    [SOLVED] Where can I get replacement part for an Asus Rog G531GT (specifically one of the WiFi antennas) ?

    While cleaning my laptop, an MHF4 Connector popped off the cable attached to a wifi antenna. Since then My network speeds have dropped about 30%. Ive been looking EVERYWHERE for a replacement antenna but I cant find one for the life of me. Contacted Asus and they say they can't help since they...

    Question Trying to overclock my Laptop GPU. GPU Tweak 3 Settings wont apply, and MSI Afterburner wont OC Scan

    ya just tried heaven, it seems to work better for testing since it doesnt throttle it immediately, although it still throttles it pretty quick. its the damn TDP limit otherwise i would be able to get a good 70% clock boost I managed to mod My Vbios, however I havent tested it yet. It appears...

    Question Trying to overclock my Laptop GPU. GPU Tweak 3 Settings wont apply, and MSI Afterburner wont OC Scan

    So I determined what I really need is to decrease my Voltages. and MSI Afterburner doesnt let me set anything below 0.700 MV but my Gpu is instantly hitting its TDP whenever I do anything I need a Low power draw Gpu benchmark with Error checking. I was using OCCT But I think thats whats causing...

    Question Trying to overclock my Laptop GPU. GPU Tweak 3 Settings wont apply, and MSI Afterburner wont OC Scan

    Lol, Normally I would agree except its temps are only 55c at 2010mhz core. Also Im having another issue, While OC Scanner works. The resulting overclock seems to immediately hit an 'Limiting Policies' so it doesnt even hit the gpu Boost block speed Let alone the Overclocked setting. (This is...

    Question Trying to overclock my Laptop GPU. GPU Tweak 3 Settings wont apply, and MSI Afterburner wont OC Scan

    I just started working on overclocking my laptops GPU its an nvidia geforce 1650. I used both MSI Afterburner and GPU Tweak 3. Unfortuneately MSI Afterburners OC Scanner doesnt work. GPU Tweak 3's Does However it doesnt seem to apply the clocks properly afterwords, It overclocks by about 50%...

    [SOLVED] Is prime95 still the best burnin tool? (Testing conductonaut liquid metal)

    I Redid the liquid metal on my cpu and temps dropped 10c, My temps are at 71c now prime95. However Its not sticking correctly to the copper... keeps oxidizing, not sure if there's I can do about it. Although I will post the adhering question in the hardware/overclock forum just thought id...

    [SOLVED] Is prime95 still the best burnin tool? (Testing conductonaut liquid metal)

    Testing out my conductonaut thermal paste. It seems to be a-lot more unstable at lower temps (Like im consistantly jumping all over between 45c and 50c but when it gets hot it seems to stabled out). However my hottest temp is 81c under prime95 after running for about 10 minutes, (this is on...

    Could someone with a Intel Core i9-9980HK tell me what their Power Draw is when fully turbo vs base clock?

    ... That really doesn't help me. I need to know what its power usage is under full load. How am I supposed to know if my cooling setup is enough to handle the i9-9980HK without some actual data on it? I don't want to upgrade CPU's then find out that my performance is gonna tank because I cant...

    Could someone with a Intel Core i9-9980HK tell me what their Power Draw is when fully turbo vs base clock?

    Im just trying to know learn what the actual TDP is of a Intel Core i9-9980HK under full turbo and load. So I can determine what modifications I will need to make if any to swap my cpu's

    [SOLVED] Laptop Socket 1440 FCBGA, would they all have the same bga layout?

    Lol true, that would be absolute worst case scenario. So long as the bga soldering goes fine though, I don't think that will be an issue

    Could someone with a Intel Core i9-9980HK tell me what their Power Draw is when fully turbo vs base clock?

    Laptop is an Asus Rog G531GT. If the cooling isnt enough, I got a guy who can add more heatpipes.

    Question What do I need to safely use Liquid Metal as thermal paste (Grizzly Conductonaut)

    Yes same laptop, Regardless the recent heatwaves are making my laptop run too hot, due to the ambient temperature increase. Its probably just gonna get worse as the years go on, so thought I might look into solutions now rather then wait until I can cook an egg on my cpu. Aside from that my...

    [SOLVED] Laptop Socket 1440 FCBGA, would they all have the same bga layout?

    Worst comes to worst I just put the old cpu back on. This is more so a learning experience for me, if it works I get a faster computer if it fails, I will have learned a decent amount.

    Could someone with a Intel Core i9-9980HK tell me what their Power Draw is when fully turbo vs base clock?

    I need to know what the actual power draw is on the Intel Core i9-9980HK. Preferably as read by ThrottleStop. I am not looking for the TDP since that appears to be WAY off on my laptop, which claims to be 45watt but under full load throttlestop says i havent gone past 31.0w average of about...

    Question What do I need to safely use Liquid Metal as thermal paste (Grizzly Conductonaut)

    Im planning to switch cpu's to a Intel Core i9-9980HK, So The more cooling the better. Although I need to find out what the actual real world power draw is before I can determine if Liquid metal is enough to keep the temps where I want them, or if I will have to pay to get some more heat pipes...
