.

Looking for advice:
Which is the safer bet.
Concerns:
-Seems about half and half with the flashing working with zero issues..
-Working out of time in the middle of no where, usually hours away from any real tech
-Never used/seen/owned a chip programmer
Setup:
hardware came with Gsync working before the current install of the 1080 gysnc BIOS and vBios (still no g-sync).
-P870KM1-G
-GTX 1080 SLI
-Prema's BIOS
Current Recommendations:
-RTX 2080 BIOS
-Reflash the 1080s vBIOS's.
Just get the programmer then play around further? or make a move. (having a brick even temporary would be bad as I work out of town mostly in random places for long periods in BFE)

Hello,
I have a p775dm3 with a 9900k I9 when my processor is fully loaded with the turbo boost the laptop suddenly stops. The problem came from the VR current limit in the default bios, it is over 1000 I to 627 to no longer crash. This setting corresponds to the judgment of the ICC MAX 157 A butterfly valve. It is acceptable for H24 / 7 without risk of damage to the motherboard.
Thanks you for you timeAttached Files:

Yes exactly. Sorry for my bad english.
Thanks you for you time -

BTW did you try and undo the undervolt you are doing? Most likely you cut the voltage too much in the offsets
And why do you put the cache ratio from 8 to 36? Put it 8 to 50. You are limiting the cpu to 3.6ghz by doing so..Last edited: Jul 3, 2019 -
I used throttle stop to illustrate my remarks the problem is at the level of VR CURRENT Limit because if I go above 627 the pc suddenly shuts down during a stress CPU. This setting is Safe for 24/7.
-
The shutdown of the pc could very well be an excessive undervolt. Try and delete throttlestop.ini and closing Throttlestop and undo the undervolt you have and test it.
-
The only way and adjust the level of VR CURRENT Limit.
I attached a screenshot of the shematic of v-core and we see well 120 A /1.2 V so 120 * 1.2 = 144W
The p775dm3 card can ensure the electrical current of the CPU?

Yes it can. Reduce the undervolt to -0.50mV or keep it stock with no undervolt and test. Did the laptop shutdown!? How are those temperatures!? Did you repaste it recently? Can be a case of excessive temperature and the motherboard shutdown to prevent damage to the cpu. Post a photo of your throttlestop main window and FIVR please

Okay, so I finally sat down to flash the BIOS. Removed all the drives from my P870DM-G, then put the BIOS file into the boot folder.
I created the backup file, but for some stupid reason, it won't flash the modded bios file.
I keep getting the error message:
Error 376: Image file "BIOS.bin" not found.
I've renamed the P870DM.bin to BIOS.bin, put it in every folder possible, but it still won't find the file. What am I doing wrong? The backup worked just fine. -

Thanks, just tried that, still getting the same error.
I have both the P870DM.bin and the same file renamed to BIOS.bin in my boot folder. -

In every single one of those, I thought one of those had to work.
So there's one in the USB root, one in the EFI folder and one in the boot folder. -
Of course the potential to introduce hard to troubleshoot problems and kill hardware is amplified from just using Throttlestop for on the fly changes, and it is a real slog testing one or two small settings changes at a time to see what (if anything) is different since info on what a lot of they do is lacking.
If the P775DM3 vcore power delivery is genuinely weaker and the black screen shut offs are caused on a hardware level by something like OCP there's not much you can do about it except set the bios and Throttlestop limits low enough so that it throttles insteadKKthebeast likes this. -

our Z170 systems were just never designed with 8 core cpus in mind, but rather quad coresstill, im reaching 4.6 ghz stable on all 16 threads for prolonged heavy loads, not bad for a machine designed for quadcores

Dial back the frequency. Lower and stable is better than not functioning. No matter what [insert your wrong here] you can NOT run these CPUs at even stock on our older laptops with out hardware modding
Not without some next level hacker engineering soldering on some Homebrew bs. then thermals (original "meltdown"?) (If that was the case [engineer] we would have jobs at Intel)
BUT! (And I know it sucks... ) Running the chip at the Highest your Mobo can support is hands down the best we can get from these. Does it suck to under utilize a chip? Absolutely. Even on my 270 I can't get stock performance with the 140A limit.
Stock 9900k in CB15 is around 1.7-2k,

Sorry for the overkill and limited and random sample size on the sources.
I suppose the point I was Aiming for (through the "word vomit" was, You have an awesome chip, that once dialed in, you should have awesome performance. (Even limited as we are with the power restrictions)
And a few years from now when we upgrade again we could always toss the chip in a what would then be an old 370 and overclock the heck out of it, give it to the kiddo for his lousy 4k gaming while we go full 8k (dreams)

Thanks, joluke and DaMafiaGamer, I finally was able to flash the bios (had to type in P870DM.rom). Didn't notice at first the file extension was .rom and not .bin.
Anyway, the process was successful, unplugged the power chord, put it back in just to see if it works and I was greeted by a nice black screen. What are the odds?
Looks like I'm going to have to buy an SPI flasher after all, hehehe.joluke likes this. -
Might work might not. Idk. It did for me good sir and I figured I should share in case it helps and saves $

Tried it, though I have no idea what Fn+D does.
I'll just leave the thing unplugged for a few hours with the BIOS battery pulled and see what happens.
Thanks!
This one is pretty "affordable" (considering I'm only ever going to use it once in my life):

Yes sir I hope it works to save you a buck!
On the KM1 I'm under the impression it's supposed reset the NVRAM I just kind of like on a MacBook? My friends will correct me if I'm wrong as I expect nothing less.
But then again I'm not a pro just an overzealous do-gooder sharing my version of reality.
