    If you use anythingelse between 64 and 128 you have a very ong boot time (2 to 4 min) and you have pcie lane error and next you laptop turn off.

    On 1.07.27 right? That won't happen in 1.07.26 or it will?
    Are you working on a fix with @dsanke ?

    Hello everyone,

    Here are my results concerning my upgrade, basic I use a 1080 gtx to rtx 2080. To speak first of the brand that sold me this card for the sum of 1168 Euros. The package was super clean. However, I noticed the heatsink that was again used and twisted.
    I took some pictures for you!

    For performances the gain and there !!! however I am quite mixed because the shadow performance of Tomb Raider Ultra RTX on I am at 40 FPS I put you a Screenshot.

    The positive:

    The pc is initiated faster because the RTX has a Vbios UEFI
    The card consumes less (150W)
    The heatsink is much more efficient with the i9 9900k
    The bug when the screen turn off is fixed

    The bugs:

    The g-sync does not work


    For the 128GB compatible bios try with this one.

    Just to finish up my efforts. 9700K working nicely in the P750DM3G - need to stress it a little more, but the thermals aren't as bad as feared and I have still to really tune things up. Pin masking was only lightly annoying.

    Thanks to everyone involved.

    Is that the one with a keyboard that actually works? I suppose you could tweak the firmware to stop it gimping itself in windows.

    Reading the Excel suggests that the 1.07.26 BIOS may restore G-sync with 9700K and 10th series card. Have you any experience with this?

    P750DM3G/1060 with 3000A firmware applied. Currently, the gsync feature is missing - it was there with the 1.06 BIOS (now 1.05.11) and the 6700K in the socket before

    With 1.07.26 and 1.07.27 you'll get it back if the combo cpu/LCD supports it. Might need a 8th gen or 9 for it to work again. My LCD is a AUO B173HAN03.1 with 144hz and working g-sync. Which one do you have? Can see the model with hwinfo

    I used the 1.07.xx BIOS from the initial archive in this thread; works beautifully to get g-sync back with the 9700K. Thanks for the advice. I am always nervous about the firmware update so this was a huge relief. Thanks again.

    Can anyone confirm that with this BIOS a 9900KS works in a P775-DM3?
    I flashed the firmware (and also the GPU vBIOS) successfully, and the laptop is working flawlessly with the 6700K I was using before.
    When I plug in the 9900KS with the pin mod, the screen stays black and the laptop shuts itself down after about 1 min.
    When I put the 6700K back in, it works again.
    Unfortunately, right now I lack a compatible mainboard to test the 9900KS. It is brand new and broken CPUs are extremely rare in my experience bu who knows.
    I'll pass by a friend to test the CPU there in the next days, and will also test another 9-series CPU in the laptop.
    Is there something I could do wrong or am I missing something? Any idea is appreciated.
    In any case thx a lot for the BIOS and instructions! Flashing worked flawlessly. It's great to have people out there helping the community.

    Are you sure that the pin mods are right? There is another bios however that one is not compatible backwards, so if you do not have programmer do not flash in it, as you cannot go back if the KS does not work.

    Thx for the reply. I don't know if I miss something, but in the Excel I do not see any particular CPU models. I am using the P7xxDMx.rom, which should be compatible to 9th series coffee-lake refresh CPUs, if I understand correctly.
    In the meantime, I have verified that the 9900KS works correctly in a Z370 desktop board.
    And, I have tried a 9600 CPU with the pin mod in the laptop, which worked well.

    I did the pin mod on the 9900KS 3 times from scratch, so I am quite sure it is done correctly. I also took some pictures and magnified them to verify it, and it was also working on the 9600.

    So my conclusion is that the BIOS works for the 9600 but not for the 9900KS. I have seen some posts stating that the 9900K works. Perhaps it works only for 9900K but not for 9900KS?

    Are we talking about the excel same sheet? I am looking to the one included in the "BIOS Clevo ALL 9th.zip", and it lists bios file, compatible clevo models, and whether it is compatible to 6/7 gen CPUs. Is there another list which particular 9th gen CPUs are supported?

    Hi,
    I have realized an issue which might comes from bios. My audio headphone does not work with realtek driver. Speaker works flawlessly, however if I plug in the headphone, windows realtek driver detects but the sound still comes from the speaker. I have wipe down all the dirver and use the microsoft high definition audio, not all works fine. What could be the issue? THX
