Core clock is 2.19Ghz with turbo boost disabled and no other thing touched.

Score? hahahahaa. just 690-695 based 3 runs i did just now. If on turbo boost usually it is around 12xx. Tried playing with this setup while setting afterburner for flat curve at 1.4Ghz. Fortnite at High preset with motion blur disabled at 60fps and grass disabled, fps averages at 65-68 degrees with it peaked at 70 degrees just for short while.

I tried to add in epic Anti Aliasing and epic Textures but that just doesnt improve the quality to a significant level so im sticking to High preset now.  rclxms.gif

So currently disable turbo boost is the best way to keep temp low abit? I'm using this way to disable turno boost:

But still felt very hot on the panel of power button.

Any others recommended way? Internal or external(is cooling pad still a thing?) both also ok, as long as it cool down onyx when gaming.

Anyone facing display issue after update nvidia 441.87 driver?
After updated the driver the screen brightness malfunction suddenly. I can't adjust brightness level anymore. Higher the level the screen go darker. And at certain level, the screen will keep flickering.
What i had try:
1. Roller back driver
2. Disable and enable the driver
3. Uninstall and reinstall 441.66 driver
4. System restoration point

5. Now i try to use to DDU to uninstall the gpu driver, but it stuck when i try to restart in safe mode. And yes, now I cant even start my laptop. It just stuck at the starting screen logo there.

I really need some help.....

Update 1: ok now i able to uninstall the driver, but after uninstall still not able to change brightness and still flickering. After restart again, the driver version is 419.71, and cant install the 430.86 from illegear website
Update 2: after install geforce experience able to update driver but only the latest is available which is 441.87, issue still exists.

just a update for this issue.
I'd tried everything I can and even last resort - factory reset.
Took me days to fix this issue but nothing works.

So just a reminder, really need to think twice or 3 when you going to update your gpu driver, or even anything other drivers update on onyx.

Hi Grevil,

Have you contacted our support personnel? We will be able to help you to re-install the drivrers and re-format.

Yes, their provide me the full detail steps of clean reinstallation the gpu drivers, as I'm not able to carry in my machine to the shop shortly coz I'm not in town.
Had follow the steps and re-install the driver successfully but the brightness issue still exist.

Updating GPU driver on ONYX should not cause any issues if the steps are done correctly.

I'm update the gpu driver via nvidia GeForce Experience, right after that I start a game and after few minutes, the brightness sudden drop and cannot adjust back.
