    I looked better, the problem should be those on the frame, an adapter would be needed, perhaps a sheet underneath, so you screw the card to the sheet and then the sheet to the frame (I'm going through some images, I don't have my PC with me, I might be talking nonsense)
  5. a-bracci00
    Ah, the problem is precisely the screw locations, but the problem is the screws that hold it to the frame or the heatsink? That's a big problem then.

    Someone was able to upgrade to the RTX 3000 before Not sure where to get these RTX gpus outside of ebay, maybe a recycler? These were in some models of HP Zbooks IIRC. 17 G5 was the last with the mxm slot IIRC

    kryo sheet is very bad idea for GPU. the GPU PWR draw stuck at only 100w. i don't know the reason . the thermal hit 72c with kryo shit 🙂
  8. Maro97
    the best thermal paste ever use for GPU is ( grizzly duronaut ) 1 hr the TEMP never hit 65c the fan on sensors mode

    Microsoft continue improve their latest and greatest OS. Too the worse. There is no bottom on how bad it can be. Windows 11's newly revamped Start menu design is annoyingly large The new Start menu is being rolled out to all users on Windows 11 25H2 with no option to keep using the old design.

    The problem isn't that. It's the x-bracket position for the screws. How will you screw in your 4090? There's like 0.6cm and 1cm (by memory) of offset in X and Y axis. It's very easy to add 1mm thick copper plate with some 1-2mm very adhesive thermal pads.
  11. a-bracci00
    I've seen some pictures of the heatsink online. The problem should be that a RAM module that's left out would work if I added a copper foil + thermal pad where it's missing, which connects to the heatsink. Would the heat be distributed?
  12. SuperMG
    Yes it'll work but you'll lose performance. 4070 works on my Dell Precision 7720 in both SG and eDP mode with the flex FPC cable.

    Not sure, they might ask 10k for it as well lol😂. Anyways will the card work on switchable graphics mode?
  14. SuperMG
    Then wait, and hope they release a full DP/DP/DP/eDP VBIOS. Maybe tell them to use that configuration? The GPU itself is compatible but the heatsink isn't. Heatsink is the biggest problem.
  15. a-bracci00
    So you're telling me that I won't be able to use these cards on a Clevo x170km because the heatsink that sits on the GPU is too different in shape? That's not good news.
  16. Derpmaster69
    Absolutely no way I'm gonna pay 1500$ for an rtx 4060 level gpu. Well won't the 3050 6gb (the one i was talking about earlier) work on optimus at least, even with the backlight mod? Speaking of which I was asking about the 50 series and they said that it would be manufactured within 6 months.

    This card looks cursed, HDMI on DP_A and DP_B... I don't think there will be any VBIOS at this point... No DP or eDP on C... Aetina has some cards that can do DP on all ports, like the Ada 2000? X-VSION told me I need to pay them 10k for a "new project"? They thought I need a new design, a new PCB? I just need an updated 2MB firmware file for the 4090...

    I read about less SSD performance and less battery time somewhere and could measure that back in the days when I switched from Win 10 to 11 - first with dual boot to go back to 10 in case of issues and I checked SSD speeds of my data drive (m.2 NVMe - lower numbers with 11, same hardware, only 10 and 11 on two other drives. Shorter battery time on Win 11. From then on I read about some perf updates which came with "feature updates" and from time to time Win 11 seems to get faster drive speeds and more battery time than in the beginning of Win 11. Biggest SSD slow down is our company policy which forces another virus scanner on our systems so real time scanning slows down and DevDrive cannot use async file scanning... I understand your point of stability of features and behaviour and the choice when to upgrade to next H1 or H2 to avoid surprises after a forced Windows Update 😉

    @SuperMGJust saw that XVSION has made an RTX 3050 6gb MXM a card. Wonder if it will work on my zbook 15 g2-atleast in hybrid mode?(I think the eDP is on C in the 15 g2). As I've heard, only up to turing cards would work. Will there at least be a modified vbios for a DP_C output?

    I wish I could say that I had a surprised look on my face, but they have always been a very dishonest company when it comes to standing behind the overpriced products that they sell. Sadly, there are other brands that are similarly dishonest and unworthy of any respect. Very few PC component manufacturers have been honorable and trustworthy companies, and that is one of the main reasons it was so sad when EVGA decided they were done. https://hwbot.org/benchmarks/cinebench_-_2024/submissions/5935696

    Be sure you use microscope on your Asus GPU if you send it in for an RMA. Very important if you opened up the card and slapped on a WB. If you are lucky you may get an replacement card from Asus for 50% discount. Damn, good deal. Isn't it? ASUS quoted $4,661 CAD to replace RTX 5090 ASTRAL over tiny PCB crack, customer calls it design flaw

    UPDATE #2: The motherboard I bought from Aliexpress has finally arrived. After a visual inspection, I noticed a few things: • Indeed, it's a Precision 7720 motherboard (LA-E321P) • The seller forgot the CPU heatsink mounting bracket • The NS692417 IC chip has a cracked package • The seller told me it was a Xeon motherboard, but the DP/N 05V4K9 indicates it is an i7-7920HQ model. At first, I thought there were two possibilities: either the seller sent me an i7-7920HQ motherboard by mistake, or it's a motherboard that was previously repaired and had its CPU replaced. • Judging by the solder flux residue marks and other details like "bubbles" on the insulation sheet, the latter option is correct: the motherboard has been previously repaired, as expected. After the visual inspection, I installed the motherboard in the chassis and tried to boot it even without the CPU heatsink mounting bracket. After some struggling with shutdowns due to high temperatures caused by improper contact between the heatsink and the CPU die (I didn’t want to take the CPU heatsink mounting bracket from the 7710 motherboard because I want to keep it as "original" as possible), I was able to access the BIOS and got confirmation: the CPU is indeed a Xeon E3-1535M v6, just as the seller told me. NOW IT'S OFFICIALLY A 7720! After that, I booted into Windows and tested all the functions: RAM slots, SSD slots, MXM slot, WLAN slot, etc. Everything is working normally. As for the CPU heatsink mounting bracket, I have already bought a defective 7710 motherboard to remove its bracket. While I was installing the "new" motherboard, I made a mistake. I really wish I had seen this comment earlier: So, the thing is: the 7710 left side IO daughterboard (DP/N 0CJFG2) connected just fine to the 7720 motherboard, but when i tried to connect the right side IO daughterboard (Dell P/N 0GMNG8) to the 7720 motherboard, I noticed that it wasn’t fitting correctly, even though it was perfectly aligned, so I forced it and ended up damaging the plastic guides for the connection. Now somehow I will try to fix that plastic guide, and I think I’ll have to buy a 7720 right side IO daughterboard. Well, despite everything, I consider this 7720 motherboard was a good deal, since it’s working and I got it for really cheap.

    I usually prefer offset and full vcore. But for daily use you'll need to use the curve and reduce the power limits with the XOC vbios. I would prefer a fully working voltage slider. It's what it is,,,, Asus screwed own customer base. They put in all the works into firmware tuning to try stop the Matrix from working with all their other 5090 SKUs, hence they also failed lock out all the other cards from other brands as they hoped for. What we just have seen is only the beginning of what Asus is capable to do for their next gen cards. Full locked down firmware for each SKU to differentiate the cards from each other. Just make minor changes on the PCB and there you go. Or Nvidia find new ways to let their partners lock you out from cross-flashing and shunt mods.

    im tending towards the mount, i could do 8000 stable before with this exact cpu :) i only switched out case, fans, cpu aio and updated bios. no changes to the actual hardware. so with bios out of the way that leaves the mount, lets see how it goes.

    how many processes are running in the background when idle after reboot? (my guess is you are still at least x2 if not x3 higher from the count my task manager shows below; idle after reboot.)
