I thought he was trying to get a quick buck from me... I hope it has express shipping:)

look, so no scam n 100% service, custom stuff sometimes not fit 100% like original parts, but most of those lil custom factories always try to fix it 🙂

Yeah and I give up, I always get scammed man, CPU not work, heatsink doesn't fit with palmrest. The heatpipes look in bad shape EDIT: SELLER WILL GIVE ME A FREE NEW HEATPIPE V2!!!! But I need to wait like 3 weeks ... Yes, he said FREE

im tempted to order the heatsink n put the fat heatpipes from the original heatsink on it... 🤪 edit, do u wrote cicichen bcs of the issues? i think he may will solve it

Yeah and I give up, I always get scammed man, CPU does not work. The heatsink doesn't fit with palmrest but it works. The heatpipes look in bad shape, is that a beta version?? EDIT: SELLER WILL GIVE ME A FREE NEW HEATPIPE V2!!!! But I need to wait like 3 weeks ...

ahh think i got it, so the lower heatpipe doin pressure to the soundboard n bcs of that it doesnt fit?

The fins + heatpipe are like OEM, 1.8cm height, no problem on that. But it's strange??? The heatpipes curves are made by hand and not machine... 70€ gone for nothing

did u measured old n new heatsink? where is the prob, at the radiator/fins or the cooler plate itself to high? im machinist n most things easy doable for me when its made from metal 😄

The only way the palmrest can close it by removing the top left PCB for the sound system... . I even removed one metallic piece that was on its way but that didn't fix the issue. I even removed the 3mm thick thermal pad that was on the mobo

You need a hardware calibration tool like Datacolor SpyderX or something else. I had the 4k display with 98% Adobe RGB and calibrate it with that tool. Wide uncalibrated garmut displays makes absolutly no sense.

It appears to be a software issue, as evidenced by the BIOS seeing it, and the output of the Ubuntu community's Wireless Info Script: https://github.com/UbuntuForums/wireless-info https://drive.google.com/file/d/1hDamjIeDjaBPvvXzgR65BeXS4hg3Ec9n/view?usp=sharing So I posted a question over there. We'll see what they come up with.

now were talking indeed! DDR5-7600 CL32 stable baby! usually id get CL38+, finally a good mount 😄 maybe the delid helped here too 😛 timing tuning ongoing...

I put RTX 4080 MXM on M6800 and it works (check userbenchmark for proof). No weird 40W TDP bug (maybe only happens on Alienware?). Yes 4080 displays in the main screen, eDP with backlight mod v1. The custom heatsink works, need to use PTM7950 for better performance. Sadly I can't close the lid with the heatsink installed...

Just got one of those for my M6800, without antennas, because I really didn't want to take the screen apart too, to swap them out, and now I'm having some problems. https://www.amazon.com/8774Mbps-Gigabit-Interface-Bluetooth-BE200HMW/dp/B0DNZS761K?th=1 Ubuntu Studio 24.04 LTS booted right up with the new card, but it didn't see any WiFi at all. lspci says: 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Xeon E3-1200 v3/4th Gen Core Processor DRAM Controller (rev 06) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Xeon E3-1200 v3/4th Gen Core Processor PCI Express x16 Controller (rev 06) 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 4th Gen Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 06) 00:03.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation Xeon E3-1200 v3/4th Gen Core Processor HD Audio Controller (rev 06) 00:14.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation 8 Series/C220 Series Chipset Family USB xHCI (rev 04) 00:16.0 Communication controller: Intel Corporation 8 Series/C220 Series Chipset Family MEI Controller #1 (rev 04) 00:19.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation Ethernet Connection I217-LM (rev 04) 00:1a.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation 8 Series/C220 Series Chipset Family USB EHCI #2 (rev 04) 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 8 Series/C220 Series Chipset High Definition Audio Controller (rev 04) 00:1c.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 8 Series/C220 Series Chipset Family PCI Express Root Port #1 (rev d4) 00:1c.2 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 8 Series/C220 Series Chipset Family PCI Express Root Port #3 (rev d4) 00:1c.3 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 8 Series/C220 Series Chipset Family PCI Express Root Port #4 (rev d4) 00:1c.4 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 8 Series/C220 Series Chipset Family PCI Express Root Port #5 (rev d4) 00:1c.6 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 8 Series/C220 Series Chipset Family PCI Express Root Port #7 (rev d4) 00:1c.7 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 8 Series/C220 Series Chipset Family PCI Express Root Port #8 (rev d4) 00:1d.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation 8 Series/C220 Series Chipset Family USB EHCI #1 (rev 04) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation QM87 Express LPC Controller (rev 04) 00:1f.2 RAID bus controller: Intel Corporation 82801 Mobile SATA Controller [RAID mode] (rev 04) 00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corporation 8 Series/C220 Series Chipset Family SMBus Controller (rev 04) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GP104GLM [Quadro P5000 Mobile] (rev a1) 01:00.1 Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation GP104 High Definition Audio Controller (rev a1) 03:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Wi-Fi 7(802.11be) AX1775*/AX1790*/BE20*/BE401/BE1750* 2x2 (rev 1a) 11:00.0 SD Host controller: O2 Micro, Inc. SD/MMC Card Reader Controller (rev 01) I swapped back to the old card, and it wouldn't boot. Got stuck on the second Ubuntu Studio splash screen, after auto-login, for loading the user's settings. Same with no card, and even with the new card again! It was rock-solid reliable before! The BIOS says with the new card: I finally got it to boot again, with the new card, though I don't know how or why. Didn't change anything. And I still don't have WiFi. Fortunately, my home dock is wired, and that still works, but I do need WiFi when I take it places. Any ideas?

Sadly the nature ofy work requires I sit behind the windshield but at the very least for now I do second shift so my commute is close to 20 minutes. Would be nice if I could get 7pm departure though so I could socialize but for now income is good and it appears they want to steer me towards engineer route which I do like the sound of :)

strange n think i only need a new heatsink in the 7720 when i would put an RTX card in bcs temps r really good(P5200 @ 110W max. 59°c. CPU max. 73°c. at 26°c. ambient temp. - used arctic mx-7 for both)

No, it's maybe the thickness of it but it's the same thickness as the OEM one, mmmh.

3rd heatpipe too much?

I think it will work fine but the vbios screw up the fans. It seems nothing is meant to work properly with Asus cards. I mean have seen the AIO owners say only the single fan for the VRM on the GPU works but not for the fans for the radiator. Can probably swap out the org fans with some that I can connect to a fan controller/MB. The fans for the radiator coming with the Asus AIO cards doesn't have a "normal" fan connector or connected with cables. And not sure the fan for the VRM will work correctly anyhow. Everything proprietary mounted. Exactly as good old Dell. Our old friend F. Azor would be proud of Asus and todays modern way to make tech. With a custom block it will work just fine but that will be another $500-700 with needed parts. And +2 months lead time. Nothing to find for needed parts here home. Jufus want you to pay for the repair, LOL He blame the game for this, LOL Double power connectors can save your day - MSI RTX 5090 Lightning Z “solder joint gate”

I tested with everything, 1R8, 2R8. It doesn't like dual channel... Waited for nothing and 35€ gone 😞 The heatsink: max 83C core temp, stable TDP (no 40W TDP bug). 150W then 130W then 120W (because of thermal throttling). I didn't use PTM7950 yet and the fan area wasn't really open for intake. Sadly the palmrest won't close because of the heatsink....

Thanks for doing this Annihilator. You may be the last of the guys on this forum to do this. Like the poster on another subject said, most of us are just buying the best computer that we can afford and not modding. The rest are using their phones. You should visit the video forums for a shock. They are dying also except for Videohelp.com. The rest are almost dead.

I managed to solve all of these issues so might as well put the solution here for future reference. - Fans no staying at desired speed was caused by Resping Period checkbox being disabled by default. I enabled it and set it to 5000ms which fixed the issue while being light on the CPU. - I fixed the GPU temps by replacing the heatsink screws with regular M2*6 screws with an above average head. Didnt go all the way with the tightness and didnt reuse the c-bracket for the screws; I used the 8970m x-bracket without any modification. Temps are now under control and barely reach 70s under load. BTW, the GPU ended up being a DELL 8970m according to GPU-Z. Flashed the vbios but went back to stock as it was causing crashes when gaming. Cheers!

4x 8GB? maybe the IMC of the 4700 has a better bin then the one from the 4910. do u tried only 2 modules or 4x4GB? possible the IMC from the 4910 has probs with 4x dual-rank(8GB) modules

Now we're talkin! @Papusan Do any of the Lightning vBIOS files work on the Asus 5090 Astral AIO?

Ok,I understand, yes I bought the modded heatsink from him, its also the 18 inch Aleinware 18
