ok so if it does work lets say. is this supposed to make it to where i can screw around with my voltages and also mainly will it make it so my ram will be unlocked to turn up to 3200 mhz like its advertised to be running at in the first place?? im serioulsy so shocked with gigabyte on this i really dont understand how they can just do something like this i have even sent a ticket into their support website and havent heard anthing back in days, i mean isnt that false advertising or somthing? because there is littereally no way to turn the ram speed up no matter what with how the laptop sits currently. and they can seriously expect everyone to do what im trying to do just to be able to do what should already be avaailable to do… its quite ridiculous in my mind idk…
RAM - yes. Voltages - partially, there are primarily voltage adjustments for CPU.
Many many portables are affected by this problem. I know this because I do mods. Draw your own conclusion.
ok so i did waht it told me to do but now what do i do im kind of lost
i wish that we could live chat somehow haha… sorry im so helpless with this stuff.
i just did the second step with the flash drive plugged in that i ran the first step with what do i do with this newly created thing on the drive? do i boot into it now?
Yes. When created, boot from it. Everything as it was told.
hey so i loaded into that and i am confusd on waht im supposed to do after that it wants me to type a command or somthing and i dont know what i need to type. please help hahah im so sorry i suck at this
Nice!
As it is stated in the dialog of the script program you need to type exactly the next command(without quotes): “setup_var_cv PchSetup 0x1C 0x1 0x0”.
After that you can reboot and proceed to unlocking.
Please, note that it may require to execute an additional command provided that error 167 will still pop-up: “setup_var_cv PchSetup 0x683 0x1 0x0”. There was only one capture when the script worked after the first command.
When in another, it was not enough.
Things vary depending on the model.
so i have unlocked my bios and OMG there are so many different settings its unreal like how do i navigate to where i turn my ram speed up i cannot find it anywhere i swear. is there like a didfferent method of doing it in this bios? i have the FB09 one
It took you a lot of time to get in there, thus I could improve the script with the UEFI command-line app when I have time.
Use unlocked features with caution that some are sensetive. I recommend configuring voltages via utilities for Windows, but it’s better not to touch them at all.
It supposed to work next way, but I don’t know how users manage turning 3200MHz on.
Chipset - System Agent Configuration - Disable the SA GV;
Chipset - System Agent Configuration - Set the gear ratio to 1.
ok i did that and it blew my computer up somehow and went to the repair windows screen over and over until it eventually just went into windows finally. idk if you have seen the bios of what im running unlocked but its the Fb09 version and its super full of diffrernt settings and i cannot figure out how to even turn my ram speeed to 3200 mhz its so frustrating… please help somenone haha
Maybe configuring XMP (Extreme Memory Profile) will do the trick?
This setting should be somewhere in the memory menu. Try to set XMP1, check the result, then set XMP2 if needed.
crazy as this seems there literally isnt a setting called that and i already know thats the usual name of the setting that does that with the ram cuz ive had a desktop with a gigabyte board in it and thats exactly what i set the memory profile to was xmp2 or extreme or something like that either way it was called xmp but not in this bio there isnt anything in that whole bios that says anything close to xmp and there is a lot of settings to mess with so many that i almost had to recover my laptop because i changed something that screwed everything up for a min until i found a work around to revert it back to where i could see my screen again… i was just hoping that you had screwed around in the same bios setup that i have and need help with to be able to tell me because its super confusing and nothing is familiar to me at all in it
In Overclocking Performance menu - Memory? No?
You’ll get worse latency results with 3200MHz. But anyway, just try it.
In OverClocking Performance Menu → OverClocking Feature → Enable.
Done! Your memory works now at 3200.
im telling you i have looked and there is no xmp and the overclocking feature is enabled and still the memory sits at teh same 2666 so its whatever thanks for trying eveyrone
Well, let’s check another options.
Make sure you have disabled CFG Lock and Overclocking Lock(it needs for cpu undervolting and saving XMP settings). Power & Performance → CPU - Power Management Control → CPU Lock Configuration → disable “CFG Lock” & “Overclocking Lock”.
So, next step… At “OverClocking Performance Menu” you have to enable “OverClocking Feature” and check it out “XTU Interface” → it doesn’t matter(cuz I don’t remember), but better to Enabled it.
After all steps above your stock memory should works at 3200.
Need some memory options → go to Chipset → System Agent (SA) Configuration → Memory Configuration → Memory(Overclocking Menu) >> Memory profile, where you can choose xmp profile or manually adjust memory settings.
Remember, enabling overclock mode makes the memory run at xmp2 (default) profile all the time, which is 3200CL22 if you have stock memory.
Good luck!
Hi there, I have an Aorus 15P laptop with the FB03 BIOS, and I am currently modifying its cooling system to handle up to 550 watts of heat dissipation. To achieve this, I’m using a copper vapor chamber, an aluminum water block, and brushless fans and pumps operating at 15,000 RPM. I have also found a charger that can deliver 450W of power to the laptop.
I’m currently assessing the viability of this project. I have a nearly complete schematic of the motherboard, and I’m evaluating whether the components can handle this much wattage. If they can’t, I plan to replace them with more powerful alternatives. At present, I’m unable to change the PL1, PL2, or TDP limits for the CPU or GPU, so I’m only able to draw 130 watts from the GPU and 70 watts from the CPU, which is far below the potential of this system.
I’m wondering if it is possible to modify the TDP limits and potentially overclock the CPU and/or GPU using a modded BIOS that you have created. Ideally, I would like to change these settings directly through the UEFI interface rather than modifying hexadecimal values to alter limits or hidden BIOS settings.
For reference, I have already disabled Secure Boot to install GRUB and Ubuntu.
I don’t think that you can control TDP limits for dedicated GPU with unlocked BIOS via UEFI interface, but I almost sure that you can do it for CPU and you can use turbo overclocking for every core (+400MHz) with nice cooling and power supply.
You needn’t to modify hexademical values every time when you search the best permarmance or use favorite values, just do it once and use Throttlestop or XTU for these things.
If you wanna do the same via UEFI interface and/or get more features you need to unlock BIOS and make modified BIOS(you should modify some hexadecimal values) and re-flash the original BIOS.
Just did and forgot.
Could you share please schematic of the motherboard for this laptop? Here or in pm.
I currently have the schematic for the Aorus 15P 2020 model, but I’m working with the Aorus 15P 2021, which has some slight differences. Some of the chips, like the one for the PEX power rail, aren’t the same between the two versions. I can double-check to confirm if the names match on the 2021 model.
As of now, I don’t have a modded BIOS, and I lack the expertise to create or implement one. While I have basic coding knowledge, it’s not enough to navigate or modify a BIOS at that level.
I understand that adjusting the shunt resistor could potentially increase the TDP of the GPU, but given that it’s a 3060, I doubt there would be much to gain as I’d likely hit the voltage limit anyway. However, it could be more beneficial for the CPU.
Here’s the link to the schematic: [Aorus 15P Schematic]
I will try to answer faster next time I didn’t think I would get answer that quickly.
