Yes that works. I got them to work on P775TM1. VBIOS should be in UEFI and the DP_D should be there.

RAM speed at 3200 and lower. no problem whatsoever until 96GB of RAM yes I could run the p870 with SLI GTX1080 and 128Gb of RAM by disabling the thunderbolt. Even without disabling the thunderbolt in the Bios I could boot with just an error message {PCI RESOURCES ERROR: Insufficient PCI resources detected}. but now with the RTX3080, I just get a black screen.

Any educated guesses as to what is best to pair with what? Is it Resolution? Framerate? both? For Lossless Scaling it comes down to bandwidth on the pcie lanes. Does the power usage remain the same or does it drop?

World of Warcraft current retail Midnight DLSS5 using a 5090 primary and DLSS5 external rendering with a 5070.... Talking to Oglethorpe over on OCN, apparently the 5090 pairs best with a 5070ti and a 5080 with a 5070. 5090 + 5080 is slight overkill but that's ok. In current market conditions, 5080 + 5070 is going to be the sweet spot methinks.... Once we get around the anti cheat problems and external DLSS5 rendering refinements, this is going to be the god mode way of playing.... Same goes for Fallout 76. Same anti cheat problems atm, but here is Fallout 4 (same engine and basically graphics) with DLSS5 enabled. Absolutely gorgeous. More realistic (IE not modded to the gills) Fallout 4 with DLSS5 is still crazy good looking: I said it before, but I'll said it again. DLSS5 is such a more radical leap forward for graphics fidelity than Ray Tracing it isn't even in the same galaxy.

Not that we're surprised and it was fully expected, but possibly no new GPUs from AMD and Nvidia till 2028..... If the market demand keeps up as is, I wouldn't be surprised to see a fall 2028 release and an almost full 3yr cycle vs 2yr. https://videocardz.com/newz/nvidia-geforce-rubin-and-most-amd-rdna-5-gpus-reportedly-not-coming-until-2028 ---------------------------------- Another nifty tool that raises the power limits of Nvidia laptop GPU: https://videocardz.com/newz/modder-creates-tool-that-raises-rtx-5070-ti-laptop-gpu-power-to-180w-rtx-5090-up-to-225w Not sure what we will see, but I know my OC'd Alienware 5070ti at 175w wasn't much, if at all, over my G16 9955HX3D 5070ti OC 140w. @win32asmguy push that 5090 to 225w..... ----------------------------------- Might need to put a bit of clear tape over your serial # moving.....the serial # isn't stamped somewhere on the PCB too??

Does anyone know if old MXM 3.0b graphics cards work on Clevo P870TM systems, specifically Maxwell architecture cards ? Only for testing the mxm slot to see the data on laptop screen

What’s the RAM speed ? And does the 128GB of RAM work with a graphics card other than the RTX 3080?

p870KM and p775TM 9900KS with Danske 128GB RAM bios version. I can not making work 128GB of ram (crucial ballistix) with RTX3080 on both laptops! it seems to be related to the installed RTX3080. look for confirmation and a way to bypass the problem.

Do you have P870TM ?

HP and Lenovo laptops are the latest victims of a Windows 11 update Microsoft's August update (KB5121003) is reportedly corrupting BIOS on HP laptops and disabling AC charging on Lenovo laptops.

What you last expected from your damn expensive adventure... Screwed by bad design. Or is it a new joke by AI? Nope, it's due greed. To cut on costs. "Printed with ink" onto the bracket's surface rather than etched for better durability. For comparison, the last-generation GeForce RTX 4090 Founders Edition had its serial number laser-etched onto the metal bracket. "Cost reduction!" is the most plausible explanation for the switch from laser etching to ink printing, as laser engraving equipment and process time add manufacturing cost per unit that ink printing avoid.

so my 1 1/2 year old son figured out how to open the magnetic side panel on my corsair 9000d. next he decided to pull out one of the hard tubing causing coolant to spill everywhere. nothing was damaged thankfully, but I did learn my pump only runs like 50% most of the time even with cpu on full load, causing high temps. I fixed that and well this is what happens next lol. 4.5Ghz on all cores W7-3465X. Yeah I probably should have kept my 2 RTX 3090s instead of selling them. Turns out they would have lasted awhile longer , but my RTX Titans are fun too. Still need to do the shunt mod. i forgot if it was @electrosoft who sent me a picture of the mod. I saw you were rocking an AMD system. It's unfortunate Intel didn't release the W790 platform with a sibling for a true HEDT successor for us "normal" people. I bought the motherboard for $949 on "sale" at the time. I was lucky to find someone selling a QS CPU for less than half of the $2899 MSRP for the CPU. 128GB RDIMMs before the rampocolypse for ~$700. Overall it came out a bit more than a i9-7980XE platform did back then but this platform screams Mr. Fox especially with the X unlocked CPUs. Nothing like overclocking +1.3Ghz on water pulling over 500w of power. 😂

Checkmate on the consumer grade 5090 availability. 😞 Now at least we know why 5090s have been drying up AND prices going up. If AI shops are converting 5090s to AI farm cards as is and with extra memory, why not just re-direct those 5090s into RTX 5500's with 84GB of memory which is close enough to the RTX 6000 with 96GB of memory and charge $12k? Scary thing is if demand doesn't abate, all pricing will continue to scale upward.. Demand is so high, and memory capacity so important, that they are now scavenging their top end consumer grade GPUs..... We already have the RTX 4500 using the 5080 (GB203) die with 32GB of memory for $4500. If Nvidia decides to bump that to 48GB+, we could see a sudden shifting of even those dies at this rate. Just wow..... That is a hard NO. I mean zero chance. Zilch. Nada. Nunca. Nyet. I wouldn't even pay $4k let alone $7-8k for a 6090. I can't begin to tell you how hard it was to swallow that $3399 I paid for the Astral which I LOVED and returned purely based on price alone. Snagging a Vanguard for sub $2k and a Ventus 5090 for $2k last August was lightning in a bottle..... I'm kicking myself for not keeping the open box Ventus 5090 for $2k from last August 2025..... 🤣 You might be kicking yourself a little too for not holding onto the 5090 FE considering how much the net now. But everyone has a breaking point and if 6090s are $3.5k+ at launch which is A> Extremely conservative and B> Assuming we even get 6090s seeing as how the 5090s are being redirected into AI sector level cards due to demand, who knows? Who even knows if we get a 2027 launch as 2028 is looking more realistic unless AMD brings the high heat (which rumors are still saying YES). It really feels like Nvidia is trending pricing up and next gen the 6080 will slot in right where the 3090 used to be price wise at $1499.99 and it will be basically our top end card next go around. 4080 Super is basically on the heels of the 5080 so a performance bump for the 6080 to maybe 5090 next time or at least between the 4090 and 5090? More AI tech as it refines to continue to boost performance and visuals while working on latency. Meanwhile, reserve the top end dies for the RTX 6500/7000 class cards for AI. But yeah, when we get to the point of $5k+ 6090s at (paper) launch and memory kits hitting $1k+ for 2x16GB let alone CPUs and MBs combos of meaningful SKUs hitting $1.3k+ it is time to downsize and look to longevity of current hardware if that. I can see a time where I sell off everything, quietly step down to 080 (or lower) tier hardware and mid tier CPUs and GPUs and work with that with these crazy climbing prices. Once you adjust your enthusiast POV, you suddenly find yourself building out much cheaper systems that are quite capable. I'm to that point I won't even spend more than $3k on a PC laptop tops and even there I tend to trend lower than higher. I had the opportunity to pick up an MSI Raider like @win32asmguy has but it was $3650 + tax and I walked away especially in light of the $1800 for this G16 which takes a major performance hit (~18k TS vs ~26k TS) but is holding it down at half the cost with a 9955HX3D inside. My costs incurred this year for problems and issues is mind boggling from incidentals to a financial and working stake in a small start up. The hits just keep on coming. 🤪 Quite honestly, the smart move for me is to sell off almost everything and pick up a Studio M5 Ultra w/ 96GB as the 48GB in my (albeit contractor issued) current M4 Max is hitting a wall for the small startup I'm involved with as a side project atm. Whoa! Very nice and a good price in these trying times! I'm glad to know that site is legit and I'll be adding it to my list of places to check out on the regular, good find! Do you plan on putting better heatsinks / water cooling any of your sticks? You already have a good loop setup so it would be fairly straight forward to get them running uber cool. Our local MCs still have these in stock along with a few 5090s namely the GB Infinity for $5400 and I saw an Astral 5090 AIO for $5229. I just checked and there's a couple white Astrals for $5k+ but I also saw a 5090 TUF for $4699.....because that's kinda a "deal" atm? Ugh.... MC sells the Asus bundle for $10829 = ~$11.5k after tax. That. Is. Insane.

Todays joke. Asus is the goat, LOL Asus' ludicrous 20th anniversary bundle is now the cheapest way to buy an RTX 5090 NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 Prices Blow Through the Roof, Now Starting at Over $6000 & Going Beyond $9000 While Chinese AI Firms Continue to Gobble Up Gaming Cards in Bulk

Sounds like normal behaviour to me. Without knowing any specific brand or model, modern machines typically fully utilize the max. thermal envelope available to them -under load, that is- and will downclock the CPU as appropriate when they reach a certain temperature threshold.

Just got a new laptop with 32GB RAM and I'm trying to figure out the best way to keep thermals in check during long sessions. After about an hour of use the fans kick in pretty hard and I'm seeing temps around 85-90C under load. Is this normal for a high-spec laptop or should I be looking at repasting or adjusting fan curves? How you are managing heat on the machines!

If looks matter to you too, you can definitely explore a few other brands with the same specs because Lenovo is durable for sure, but you can probably find something that gives you both the build quality and the design you want.

I haven’t used this particular laptop, but if hinges are your main concern, I’d suggest looking at Lenovo laptops. I’ve used two HP laptops myself and had hinge issues with both, and eventually the screen started getting damaged too, performance was fine otherwise, but because of that experience, I personally wouldn’t recommend HP if durability is the priority.

M2000M primary + RTX 5000 secondary in PEG mode

I finally found a rtx5000, looks like it is a standard mxm card from adlink. Just want to check in.. will RTX5000 work in PEG? Or is it still SG mode with my primary as m2000m.

You're probably not gonna like my answer but ... just buy a Macbook 😄 Just use google docs/sheets instead of Office 🙂 or get a HP EliteBook/similar work laptop with Linux... tho I personally prefer Mac, once you get used to it it's great.

A bit late to the party but I recommend going on Taobao and talking to the vendors there, some of them are willing to custom build one/already have one that you need. If u need more details on how to do the whole Taobao thingy just dm me, you can't directly order outside of China and need to go through a 3rd party and so on, but once u get the hang of it its really really easy 🙂, and the shipping is quite fast tbh
