Need help for editing or getting VBIOS for 4080M and 4090M MXM
SuperMG replied to SuperMG's topic in Components & Upgrades
Just get RTX 4080/4090, easy (I need their Vbios) I tested RTX Ada and my backlight mod on over a few pc and only the M6700 didn't work... Could be an issue with the motherboard since it shares LVDS lines too... You can search online for benchmarks. I am making a v2 of the backlight cable mod, I dropped the price of the v1. -
DLSS 4 already works on 3000 series, so no benifit for that. think biggest gain would be that same performance with 30W less TDP. but first will finish the M6800 anyway, may put an RTX in there n the P5200 in the 7720 then... still not sure ๐

SuperMG replied to SuperMG's topic in Components & Upgrades
4080 is better, newer architecture, beats 3080 by a margin, lower nanometers, DLSS 4, etc. Or get the 4090. It's ZRT not X-VSION. X-vsion is bad for 4080 and 4090 because of the VBIOS! I had a 3080 X-VSION, no issues when installing the drivers but the 4080 is faster, pulls more frames on furmark and heaven, don't have the pictures with me -
just checked the specs, the 4080 isnt faster then the 3080, slightly less mem bandwith + lower clock speeds ending up in a tie between both cards. so when i want no mess n just plug n play i should take the 3080(lil benefit on top: 180 bucks cheaper then the 4080)

The question is, "Are there really going to be massive profits?" or are they spending a lot of money on a gamble that it will eventually pay off. I am not convinced they are going to make money and may end up drawing back a bloody stump before it's over. I certainly hope so. It would be a real shame if their cash-grabbing nonsense turns out well for them and for their shareholders. I'd much prefer to see financial tragedy visited upon them. Tit for tat. -
Finally the new RTX MXM cards will work in our laptops!
SuperMG replied to SuperMG's topic in Components & Upgrades
150W ain't Max-Q. ZRT has eDP set to enabled. They advertise eDP unlike X-VSION and the VBIOS versions numbers are different than X-VSION. We talked about X-VSION RTX 4080, 4090 all day on this forum, no they have a bad display table. Most laptops use DP_B for DP but these cards are set in HDMI for DP_B... Also the eDP is present but it's set to disabled. So when we install the drivers, the screen turns off. This doesn't happen with RTX 4050,4060,4070,3080 because the eDP output is enabled. To fix this issue, the EDID override manipulation but it's quite annoying... Just contact ZRT thru email or thru blibli (China). There are sadly no downloads available online for these VBIOSes whatsoever... I wanna flash them on my cards too... -

The least they could do is pretend they love us and say nice things while they are choking us and pulling our hair. -

Annihilator replied to SuperMG's topic in Components & Upgrades
but they only have those maxQ versions... ZRT 4090: 930/1455MHz - 130W X-Vision 4090: 1620/2040MHz - 150W X-Vision not that good? -

SuperMG replied to SuperMG's topic in Components & Upgrades
Just get the ZRT cards then for the 4080 and 4090 please. X-vsion doesn't want to fix their Vbios. Only good X-VSION cards for that gen is 4050,4060 and 4079. -

Annihilator replied to SuperMG's topic in Components & Upgrades
want put a 4080 or 4090 in then, never again less then 16GB, even older games(FFXV) with high res pack need around 12GB, n there is no RT on in the game ๐ when the heatsink is too much(price) maybe will put the P5200 in the 7720 and then take the RTX heatsink for the m6800 ๐ -

I don't blame Intel for cancelling B770 at this point of the current GPU cycle with skyrocketing memory prices for consumers and inflated costs for VRAM. I just don't think it is viable right now. I would also redirect short term efforts to suck up all the AI $$ they can while they continue to refine and make substantial gains in the mobile market both CPU and GPU wise and introduce a serious architecture advancement with Nova in the fall. I'm in total agreement with every decision Intel has recently made recently (which is rare) and I think they could be the dominant hand held and mobile laptop force this and next year. Tack on Nova and their own X3D along with serious gains in MT performance? Yeah, things are looking good for Intel IMHO. They're hungry again and clawing their way back with a vengeance. Ironically, it is AMD who is stagnating at the moment as @Mr. Fox video from Jay lets us know..... No surprise here..... Nvidia, AMD and Intel are going where the massive profits are and that is all things AI and all things data centers atm....they are behaving *exactly* as I would expect them to. Like I've said since the old forums, corporations are NOT your friend. It is a transactional scenario each and every time. They offer a product you want at a price you will pay. You buy it. End of story. Now it looks like the 6000 series could slip into 2028 Memory prices are rumored to have a significant bump sooner than later SSDs continue to rise.... https://videocardz.com/newz/nvidia-geforce-rtx-50-super-pushed-back-rtx-60-mass-production-could-move-to-2028 Right now, if you're in the market for GPUs, RAM or SSDs, (in that order), it is not a good time to buy. Better to stalk the used market or as noted before, get a Microcenter bundle if you need new hardware. -

One more reason to make Garbage mode in modern games. NVIDIA GeForce RTX 50 SUPER pushed back, RTX 60 mass production could move to 2028 -
papjco32 started following Clevo p775dm3 - a couple questions
-
Hey all, I have Sager p775dm3 that is dsanke bios modded with 9900k and 32gb ram. First question is: The GTX 1080 in it under light loads will artifact as seen in the picture. If you reset the video driver using the windows shortcut it will come back. I can't get it to do it under full load, only light loads youtube web browsing office etc. Any ideas on what this could be or how to test? Second question: I bought a for parts EVOC p775dm3 and the seller says it doesn't turn on (no light, nothing). How is the reliability of these motherboards? I haven't heard anything bad so I'm guessing bad bios, wrong charger or possible lack of RAM during testing? I got it for a good deal so not too worried if mobo doesn't work. If you want to look at the one I bought: https://www.ebay.com/itm/206049322311 Thanks for any help, papjco IMG_0415.HEIC

The OEM NV-A 7720 heatsink is good for the RTX 4050, 4060 and 4070 MXM, good temps on both. Just need to cut the part where the GPU's VRM are. -

I asked the same for the ZRT VBIOS of the 4080 and 4090 asap also but I'm still waiting... Maybe you'll have to wait a month for the results -

Even the Quadro P5000 MXM in my Dell Precision turdbook has 16GB of vRAM. It is inexcusable that 8GB GPU options exist today. That should only be on the cheapest and lowest tier garbage-class products that are just one step up from integrated graphics. Nothing new is built to last the test of time or deliver maximum performance. Everything is designed to fail, and deliver structured performance limitations, to ensure a never-ending flow of cash. It is remarkably similar to the pharmaceutical industry and practice of medicine. They do not make money on healthy people or cures. Keeping people on meds forever, and follow up doctor visits to renew prescriptions, and creating new medical problems from prolonged consumption of chemicals that require more meds and more medical care is the gift that keeps on giving. They don't want anyone to be healthy because it is bad for business. PC and electronics hardware companies do not want to manufacture and sell durable consumer products that perform well. They want to sell garbage with a limited lifespan so they can collect more money on upgrades and product refreshes to replace the last generation of trash they sold consumers. Live to pay, pay to live. Just like the old bumper sticker... Ass, gas or grass... nobody rides for free. -

They will still offer gaming cards๐ฌ 8GB cards at premium. Perfect cards for coming Garbage mode in games. Yup, this is progress. The old 980 notebook GPU in my Clevo from 2015 have also 8GB vram buffer but with not as fast cores as the new and modern GPUs in 2026. 11 years of innovation. Heey, yeah I forgot this one from 2014 or 12 years ago with 8GB vram... NVIDIA GeForce GTX 880M This is pathetic. Not even mid tier cards nowadays can should have more than 8GB vram. AMD's RDNA 4 focus for 2026 will reportedly be one GPU, the Radeon RX 9060 XT 8GB In addition to the shift in focus to 8GB cards, the report notes that a 5-10% price increase for Radeon GPUs occurred in January 2026 for AMD's AIB partners purchasing GPU and memory bundles, and another price increase is coming soon. So soon that it could take effect as early as this month, or at the latest in March. -
Hi @Sephiran whatโs your laptop model? if is the x170km-g I believe all have the 4zone RBG keyboard, but I can be wrong. About the other one I have never seen it. For I can see on any seller they have mentioned that also works for both laptops X-170km-g and x-170SM, so maybe the difference will be on the vendor side. Mine is Origin model and it has the 4zone RGB keyboard that comes with 3 wide ribbon flex cables, the #2 RGB back light (1 slim and the other wide ribbon) it would not work on mine. Is better if you can contact the store you got it and check or ask whatโs the vendors name. There is so many.
