I have observed that when I run cinebench20 with default Performance mode @ 88W PPT / 60 TDC / 90 EDC. it drops after a few seconds to 75W PPT / 60 TDC / 50 EDC and all cores are locked at 3,6Ghz. it gives a pretty low CineBench20 score of 4150 pts (3700X model). The temperatures remain in the...

Sorry I havent seen that you requested via Tapatalk. I've listened to a few coil whine sounds online and it doesnt sound like mine... Coil whine seems more like a buzzing sound that is changing from lower to higher frequencies everytime you move in a game for example, when my sound is just a...

Here it is, the first one is more of an idle and the second with fans ramped up a bit. I recorded it with the computer microphone so I hope you can hear it. The sound disappears when the GPU fan stops completely.

It might be... All I know is that I hear it only when the GPU fans goes over 40%, which is the idle speed on this machine. But I guess it could be the GPU doing coil whine. I'm not sure what to do. I whish someone with the same machine would tell me it's common on this model because if I can't...

Hi everyone, I received a brand new Nova laptop last weekend. I'm very happy with it so far, but since 2-3 days, a continuous sharp whistling is coming from the GPU fan. The kind of noise you hear more or less depending on where you are. I know most of the time this is due to dust obstructing...

Well, the problem for me is the fans ramping up and down all the time even when doing nothing (Except in power saving mode) It seems like the fans curves are based on Tctl which I understand, but it's not suitable for this machine as the Ryzen 3000 are constantly spiking every 2 seconds. The...

For some reason, I have the feeling that something has gotten worse for me when I'm in performance mode. In idle, my fans keeps ramping up and down even without any tasks running and normal temps in Ryzen Master around 55C. Setting up the maximum processing state at 99% doesnt seem to do any...

Do you know how to access the BIOS on this machine ? I can't find the way in.

Yes, it's all right for gaming. I was talking more of idle mode or doing pretty light tasks. So you did the power option change to 99% in performance mode right ? Did you switch to the Ryzen AMD Balanced mode to do so? I'm actually surprised I don't see any performance mode in plans in windows...

I think the biggest problem with this laptop is the fans control. They really have to tweak that because it's not suitable for a laptop and the fans keep going up and down. If anyone has custom fan curves to share, I'll take it.

I didn't re-pasted it for now but if I see an increase in temperatures, I will. When I use stock settings in full performance mode, I can have spikes at 85-90C. But I think we shouldn't take the spikes in consideration too much. Ryzen master shows a more accurate temperature than third party...

Are those temps coming from Ryzen Master or a third party software? I'm also considering undervolting mine but I don't really know how to use Ryzen master properly. For now, I disabled the turbo boost by setting the max processing state at 99% in the windows power options. I've lost 10 to 15C...

This is a brand new chassis. The XMG Apex 15 is the same model and they were talking about unlocking advanced controls short after the release, if it helps. I'm not sure how we will know about a BIOS update for ours though.

Interesting, how do you switch between the different modes and control the LED keyboard without it? :-)

I received my Nova this Saturday, I'm quite happy as well. It's a very good machine. But it's also quite hot despite only a 3700x. I have decent temps around 55 in idle but I've played Forza Horizon 4 for 30 minutes and the CPU reached above 90C in Performance mode. Also I noticed that temps in...
