Ok, thanks

think problem is, there is no other m2200 in the bios section from TPU...

So when i purchased the card i assume that the seller installed one of these two vbioses, so i check which one i have and install the other one but what if that still does not work do you know of any other vbioses that are tested to work on 8570W with 900p display

Guys my k2200m which was from vendor:hp vbios:dell died, so i purchased the quadro m2200m and the vbios is not compatible so im going to try to install a compatible vbios with ch341A programmer and i would like to ask does anyone have this gpu and can tell me if they know of/have a compatible vbios for my 8570W with lvds screen, thank you in advance

I have not used one personally. However, I haven't heard from anyone who seems to have an overall good impression. 😕 I mean, really the only options in this category are Dell, HP, and Lenovo. At my office, we have switched from Dell Precision to Lenovo P16 for dev workstations. I have not used of the Lenovos myself personally, though, either. I passed on the "upgrade" and I am going to be switching to MacBook Pro for work as soon as I can.

you over complicating things, install WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) and run any distro you like inside windows

I'm on a 10+ yr old Precision 7710 m5000m win11 setup. It's been great and no complaints and it is mint condition. Although I'm looking to replace the workhorse for a newer gen. Based on recent posts, is this Dell Pro Max a good system? Or is this something I should maybe not consider due to issues I'm reading about? Here is my use case I would need windows as the Operating system because I'm a contractor who needs a machine compatible at various customers. Although I'm most often in VMware Workstastion pro in a guest Win11 VM which VPNs to my customer network, so that way their VPN won't interfere with my Laptop's host OS and I can keep it isolated from my laptops host OS. I work heavily in Oracle Linux for installations and upgrading my customers Oracle products such as Oracle DBs, EBS Applications, APEX, etc. I guess I could have a Linux OS on the laptop as it's host OS and then use a virtualization software to install win11 guest VM. But I'd prefer to keep the laptop on windows I think, just so I'm not on some fringe edge setup. I don't need a big GPU, but I do like to game on Steam sometimes. I'm more an older GOG type though. I've always liked the Dell Precision laptops, but sounds like alot of weird issues right now with the Max Pro. I remember the 7x10 series had it's share of issues when they launched, but my 7710 is running great still after 10 yrs. I just want somthing newer that is fully supported. *My 7710 is not meant to run on Win11 for example, yet it is. If not the Max Pro, what is another next best? *doesn't even have to be Dell but I'd like it to be a professional series. thanks. Benny

think is depending in the quality of the imc from the CPU too, possible u need to put some mV extra on the imc when u want use full set of high speed mem with dual rank modules

ebay usa 😄 someone from dublin has a 2x8GB kit in ebay for 500 bucks 🤪

I am quite surprised you found some! After a full day of searching, I ended up finding some but the price is insane haha. Click if you dare https://thewizzcomputers.com/product/kingston-technology-hyperx-impact-black-8gb-2133mhz-ddr3l-1-35v-laptop-memory-hx321ls11ib2-8/. To be honest not even sure you can buy it because there's no purchase button. I'm still on the hunt! Someone was selling some on eBay (UK) until January for £25 but only 4GB modules.

I've seen a guy (not on here) claim that he got 64GB to work. According to him the only prerequisites were an i7 processor and the latest BIOS update. However, I bought a 64GB kit counterpart to my 32GB kit (so I could 'guarantee' it was compatible) and all I got was RAM errors and failures to boot. It does seem strange if the M6800 wouldn't be able to take double the official amount of RAM, as E-series Latitudes of that era could (or at least some).

i have 2x 8GB ripjaws V 1866 C10 in my M6800 n works perfect at that speed, they r same like hyperX, plug n play with the programmed speed. just waiting for my 4x 2133 to arrive, got a set for around 150 bucks + shipping, isnt cheap but will push the CPU limit another 2-5% up, depends which game 😄

Ah and what to buy. In general I would have said, wait and get the Ryzen 7 AI 450. They are sold cheaper than the poor Ultra 5 325/335 models right now with twice the multicore performance, and still great battery life (yeah those low power panther lakes gonna be astonishing in battery life still beating Lunar Lake by 20% or so but at actually less performance). The new H (or X) panther lake look great in benchmarks, but they will cost a fortune. Now the problem is - with RAM/SSD prices skyrocketing right now - prices gonna increase a lot more than expected. A lunar lake Gram Pro on offer or a 255H model on offer looks like the best choice. Especially if you want 32GB it's gonna be a steep price. LG sells the new gram Pro with 256GB SSD in the base models to counter prices (and likely betting buyers just swap with an older NVME they still own and put the cheapest junk in just for selling and getting the price right). Oh yeah - Geekbench 6 with AI fan mode: 2700/10600 vs in silent mode: 2700/10100 Geekbench 6 GPU gives identical 30500 approx (255h would have 15.000 multicore and 40.000 GPU score on default settings with LG gram more or less). So it hardly makes a change but Geekbench has not much sustained load. PL1/Pl2 set at 45w, and Speedshift EPP to 20 (setting it to 0 may gain some more points - but is really pointless as it increases heat a lot. On battery I run EPP at 180 usually, or 210 if I have scarce access to power.)

Oh I see, yeah the LG tools mess around quite a bit in lower settings. But it does make sense in a way. I locked everything in Throttlestop unter TPL to avoid LG messing around the values.

Any software licences do not get transferred, also all websites the login cookie is deactivated. Authenticator needs to be re-initiated. But all my registry hacks and modifications survice - it would take me ages to redo all of this which is needed to tame Windows 11. So it's still much faster. And a used windows pro license is like 10€ so I don't care and just buy a new used one. I don't really know how to deactivat a license so I can reuse it on another PC. Also I think not all licenses support this. Noise is very low. Actually I ran Passmark full test on Silent with fans off, and I still got 19,500 CPU mark result - so higher than an non modified. It fluctuates quite badly but 15-25w are possible passively cooled without the fans running at all. I really didn't expect the fans kinda mainly keep the base cooler but have not that much effect on the CPU below 5-10 minutes. See the results once silent once with AI fan mode. They are better than 155H intel inside the Gram. Passmark is pretty good estimate of real use except gaming. But it's quite obvious that the lower benches which are done later suffered from the heat build up (full run takes nearly 10 minutes) Cinebench is also with AI fan mode.

welp its been a while....and currently with the AI RAM apocalypse going down its even more difficult to track down specific sticks.

I'm also worried about physical damage. The "normal" behavior for when a GPU upgrade causes fan misbehavior is just that the fans will not turn on, report 0 RPM, and will behave when manually adjusted with a tool like this. (I seem to remember usually hearing about this when it comes to AMD GPU upgrades, though.)

This is an insulating tape. Most heatsinks have copper for the core. The core has some electronic parts around it that they might come in contact with the copper heatsink and short or even destroy the GPU itself. Leave it as is. For the record 980m used to have problems with the vrms, not the GPU core.

Hello, sounds like maybe the fan connector got damaged as your fan still works when powering it externally. How did you test it, you plugged 5v on the + and - pins ? Did you remove the fans when upgrading ?

This is something I would like to be able to do if I change computer. Do you have any software with a single licence which needed to be transferred? If so, did you release the licence before moving the SSD and then reapply? The need to do this probably depends on what hardware fingerprint the licence system uses. How much fan noise are you getting at 40W? I want good performance with minimal noise. LG refunded my money for the Arrow Lake gram 17 (not Pro version) and I'm wondering what to do next. (i) Get the gram 17 Pro if the price is right; or (ii) get the Nvidia version which is known to have a better cooling system (but this is likely to have a substantial price premium); or (iii) get another non-Pro gram 17 if at a good price and modify the air vents for the fan plus the power limits; or (iv) wait for the Panther Lake models to first appear and then be discounted. LG seem to have had some muddled thinking while configuring for both Arrow Lake and Lunar Lake. I'm currently away from home at the moment so thinking and watching the prices.

Hi Everyone, I am looking for 2in1 Air-Water heatsink for P775TM1. If you have one and not using anymore or willing to sell please contact me. Mostly from EU. Thank you

This is the 14" gram so no room for two fans. The dynamic power limits are changed in response to the chosen fan noise setting. I'm a little puzzled why it showed 23W for the PL1 dynamic limit when I captured that dature because it's currently showing only 12W for the normal fan setting and 28W for the high fan setting.

Where on Earth do you purchase this from? I have looked all over the web! Specifically, I'd like 4x8 for 32GB.
