@JadeRover @Aaron44126 Thanks a lot for the response. Im trying to use the NVcleanstall now (version 1.29) The Installation of the driver is failing. Do you have a recommendation on what template to use?

just found this, even stock a 4980HQ is faster then a OCed 4770K @ 4.5GHz(which is the same CPU like a 4930MX/4940MX just massive higher TDP / Boost clocks)... so maybe will even order a 4980HQ to get those extra fps. n found a 5200P for "cheap" maybe will take it... then would be no GPU bottleneck with the 4980HQ 🤩

I think your gpu is dead unfortunately 🥺

ok, tried a different game - looks like i never reached the thermal limit but i get a game crash when playing into the game, i do have a feeling the power delivery must be the issue at hand i think...

so far had no luck bypassing locks on MSI afterburner, i can only assume its to do with the vbios on the quadro rtx 5000, voltage remains locked on afterburner, if anyone has any ideas please let me know, i will look to try in a few games today to see if this is viable, temps seem ok, i have since used a grizzly thermal strip, my idle temp with increased fan is around 45c - 49c - under load around 76 to 82c, i may swap it out to grizzly thermal paste as im sure i was achieving lower temp with paste. i have since removed silicon pads and used silicon paste instead, i did however notice the wattage on the card must of spiked to 114watts under high load, so im now wondering if its the spike causing the instability at higher graphical settings. if this continues i may have to accept defeat and change the card back to the rtx 3000 😮‍💨

Well you could set time for pl2 to unlimited...

Hello, I’m new to this forum, I recently got a Dell Precision m4600 that I plan to offload NVENC onto. I use Arch Linux, and I’m planning on running a long term experiment of slowly upgrading and testing different mxm 3.0a3.1a GPUs on this laptop. I think it’s an easy way to hopefully prove that old powerhouses here still have a place and you don’t need a more modern laptop. That being said I’ve used this forum and the other 3 linked as extensive resources into what I plan to do and I plan to log it here. https://www.reddit.com/u/Daviboy_540/s/Moc9tZfwTc This laptop from what I’ve seen has mostly been used by Windows users, not digging, but with Linux there were some fringe cases in the other forums mentioning how Maxwell GPUs seemed to work with Ubuntu. With how well modern Linux has integrated with Proton, and Wine covering most windows apps I quit a long time ago. Linux itself should be more tolerant to Maxwell GPUs and maybe Pascal + GPUs should the m4600 power, post, and let Linux enumerate it. Optimus is also handled extremly well with Prime offloading for the GPU. Not making my case to sound like a Linux snob, I’m more or less adding a case to revitalize these old laptops and I think they had more potential. On my Reddit thread I will keep adding my own personal evidence of what I can get working. I will check here every once in a while if anyone wants to debate/chat/ or ask any questions.

Poor-quality = Trash Windows 11/10 is "unbelievable ... poor-quality software product", says new owner of GOG

More and more people see it the same bro @Mr. Fox Over a million Windows 11 & 10 users have already downloaded and installed this Linux distro Windows 11 KB5074109 issues: black screen, freezes Outlook POP, breaks Azure Virtual Desktop, LocalizedResourceName. Latest Patch Tuesday updates break Remote Desktop for some Windows users

Game compatibility on Linux and SteamOS takes another step forward with the arrival of Wine 11.0

Hi all, having power delivery issues I think, running on max settings for example on dead by daylight 2 with ray tracing enabled I should be getting around 55 FPS, shortly after the drivers crash then causing the GPU to show 0C in hw info. I will look to downclock and reduce the millivolts but MSI afterburner is a bastard to get the controls unlocked. Does anyone have any knowledge to shed on this ? Didn't have as much problems with the Rtx 3000

It is difficult for anyone to find something nice to say about Winduhz because it is not a nice OS.

Woaou, I missed this review on Notebookcheck. So they use the dual fans of my 2023 Pro model (with the RTX3050) on an non pro model with a 77wh battery. It is a total mess. And then the ArrowLake that needs at least 2 fans has the old 2021 cooling.... Nothing makes sense. Either you buy the top Pro version or you are in for a lottery. As I have written the cooling and performance of my RTX5050 pro is phenomenal.

Asus is Asus. I will see it before I belive it (always empthy). Prices will go up. On all SKUs. Those that want 16GB cards that can't afford xx80 will go either with 9070XT or 5070Ti. They will pick what they see first in the store (nvidia if they only want Nvidia). I expect more pressure also on 5080 cards. Picking your favorite brand and SKU model will be much harder forwards. But if you are in for new 16GB cards, you will get one. But it takes longer time than before. And more expensive. Same as I did with my 5090. Empty everywhere in the spring months but grabbed one once I had the chance. There will always come a chance you find what you need/want. It's Wccftech, but still. As I already pointed out... You get cards if you really want. Just don't buy from scalpers/scammers. https://wccftech.com/the-current-state-of-nvidia-rtx-50-gpus-our-exclusive-report-on-geforce-production-aic-supply-memory-shortages-prices-eol-rumors/ $3299 (ROG Astral)5080, LOL Edit. 4090 have offered an fantastic value over the years. But the vanilla 4080 was a huge failure for $1200. 480+420 EK rads in push and pull. Two D5 and EK-made EPDM rubber tubing. EK block for the Cpu. Fan for cooling the ram. AIO and aircooled cards. + loads of fans in the D1000 big black box.

HU's response to everything.....Nvidia clearly reached out to Asus and said, "change your statement" 🤣 Like I said, effectively discontinued can be the same as "highly constrained" HU did their due diligence. Maybe the Asus PR thought it was off the record? I can also see Asus not getting anywhere near enough 5070ti dies and/or packages (depending on if Nvidia still plans on decoupling the memory) and basically EOL'ing their own cards but other, smaller makers continue to offer them when they can too. This is not new for a company to walk back bad PR...... --------------------------------- AMD "working hard" to keep prices the same for their GPUs in 2026.... One of my pet peeves is always comparing prices of enhanced AIB models to MSRP. It is nails on the chalkboard to me. This applies to Nvidia and AMD. There will always be entry level models at MSRP, but models that are better built and with added features will always cost more....

@Papusan What are you running for a custom loop?

Not only Nvidia. Same with Asus... ASUS issues a third RTX 5070 Ti clarification and walks back the earlier EOL claim As long AMD have stock of 9070XT nvidia will try combat them. If the xx80 cards get same % price increase as Radeon card they will be even more expensive vs the 9070XT. Nvidia will still need xx70Ti in the stack.

P5200 didn't work (with M6800 VBIOS) on RGB-MB Dreamcolor screen. Maybe it'll work with the 3D cable and pure-eDP? I'll find out

What a deal this is for a HWLabs GTX480.

the erosion of our brains started long time ago when PDA's and Smartphone first arrived on the scenes over 2 decades ago.

My gram 14Z90T has shown that it's possible to get good performance with one fan and no excessive noise. It's unclear whether that is by accident or careful design but my quick look at a gram 17Z90T revealed that is easy to get things wrong. One mystery is why this Lunar Lake non-Pro gram 16 has two fans but was quite noisy when stressed. Are different teams not talking to each other or is there deliberate experimenting?

bcs here is more action then in the m6800 thread 😄 someone tried a P4200 in a m6700(will work in m6800 then too i think)? more power then the P5000 but only 8GB, but its ok bcs no RT anyway n at 1080p will be not be limiting any game(except FFXV with high res pack 😄 ) , they r really cheap to get, but only with clevo/msi bios, think wont work in a dell then with eDP?

The memory manufacturers won't suffer so much if the AI bubble bursts because they are avoiding ramping up production (which takes several years) in response to the current high demand. Their profits will suffer if there's a downturn but not as badly as if they were heavily investing in more production. They've been there before.
