Also, if you know, are there any m.2 heatsinks that will fit into the chassis? All the ones I've seen seem pretty thick. I'm assuming I'll need one anyway.

Hey, It's P775TM1

Hi spyder, just one last question, please. How many m.2 sod's is the Octane IV supposed to take? It shows the option for 2 in the upgrade options on pc specialist, but when installing it today I only saw one m.2 slot when I opened it up. Unless it's behind/hidden by my installed SSD or HDD?

Awesome, thank you spider, just about to order it :)

I've been looking at this: https://www.ebuyer.com/920681-adata-xpg-sx8200-pro-m-2-2tb-ssd-asx8200pnp-2tt-c And was just wondering if it will fit/work in my 17.3" OCTANE IV? Any help appreciated :) Cheers!

Hey all, So on my Octane IV, I had it set up fine using the 'CPU Memory OC' that comes with the Clevo Control Center to undervolt the CPU by -104mV. However, I had a couple of other issues with my computer and decided to do a full 'reset' (the option that removes all programs and files from the...

No idea if it'll be the same for you, but I had an issue with temps when I first got my Octane IV, I ended up undervolting by -104mV and I gained an 11 degree Celsius dip in my temps under load, also made the whole thing more stable...

Hey, so I've had this laptop for roughly 2 years, maybe a little bit longer, and I don't know why but I'm only just wanting to look at experimenting with the soundblaster connect app.. However, I can't seem to get it to do any, as in any settings I change doesn't seem to change the sound at...

Hey, My laptop messed up a bit, so I went back and downloaded the hotkey/control center zip from PCS downloads section and re-installed it (the version on the PCS download section is Control Center AP Version: 5.0001.1.62). However, for some reason the CPU OC app from it doesn't open, so I went...

Thanks Spyder! Is there any reason PCS are unlikely to stock 2666Mhz?

I'm using an i7 8700k

Great, thanks Spyder! One last thing, in regards to ram, my suggested upgrades on PCS are all 2133mhz or 2400mhz, does that mean the Octane IV isn't capable of accepting 2666mhz or 3000mhz ram such as this? All the specs seem to line up (as far as I can tell), but just makes me curious since...

Hey, from what it says at scan it says it's a PCIe 3.0 in the info like the intel one PNY XLR8 CS3030 2TB M.2 vs Intel 660p 2TB M.2

I've got an Octane IV 17" laptop which I'm looking to upgrade a little. I'm comfortable with fitting parts etc, but I do get confused with compatibility. I took a look at the 'upgrade' options in my PCS account, but it only shows a few m.2 options such as the 'Intel 660p 2TB M.2' and '1TB...

I've got an Octane IV with i7 8700k & GTX 1080, but I'm trying to enable the i7 8700k graphics so I can take advantage of the Adobe accelerated encoding. However I can't find the settings in the BIOS and the BIOS in general seems really simple compared to what I'm used to. Any help on how to...

Yea fair enough. I've just tested undervolting. Tried -150mV first as I saw that suggested elsewhere, but that killed the system as soon as I pressed save. Ended up at -104mV, which seems stable at the minute & gave me -11c on a second run of the stress test. Will keep an eye on it though.

I've only had it since 2nd March. It's had limited use at the minute & when not in use, it's been in a laptop bag, so I'm not sure it's a dust issue. I've just performed a stress test using the Intel Extreme Tuning Utility & these are the results (max temp was 92c, core frequency was 4.29Hz &...

Never been this high before when it's not doing anything. Home is ~18c. How can I troubleshoot?

Hi all, just looking for some help on this. Whenever I turn my laptop on and connect it to my wifi network the whole wifi then goes down and I can no longer connect to it on any device. It requires a reboot of the router to bring it back. Any idea what's causing this?

Hi all, I've read bits and bobs of people having overheating issues with Octane IV & the 8700k & 1080GTX combo and since I've recently picked up this laptop, I'm looking for a simple way of testing the temps of both the CPU & GPU without having to play hours of games etc. I got the laptop as...
