*** Official Clevo P67xRP6-G/P67xRS-G (Sager NP8172/8173) Owner's Lounge ***

Been here six years. Now I get to start one of these. Maybe next time I'll poach the top end model thread before Phoenix does.

Clevo spec pages:
P670RP6-G
P670RS-G

Here's a picture for good posterity:


Discuss! All you P67xRx-G owners out there! OPEN THE FLOODGATES!

Driver downloads:
Windows 7 (not found yet)
Windows 8.1 (not found yet)
Windows 10

Anything else? We'll figure that out later.

 

Reserved for some as-of-yet-undiscovered reason or other

 

Reserved this one honestly because I just want to. It feels good to reserve posts =D.

 

hello D2 Ultima

just for you to know, P670 owners are already discussing everything about this model in this other thread

http://forum.notebookreview.com/thr...sager-np8153-s-np8152-s-owners-lounge.795090/

I also own the model in question!!

 

Yes, I believed that would be the case. I still figured we should have one for it, though. Though slight, there are a couple differences between them that some people tend to get confused about =D

 

of course .. my intention was just to inform you because I thought that, judging on the title of the post i linked, maybe you din't know we where discussing about the 17" too ...

BTW have you bought it already?

 

Ah yeah. I know, I've been around NBR for a while. People hijack threads all the time, it's like a rite of passage =D

And no, I have not. IF I were to get a new laptop, it'd most definitely be a P870DM3. With the 120Hz screen. Mmm.

Fun fact, the 120Hz panel should be plug & play in these models here. May need a Prema mod to get Gsync working if you get a Gsync panel, but it should most certainly work. I want to see somebody actually do the mod. THEN I want to convince HIDevolution to offer it "unofficially" if people know where to ask

 

120hz Panel with Gsync is still not-officially.

49dB at normal (gaming) load, according to NBC.com.

Bummer.

 

first time turning on my new p670rp and it says windows couldnt load correctly, what can i do?

 

I had the P670 with 1060 a week before returning it due to size. It is quieter than the 1070 version of P561 which has identical cooling like P670. If noise is an issue, the P670 with 1060 is fine in my book

 

Possible ETA?

 

Next year, maybe Christmas this year.

I hope it's sooner. Clevo models generally don't last particularly long before a refresh shows up. I'd like it to be early in its life cycle =D.

 

Hi everyone,

Just upgraded just a few weeks ago to a new Clevo (ProStar) P670RS-G 17.3" with:

i7 6700HQ (2.6GHz)
8GB DDR4 2400 MHz RAM stock + additional 32GB DDR 2400 MHz RAM (40GB RAM total)
1TB SATA + 256GB OCZ RD400 (M.2 NVMe SSD)
GTX 1070

I do sit my laptop on a fan but since the main vents are on the back of the laptop, the fan probably only makes a minor difference. I might overclock eventually, but just seeing how others are doing with GPU temps if available, since mine seems to run ice cold, no higher than 65C when running DOOM maxed out.

 

What are the temps without the extra fan?

 

I will do a run tonight just to see.

 

Cool, thanks. And that's with stock paste?

 

Yes.

 

Ok so I was running DOOM but my temps were "low," even at maxed settings I was barely pushing the GPU core and thus wanted to see if I could get it "hotter." Thus I downloaded 3DMark, which is a very processing-heavy, and got this:



If anybody can recommend another app/benchmark/game that can push the CPU/GPU, let me know because this really seems low.

 

Heaven benchmark, AIDA extreme, prime95. You can compare with this: http://forum.notebookreview.com/thr...-s-owners-lounge.795090/page-19#post-10325749

 

OK will do this later. A quick mention, I did get for Fire Strike
11 582

 

Here are some more:

 

Very nice scores. Push it over 2100 see how she fares

 

Thanks for that! Could you also try prime95 for the cpu if possible?

 

CPU is 3.5ghz. So why are your values lower? Are you downclocking?
Why does it say your max GPU clock is 608 Mhz?
Why are you only graphing the CPU during the "cpu only" and not including the gaming test?

As far as I know, these synthetic gaming benchmarks overemphasize average performance at the cost of <5% and <1% [of the time] FPS numbers.

 

That looks pretty great honestly. Glad to see those temps holding. You must have a really good heatsink!

Are you using max fans or auto fans?

CPU is 3.1GHz 4-core load. 3.5GHz only happens if a single core is stressed. The 6700HQ cannot be downclocked by adjusting turbo bins; it's either turbo on, or turbo off (2.5GHz flat).

Outdated GPU monitoring software.

 

GPU shows 608 Mhz in idle.
I did Fire Strike, Time Spy and 3DMark 2011 - 12531, 5027 and 15616 respectively (CPU and GPU stock).

 

So CCC - GPU Overclock is outdated also?

 

If you're talking about the Clevo Control Center... they don't make good software lol. It's their most glaring issue, and why we need Prema to fix their BIOSes.

 

Maybe not good, but GPU clocks shows correctly

I am basically doing these on request, I have rarely done benchmarking so I was not ready to do anything fancy, I can run again with other monitoring software. I also have all the Clevo drivers/software installed, including the Control Center, so that is possibly impacting these if at all, I was also running these with Chrome open so I could know what benchmarks to run. Auto fans. Will mess around with more testing later.

 

The gpu mhz are a problem with the program. If the gpu had 608mhz maximum, he would never have those results.

 

So I decided to download and install ALL the SAGER drivers (Intel, sound, X-Fi, Control Center, everything) and while Fire Strike only went up to 11762, my Time Spy exploded to 5062 (all stock settings, default nVidia 3D settings EXCEPT G-SYNC off, since I am running on external monitors). Will try 3DMark 2011 later.

USE THE SAGER APPS AND DRIVERS, NOT CLEVO!

 

So i recently got the p670rp6 SAGER, and started to play rome 2 total war, and CPU/GPU reaches 85-90 degrees... I bught form XOTIC PC ... i dont know this is normal but fans gets pretty loudy

 

Current EC goes from silent to blaring is all some of us have flashed xmg ec to fix it until its fully released. Your temps are a far cry from mine though

Sent from my ZTE A2017U

 

What are your idle temps? Mine are ~40C for GPU and CPU.

 

actually i had problems.with the drivers... i fixed and now my temps playing are around 60-75 degrees and idle near 40-45... i think thats pretty normal but fan get like 40-45dB wich is loud

 

Yep, what I get too, drivers make the difference!!!

 

Yeah! but how loud gets your laptop at load?

 

With max fans on it is kind of noisy, yes, but it rarely gets that hot unless you are benchmarking to full load, during games it is not bad. I wear headphones so I don't notice it. When idle I can't even hear anything.

 

Bruh what kind of drivers drops 15-30c from a video card and processor under load O_O

 

Actually since Gsync is broken on latest NVIDIA drivers the fact that you install working G-SYNC drivers will lower your GPU temps in some games since it wont do more than 60 or 75 fps (depends on system).
Also a broken Control Center could cause fan profile problems, not commn though.
That's all i can think of

 

Oh, so it's nVidia's fault. Seems legit. They're always breaking something. I legit refuse to open GFE because it'll update and I'll get that stupid overlay that people can't exactly turn off that screws with your system.

 

So some P650 owners have an issue with the screen where alternating columns of pixels are not lit equally brightly creating "stripes" that are distracting, especially in blue and orange colors. Anyone with a P670 have the same issue? I am a little worried, since other issues with the laptop seem to be software-related and will eventually be fixed, while this may be hardware?

 

I would advise such owners to call their support numbers if they see screen banding.

 

I haven't seen it, I did get some stuck pixels unfortunately but not a deal breaker.

 

Guys do you know why my GPU cant reach 95+% GPU usage? , because playing Battlefield 4 on ultra i only reach 60% with an average of 65 FPS on ULTRA (i have an p670rp6 GTX 1060)

 

Hi everyone, been years since I posted.

I wanted to take apart my P670RS-G and remove the stock ram from under the keyboard, so while i was in there, I figured I would grab a copy of the BIOS straight off of the BIOS chip. It's been a number of years since I tooled around with such things... Since my Alienware M18x.

I wrote a guide way back when on how to go about dumping a UEFI BIOS, modding registers, unhiding forms, decoding IFR, etc... it's actually posted here on this forum, if I recall

I would like to release my modified BIOS, however, I did read that it is frowned upon due to Prema's BIOS being the defacto release. I don't want to step on anyone's toes. But I was able to mod it easily enough, without fear of bricking my laptop due to having an EEPROM programmer I don't know who I'd have to talk to, to get permission to post it.

If anyone is interested in my BIOS dump, I can post it. Do note that if you were to flash it directly however, it would overwrite all your BIOS settings, including cpu oc, ram oc, hdd boot drive etc. with mine. Nothing that couldn't be cleared with a reset, though...

 

Sounds like some other kind of bottleneck, probably somehow your CPU. Or if you've only got a single stick of RAM, that might be it too.
