    Yeah, after the 5090 Astral I’m tapped, and all the other small losses here and there messing around with 5080’s. So I’m putting these up coming parts on the BB 0% for 12 months, then I can slowly sell off my current stuff to help recoup. 😁 Spending $699.99 plus tax on ram is not smart. I know they are amazing sticks. And the “Want” is STRONG. lol I feel like if I go with those rams, I need the Apex. I may go with these! Also, what do you think about the new Strix Neo board? Is the Hero maybe worth the step up? I’m going to skip the Apex. Cutting cost on ram, and motherboard, allows me to go with a 9950X3D2 over a 9850X3D. I think that’s probably a smarter move. I want to stay at like $2,000 for CPU/RAM/Motherboard.

    Welp guys, I found out today why my AIO coldplate fused to the pure copper IHS on my 10900K. It wasn't purely because of liquid metal between copper to copper contact plates, it was that in addition to me running sub zero temperatures on the AIO (Masterliquid ML 360 Sub Zero). The cold served as a catalyst for the liquid metal to weld the 2 surfaces together. Don't use liquid metal for sub zero overclocking guys. The liquid metal leeches into the copper faster this way and then welds the 2 surfaces together. I didn't know this at the time and stupid me thought liquid metal would be the GOAT for sub zero overclocking. Nope, normal pastes are better for that.

    I set the max for all cores to 47x in BIOS. Then did this under-voltage:

    "0C80 = 3200, 0xA63 as 80 and 0xA64 as 0C"

    Try this: https://www.dell.com/support/home/en-ag/drivers/driversdetails?driverid=5ycy7 My m14x has antenna for this already so maybe I will try a card for that one. this one is for the older part number but give it a try: https://www.dell.com/support/home/en-us/drivers/driversdetails?driverid=4h54n

    The SIMG SB92XX one from Dell.com. It redirect me to the Alienware 2013 laptops download link. The software is WiHD but it states "Not detected". Not sure if I use the software correctly. It's a niche tech that no one used.

    I don't plan to spend the rest of my life modding bios so your cable will be needed for all systems except the ones I listed. Brightness control should work too on bios, I will see. This is all hypothetical. I will be quite surprised if they keep the x-bracket design.
  9. SuperMG
    Yes leaked VBIOSes or VBIOSes straight from TPU or official generic VBIOSes from Nvidia. These companies need to respect the new Nvidia specs and design too. So this is weird.
  10. ssj92
    What driver have you tried?
  11. ssj92
    This confirms what I heard during my A4500 testing from Aetina. ONLY nVidia has access to the vBIOS modding. The companies ask nVidia for vbios mod and nvidia approve or deny it. This is why at the time they couln't make me a non above 4g decode vbios, nvidia didn't allow. It also confirms my theory. These are all frankenmodded cards, nothing is official except the PRO cards. They literally wait for a leaked vBIOS or some vBIOS that allows them to make the mxm card work. It also means they do NOT have someone who can sign it.

    I just contacted them thru their sales email. I don't know if it's possible to chain as they use avast email protection, don't want to get the mail flagged as spam. X-Vsion's Blackwell X-bracket layout would be the same as the Ada and Ampere ones. I hope they didn't lie there. We'll see in the future. Well backlight mod is needed for other laptops! A must if you want to use your new RTX cards in dGPU. I'm happy to change my M17X R4 3080, M4800 4070 and M6800 4080 brightness lol, looks clean.
  13. SuperMG
    There's the 5XHG5 for M18X R1 and M17X R3 There's the 3W4MD for "M14X", "M17X" and 18 R1, 17 R1. The 60GHz antenna + cable part is: KVR0Y Receiver is: VIZIO XWH200 HDMI Couldn't find anything about the "M17X R4" card one. Yes the SIMG SB92XX is the card. It's detected but the software for it, doesn't detect anything.
  14. ssj92
    If my experiment works, M17xR3/M17xR4/AW17 won't need any backlight cables. Can you cc me on the email chain? I want to ask them some stuff too. I think we will need a new x-bracket design. All the blackwell pro cards from Aetina, PNY, etc use a super wide x-bracket hole layout
  15. SuperMG
    My Backlight mod v2 works on Alienware m17x R4 and also the 17 R1 120Hz. I hope they sent me a 5080/5090 for testing like they do with YouTubers. So I can get the VBIOS and upload it thru TPU or thru Google drive I bought like +10 cards from them, of course they can trust me. I'm waiting for their response, they didn't reply to me today when I asked them for a sample.
  16. ssj92
    Haven't tried any OC on 3080 yet. Working on too many bios mods right now Actually I have been looking for the card for M17xR3/M18xR1. Not sure if the M17xR4 is the same card. I see part of the card on eBay but don't see the part that connects to the wireless display. One of my goals is to get that too. Looking at the model, it seems you bough the WiHD card for AW14/17/18 not the M17xR4 one. From my understanding, there is 3 "generations" of cards. SHould be backwards compatible though?
  17. ssj92
    They should provide me a sample card if they want the gpu to work on all AWs. 4090 doesn't post on M17xR3 yet even with 4g decoding enabled. I am still working on it. RTX 4000 now posts fine eDP 120hz PEG on m17xR3 in full legacy mode. Working on UEFI port right now. I have a couple dell precisions I can work on too for above 4g decode but those are lower priority for me right now. I have no Clevos right now. See if you can get the vBIOS and send to me so I can confirm they actually have eDP support this time.

    Now that I have the water cooler and using it with the cooling pad, I can sustain heavy loads long enough to verify the stable undervolting of each core at fixed clocks the adjustment for stability has changed a bit... At 5.2GHz: 7 P-cores: -65mV 1 P-core: -70mV Almost the same for 5.1GHz: 6 P-cores: -65mV 2 P-cores: -70mV E-cores at 4.8GHz: 3 clusters: -50mV 1 cluster: -55mV I haven't had time to validate other clock speeds yet. This shows that, at least on my specific CPU, undervolting per core yields only minimal gains. On the other hand, undervolting the P-cores and E-cores separately (XTU) greatly improves performance.
  19. SuperMG
    Did you try to overclock the RTX 3080? Like +50MHz on the core and +100MHz on the memory By the way I got the WirelessHD SiBeam M17X R4/M18X R1 DMC card. DMC is enabled in the SBIOS but it's not detected on Windows and not detected in the SiBeam software. Is the SiBeam card called SIMG SB92xx COM3 on device manager? If so then the card is definitely detected but not in the software... I have both sibeam card 3W4MD and SiBeam 60GHz antenna. Do you have any experience on this?
  20. SuperMG
    No backlight support from them, they won't do it. It's prohibited like making a new VBIOS. Only my backlight mod can bring the backlight + PWM brightness control back. The DP/DP/HDMI/eDP is on the vbios of the Blackwell cards. I told X-VSION if I could get one for testing later. ETA is unknown. 4g decode could be a problem on other laptops such as Dell precision and some clevo laptops. As we know X-VSION and ZRT don't have 4G decode needed to work. Only the newest Aetina, PCP cards need them. These cards are very expensive so I don't think people will buy that for their laptop.

    exactly what bro @electrosoft said, my LFIII Pro with Noctua IPPC3000 fans in push/pull is a beast but im already itching when im seeing these crazy Noctua AIO results 😄 definitely added to my wishlist for a potential future upgrade. for now, im happy with my setup and just glad to be gaming again after months and months of RAM and GPU tuning 😛 CPU is STILL stock aside from the RAM tweaks, couldnt be bothered to OC it yet 😄
  22. Z_money12
    Thank you for the response, would I need modded 980m drivers as well

    His better bin did 8200 so he's looking for 8400+ so good luck. Sugi's 8800 binned unicorn is bonkers good. Also another reason I was hesitant over his delidded one for sale with F&F..... Tempting with the delidded heatsink and offset mount, but not for $800 and SP117. Seems like a good dude, though that loves hardware so +1 on that. Hmmmm, I might have to give the Noctua a whirl then. I've been using my LF II 420 for years now and it gets it done and has held its own against just about everything I've thrown it against so far but it's Noctua! I know Nova is going to be beast.... I'd really go with the G.Skill C26 from Amazon if you're going to be paying that much from BB for those or at least the sticks quoted from @Talon unless you have a crapton of reward points saved up or want/need to use BB credit instead. I also think the 9850X3D is the smart move too. Like you said, you're not into extreme OC'ing anymore. I think you've come back down to my level where I tune and apply a modest OC but everything I do is tuned around D2D stability. You still run custom water though which is nice.

    I decided not to do it. The seller told me, they tried doing r1 to r2 swap for 4k panel and r1 wouldn't boot anymore. I find that hard to believe since it's just a display panel and uses the same connector. Anyways I found a brand new in box area-51m r2 maxed out so I jumped on that.
  25. ssj92
    I have 3200Mhz 128GB Samsung DDR4. It's running at 2933Mhz now using default settings (only changed frequency in bios). Is there any way to try 3200mhz? I don't care about timings right now, just want to try 3200mhz and see if it works.
  26. ssj92
    Ah I shouldn't have bought 4090, oh well. eDP support as in bios AND backlight pins ? I mean companies advertised eDP for 4090 so we will see. I'll need a vBIOS dump to inspect if it's true. Above 4G decode is no issue now, I already am almost done implementing for M17xR3, will port over to other AWs in the future.
