Precision M6800 questions and upgrades
SuperMG replied to Jers6410's topic in Pro Max & Precision Mobile Workstation
Hello. Now pair that with a 150W GPU, your computer will shutdown instantly! The M6800 doesn't shut down and still maintains without power throttle on both CPU and GPU. I set my current to 90A and I can easily do 65W at 3.9GHz -
Precision M6800 questions and upgrades
Bennett replied to Jers6410's topic in Pro Max & Precision Mobile Workstation
On my ZBook 17 G2, I can run the 4940MX at 80W TDP, undervolted -65mV. HP seems to not lock the TDP at all, Dell and Lenovo lock the TDP. - Today

RTX 4060 Mobile MXM X-Vsion Datasheet download
SuperMG replied to FrancoTecno's topic in Components & Upgrades
X-vsion confirmed me in email that both cards are 115W. For Dell precision M4700/M4800 users, better get a dual heatpipes GPU heatsink to handle max 120W. The OEM one heatpipe isn't good, it can handle max 60W to 65W. -
RTX 4060 Mobile MXM X-Vsion Datasheet download
FrancoTecno replied to FrancoTecno's topic in Components & Upgrades
Yes, but exist some inconsistencies between the datasheet of each card and the web page info, 4060 tdp in page is like 115w and here 100w -

Hi! How’s the project coming along? Can’t wait for the 'project complete' announcement and for it to finally go on sale for everyone. -

RTX 4060 Mobile MXM X-Vsion Datasheet download
SuperMG replied to FrancoTecno's topic in Components & Upgrades
This is the same as the RTX 4070 datasheet I based on to make the backlight for RTX eDP mod + getting most of the RTX Ada to work with eDP laptops. -

official X-Vsion RTX 4060 Mobile MXM datasheet PDF. refer to attached file. this is useful for our upgrades! try using this datasheet and official notebook diagram for better references about internal connections MXM_RTX4060M_EP176BV10EN.PDF

Hi! Yes, I forgot about the note, will update ^^ Honestly, I don't really have aset price range and I'm not opposed to keeping it, till the right offer/buyer comes along. I removes the soft touch with nail polish remover and a sponge, was relatively easy. Then primer and 2-3 light coats of matte black spray paint. Shipping is a bit expensive but I think somewhere in the 100€ range if done right. I could research an exact price, if you're seriously interested 😄

HP Elitebook 8570W - is it still good ? Hardware modifications
JadeRover replied to GuitarG's topic in Custom Builds
@Vladka76 Yes, this should work, nice that 8770w has DP_D -> eDP, this will make GPU compatibility greater. I noticed a trend that up to zbook 15 g3. All 15 inch HP worstations with MXM3 connector have DP_C -> eDP which is a shame = special HP vbios needed or mac rumors vbios needs to be used (best card is the P5200). If not, there will be no picture on LCD. Unless you have a vbios that has standard DP_C -> DP (standard display port), then a backligh mod can be performed but screen is stuck at 100% brigthness. Couldn't find boardview, schematic is preffered tbh so good that you have it. I think you will need to mod the specific "Dream Color" cable that came with these laptops, the standard LVDS cable won't have cables connected to the pins associated with eDP, they will be unpopulated as why would your LVDS cable need to carry eDP wires ? Alternatevely you could repin a LVDS cable to connect to the eDP lines. What I think is easier is : getting DC cable, cut off the end that connects to the interposer board and solder a standard 40 pin ipex connector used by eDP displays (if cable length is enough to connect to display, it should be). Only problem is that eDP cables used or high bandwidth, which is the case here, need special coaxial cables that are HELL to solder (experienced this the hard way when trying to mod a zbook cable). These are usually soldered with lasers in factories D= Might be worth it to find a manufacturer who can build you the cable, on tabao or even aliexpress, sellers you make custom cables should offer it as it isn't much work for them. PS : Your pinout is correct, but you do need pin 44 that is eDP HPD (hot plug detect), required for eDP, not sure what the MARS signal pin is, you can trace it back on the schematic, probably a GPIO pin to tell the PCH or EC chip that a DC display is present in the system.- 337 replies

I believe you must have a price for each item regardless if you are open to offers. Also 1 pic needs a handwritten note with your username. What did you use to remove the soft touch? Beautiful red laptop. Would love it but shipping to US is probably insane

HP Elitebook 8570W - is it still good ? Hardware modifications
Vladka76 replied to GuitarG's topic in Custom Builds
Absolutely right! And my 8770w also needs the same cable. 🙂 I looked at the schematics – he uses the DP_D port to output the image to the internal screen, which is standard. But if you have a boardview file for 8770w, please email it to me. I would be very grateful! My understanding is that on the motherboard connector side, I need to swap the wires in the cable connector from the LVDS interface (16 pcs: pins 19-26 and 29-36) to the DP interface (10-12 pcs: pins 39-50, possibly excluding 43 and 44). The question is - what's the best way to handle the unused wires? Pull them out? And on the display connector side, I need to completely replace the existing LVDS connector with a standard eDP 40-pin connector for displays and solder the wires according to the standard eDP 40-pin pinout. And theoretically, 😁 everything should work...- 337 replies

Hi! Up for sale are my two Alienware M18XR2's. I'm open for offers! Will trade for Clevo D900F Some specs (Nebula Red): -i7 3940xm -GTX 680m 2GB SLI (one broken but with second heatsink, fan and SLI cable) - 32GB 1600MHz SKHynix (4x8) -SSD original MSATA or small samsung pro SATA Working battery! Condition very good, 90% left, 4-5 hours of use for browsing and light use! 2x available (1x 90% 1x 84%) Its got the good three heatpipe copper heatsink for the cpu and two NV100W GPU heatsinks, so perfect for modding. Its in a very, very clean condition (I cleaned every single part by hand, repasted and restored it completely) Repasted the CPU with Duronaut, barely audible in Windows. GPU is some cheap paste, since I dont game on it and only used it very rarely for a movie or two. The palmrest was in great condition but sticky so I removed the soft touch and repainted it in matte black -> very good result if I can say so! Its way more comfortable to use and no fingerprints are left on the matte surface. AC adaptor is a 240w one, dont have the 330 one anymore. The black M18X is also very clean, and in good condition, but with a broken display and broken keyboard bezel cable that controls the volume and stuff. But if course, I can put all of the components of the red one in the black m18x r2, if you'd rather want one on black. Specs: -I7 3630QM -16GB RAM -No GPU -2x AMD 100w heatsinks -standart cpu heatsink -240W AC I'll upload some more pictures if i see interest in these laptops or send me a dm. Dont hesitate to ask questions! Im in europe so shipping in EU is prefered but I can manage internatiol shipping if requested.

Just to check Re the firmware version I was prompted to update today been out for Easter holiday but was prompted to update the dock and it listed multiple fixes. Annoyingly I cannot find the link to it currently it was listed as Dell Dock WD19/WD22/HD22/WD25/SD25 Firmware update utility 01.01.13 01 the only issue I’ve seen with our users is external monitor black screen when unlocking laptop but it’s not always so hard to replicate.

Yes! It was the motherboard. What exactly on the motherboard was bad, I'll probably never know. But everything I had on the bad motherboard works on the replacement board. And my new board came with the Premamod Unlocked BIOS on it, so for me this was an instant upgrade. Running Linux CatchyOS on it now instead of Windows.
