  1. You will need to set up starting Throttlestop in Windows Task Scheduler, I done it this way and it’s working alright since then. There’s a guide how to do it https://www.repairwin.com/how-to-start-throttlestop-at-windows-startup/ Maybe ur laptop have also locked capabilities of undervolting and whatever settings u apply don’t take any effect, it was definitely case with my laptop ( Gigabyte G5-KC) , I had to unlock it separately and after that the settings properly kicked in. If u satisfied with the results now then sounds like it’s fixed haha
  2. No it’s not, DDU makes sure all old drivers are uninstalled from all directories. If you do new install of drivers it may left some old and corrupted files. DDU is best option and always my first step in any troubleshooting
  3. I would try DDU first, maybe driver is corrupted so fresh install may work.
  4. Yeah well actually I have plenty of time at work for playing ( operating nickel plating line for silicone wafers ) every 50 mins I’m loading something on the line which takes me maxs 5 min so for rest of the time I sit and relax.
  5. Yes that’s what I was looking for and I found it finally https://www.tindie.com/products/dekuNukem/daytripper-hide-my-windows-laser-tripwire/ Not funny images but I’m playing games (privileges of working by myself) but sometimes people come to see, no reason they need to know I’m playing during work hrs haha
  6. Yes exactly, there’s some device which switch to desktop when someone is approaching but I can’t remember how it’s called, I’ve spend last two hrs trying to find it
  7. Hi all Does anyone know what’s the name of this wireless usb device which activates desktop when someone walks close to you? I need one and don’t remember what was the name of it
  8. Did you tried moving the fans to the inside of the case (other side of that front frame bracket) so they are not so close to the front panel ?
  9. Omg seriously??? I never knew that ……
  10. Get rid of the shroud with fans, use cable ties to mount case fans to the gpu heatsink… problem solved hahaha But to be honest with you this works, I’ve done it before and it cools gpu even better that og fans
  11. Before what? Did you changed anything? New drivers, new bios, anything?
  12. What do you mean by that? What else do you need in that budget?
  13. I understand basic concept why ppl doing it, I’ve done it before as well, I was asking OP why he want to do it, is his temps high? I have Gigabyte laptop atm, temps are good under the load so I don’t see any point in undervolting Not sure why they don’t, is it type of idot proofing measure just in case the ppl strat playing with the settings they not supposed to play with, and than reporting the laptop broke? Maybe. If that’s the case they could easily release bios just for enthusiasts which know what they doing.
  14. I had gtx 970 from this brand back in the days, worst cooling I ever had on the card, the fans didn’t managed to keep the card cool at all. I had to rip the shroud off and install normal 120mm fans. Well you basically get what you pay for, more you manage to invest the better product you get (in most cases)
