    I did get curious about formal Xfire/SLI + Lossless, if you set Dynamic framerate target then one might be able to mitigate some of the failings of that method of generating preferable framerates. It'll have to wait until I get my replacement motherboard but it would be an interesting experiment.

    You can get the BE200HMW, it works directly in our usual WLAN card slot without having to go through any adaptor. It supports WIFI 7 and Bluetooth v5.4. I have one on my M6800!
  5. DynamiteZerg
    That's great news! Does it mean we can use this CPU heatsink to install the MXM B cards that is offset to towards the centre of the card? Also keep us updated on the more expensive option when it comes out!

    ok so with lossless scaling you usually set the 1070 as the card the display is routed to while the 3080 is the 3d acceleration card . you can do this within windows by setting the 3d card in settings under graphics . i haven't done this on a laptop but on my desktop with 3080 ti 20gb and radeon pro ssg2 (radeon vii) with 32gb vram and nvme slots built in . i plug my display into my radeon pro and setting my 3080 ti as the 3d card . and in lossless scaling i set the card to generate frames as the radeon . its a weird thing and some games act weird but it works . there are youtube videos that can explain setting a laptop to do this better than i can lol

    The Thermaltake Core W200 was an awesome case. I have always wanted one. In the rare circumstance I could even find one they were so ridiculously priced that I could not justify the cost. There have only been a couple that I am aware of. Even monster cases like the Corsair 1000D Obsidian only support mini-ITX for the second mobo and SFX for the secondary PSU. The Phanteks Enthoo 719 also only supports mini-ITX for the second mobo, but does support two ATX PSUs. I had a Thermaltake Level 20 XT E-ATX Extreme LCS Capable Split Level Modular Gaming Cube Case CA-1L1-00F1WN-00 that I purchased in 2019. It supported dual ATX PSUs and you could add a second ATX mobo tray. Those are also nowhere to be found. It was not crazy tall, but it was so huge from front to back that the feet would not fit on either of my desks. I had to put it sideways on the desk. It was my favorite case of all time except for the fact that it needed a dedicated desk just for the case. It was so gigantic that I just could not accommodate it in my tiny home office. If I had a bigger office I would never have gotten rid of it. It was amazing. You might just want to go with a server rack setup with two 4U chassis units that each support ATX/E-ATX boards, ATX PSUs and full sized GPUs. Leave the lid off (for GPU power cable clearance if necessary) and leave an empty space between them in the rack. Maybe a couple of units like this: https://www.newegg.com/rosewill-rsv-l4500u-black/p/N82E16811147328?Item=N82E16811147328 and mount them in a rack. https://www.newegg.com/p/2BA-01UW-00010 A more expensive option (maybe not worth it compared to the Rosewill) would be two of these: https://www.newegg.com/p/2AM-006F-001D2 mounted in a rack. Silverstone also makes an RM51 5U chassis, but you would be looking at $1,000-$1,200 (at the least) for a pair of them and a rack. https://www.provantage.com/silverstone-rm51~7SLST033.htm?source=googleps

    I am pretty sure that the system will not accept 16gb sticks.

    I'm very happy to see a fellow community member using Lossless Scaling in the exact fashion I do. This is something I've been promoting for a while, and I'm happy to see someone else interested in using Lossless Scaling to relive the days of SLI/Crossfire. This really is the way to better performance in games if you're super hungry for those frames but don't want to spend anything on new hardware. We can instead use what we already have! Cluster computing to increase performance in games is awesome. I use a combination of Lossless Scaling + Apollo + Moonlight to use two machines to render a game. Being able to take advantage of the combined performance of 2 computers to run your games is awesome! As an experiment, I think I'm going to see if a Tri-SLI/Trifire setup is possible this way. As I haven't tried that sort of a setup yet. I got a Radeon 9070 XT and a Radeon 9060 XT from Micro Center just before prices got to skyrocket, so I was able to get some hardware at those sweet discount prices. The 9060 XT was for my dad, but I'll be installing the 9070 XT in my desktop sometime soon when I find extra time. Currently, my desktop has a Radeon 6950 XT and an RTX 3080. I'm going to install the 9070 XT in my desktop and use that as my new render GPU, then use the RTX 3080 as my frame gen GPU. I'm going to install the 6950 XT in my second desktop (which currently has a GTX 1060) and pass those frames to my second desktop using Apollo + Moonlight, then perform another layer of frame gen on that input using a second instance of Lossless Scaling running on this machine. BAM! Triple GPU rendering baby! With some really awesome newer monitors coming out, I'm going to want the 1000 fps experience in every game, which should be achievable through a triple GPU setup using Lossless Scaling + Apollo + Moonlight. I actually really want the Thermaltake Core W200 case for my next build I will inevitably do sometime in the future, but it seems it's nowhere to be found anymore. I may have to just stick with 2 separate cases. Does anyone know of any other cases that can fit 2 ATX motherboards?

    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.
  12. Annihilator
    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 😄
  13. SuperMG
    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
  14. Annihilator
    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)
  15. Mr. Fox
    The question is, "Are there really going to be massive profits?" or are they spending a lot of money on a gamble that may or may not 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.
  16. SuperMG
    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...
  17. Mr. Fox
    The least they could do is pretend they love us and say nice things while they are choking us and pulling our hair.
  18. Annihilator
    but they only have those maxQ versions... ZRT 4090: 930/1455MHz - 130W X-Vision 4090: 1620/2040MHz - 150W X-Vision not that good?
  19. SuperMG
    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.
  20. Annihilator
    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 😄 when the heatsink is too much(price) maybe will put the P5200 in the 7720 and then take the RTX heatsink for the m6800 😄

    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
  24. papjco32 started following Clevo p775dm3 - a couple questions
  25. papjco32
    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

    As the title says, based on your experience, what’s the best way to remove the sticky rubber coating/soft touch finish from surfaces like the palmrest or the laptop lid, especially on Alienware and Dell Precision models?
  27. SuperMG
    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.
  28. Annihilator
    😱😱😱😱😱 asked cicichen for a 7720 RTX heatsink, lets see what he will respond 😁 maybe he can optimize the CPU part too
  29. SuperMG
    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
