Looks like Alex finally got it fixed. - Today

I found the answer myself: you can just ask the guy to make you a 30 series one, and he will 🙂 Only vendor on TaoBao I could get to do it, somebody else complained about copper prices, others said they don't have heatsinks in stock anymore 🙂

I have no idea about the support on the P750... but I would expect it to work??

I stand corrected. This must be "new" for this generation, first I've heard of it. Typically, one of the drive slots has PCIe lanes attached directly to the CPU, and the others all go through the PCH, so this is not a surprise. Though I can't explain why Dell numbered them the way that they did (assuming that this is actually the reason behind what you are experiencing).

Dreamcolor Display from HP ZBook 17 G2 into 8760w?
loopster replied to loopster's topic in Components & Upgrades
As expected, removing the lid switch magnet from the display bezel solved the issue of the Bios lock-up when the screen was closed. -
Hi bro, do you still have the updated Origin stock BIOS? I have an Origin laptop as well. I'm done fiddling with the XMG BIOS and just want to see the Origin logo in the startup again. 😁

I have the Pro Max 16 Plus which came with a Gen5 drive. Something I discovered by moving the drive around is that one of the NVMe slots is faster than the other two. Physically it's numbered as the second slot although it's numbered as 1 in the UEFI since the UEFI numbering starts at 0. The included drive, which is a Samsung PM9E1, will reach 14500 MB/s in that slot but only around 12500-13000 in the other two.

Alienware M17X R4 MXM upgrade for eDP 120Hz.
SuperMG replied to SuperMG's topic in Components & Upgrades
No. I did bought an RTX 4070 but it's for the M4800. I didn't get the shipping number yet. Well I busted the myth of RTX cards in 120Hz in the Alienware. Works like on the M6700 120Hz. I'm trying to mod the heatsink because one of the inductors doesn't fit correctly yet... Some people said it won't work because the mux switch is too old for the RTX... I sold the 3080 (DP on DP_D) as I needed money for the 4090. -
Brother, if i shunt mod too to 180w limit it will artifact too? I just want more performance on core not vram oc, your artifacting is vram related?

Alienware M17X R4 MXM upgrade for eDP 120Hz.
ssj92 replied to SuperMG's topic in Components & Upgrades
They're different but also similar. For example, 980M doesn't work in SG & PEG in M17xR3/M18xR1. Even Optimus has issues, when I saw RTX 5000 working on such a old platform I knew eDP would work too as long as the card vBIOS/Physical card itself supported eDP. Now I am curious of trying rtx 4000 or 5000 in M17xR3 eDP. If it works in M17xR4, it might work in R3 which would be the fastest card tested so far. So you don't have any eDP cables left for yourself to test 3080 or 4070 in M17xR4? -
Quadro P4000 Mobile Oc vbios. Working and tested.
ssj92 replied to Ralph's topic in Components & Upgrades
That's awesome. being able to change TDP on Turing Quadro should help lift performance quite a bit. I have a P4000 in my M6600 in Optimus mode so I can flash it in windows but I also have a spi programmer. Also have a tesla p6 but that card is special, changing anything in its vbios causes it to code 43 -
i discovered all because i like to make the jump to a RTX 4060 or 4070. but really i cant allow me to waste money since its difficult to make a few USD in my country so i need to be sure to have a stable working GPU. the GT60 its my main system today. i have boardviews and schematic for it to make any type of modification (taking care of no making wrong things). just the troubles you mention i cant allow them since i use external displays and its bad to get the cooler at 100%
-
if you like to just download RWEverything and with the RTX 4060 connected, check what value you have in the register 0x80 (gpu temp), if you get a value like FF in that register is that who is making the fan go to 100%.
-
and about the video output, probably exist a method to override the own hot plug detect coming from the EC and just making it go directly to the GPU (skiping any type of screen control of the touchbar)
-
Knowed GT60 EC registers : CPU Temp (0x68) - Variable Value (auto refresh) GPU Temp (0x80) - Variable Value (auto refresh) note : if you make use of register 0xC7, disabling temp sensors (02 Value) you can make static values from CPU TEMP and GPU TEMP registers. FF value Can exist in GPU TEMP register if the GPU Sensor isnt accesible with the default SMBus ECFW address (Fan goes to 100%). Cooler Boost (0x98) - 02 (Disable)/ 82 (Enable) Integrated Webcam (0x2E) - F4 (Disable / F6 (Enable) Power Mode (0xC6) READ ONLY!! - 40 (Battery Power) / C0 (AC normal power) / C1 (High AC or Hybrid Boost Power) Shift Mode (0xF2) - C2 (Green) / C1 (Confort) / C0 (Sport) Battery Charging (0x40 and 0x41) - 00 00 (Not Charging) / 8C 0A (Charging) note ; both registers can stay in 00 00 until battery decreases under 95% OR its not under Hybrid Boost state (higher load), to prevent discharge rates due to short-charging percentages) Unknowed Registers : ? (0xC7) DANGEROUS REGISTER!!! - 00 (Always/Default) / 01 (prevent battery report to EC. can prevent BD-PROCHOT pull up (800MHz CPU Throttle), DISABLE battery current limit in battery mode (<- This can burn Battery cells) and disables CPU and GPU Temperature Reporting. / 03 (Same as 1 and 2 Value) note ; very dangerous register. dont use it or take higher risks. my own report about EC registers. after further own testing, C7 dont disable battery sensors so isnt dangerous at all. but in msi models like the GT72 making use of register C7 can be dangerous because in that model disables battery throttling sensors.
-
so a primary fix to make fan working good is just making use of EC register C7 to value 02 (this disables all temps and throttiling sensors to the EC) and after write register 80 and put a value range between 0x01 and 0xFE , register C7 makes all temp sensors registers being freezed and register 80 its just the GPU temp register. so if we freeze sensors with register C7 and while GPU temp register is freezed we put a fake temperature value. maximum speed of fan can be avoided. the problem here is you lose VRM protection sensor and BD-PROCHOT sensor
-
from i know since i have the schematic for GT60, the entire problem of the RTX 4060 (for cooler fan and for video outputs dont working) come from the SMBUS, the machine dont see it as a faulty GPU. the problem is the EC dont "finding" the temperature sensor datum and about video outputs, since the internal conection between the X-vsion 4060 and the motherboard matches. hot plug detection and control of the outputs comes from the EC of the machine and the EC tells the gpu when it can enable output and when no. remember GT60 have a touch button to power off screens on the touchbar (and it includes the video outputs of the GPU)

electrosoft replied to Mr. Fox's topic in Desktop Hardware
Cost per performance is grossly in the 270k's favor vs both the 9950X3D and 9950X3D2..... Hey, at least MSI didn't angle it to the side like Sapphire did with the Nitro+ 9070xt introducing a needed bend to work in an already fragile connector...... -------------- I am on Intel's side with this one. Just like GPU optimizations where we sometimes have a clearly slower GPU like the 9070xt sometimes hanging with even the 5090 in some instances due to a lack of optimizations along with being optimized for AMD. Even if they went back to monolithic, that doesn't mean games couldn't be optimized to target the subtle (and not so subtle) nuances of each chip and quite frankly just in general. Too many sloppy ports not putting in the work till after release if at all.... Matrix is the sweet spot and I agree. WIth the WVP2, it gives you a sense of safety and monitoring both visually, audibly and within HWInfo. The wired shutdown function if desired is also nice. I do like seeing the little fan icon start to spin.... 5090 is clearly a beast as is vs 4090 and with the Matrix vBIOS it just extends that quite nicely. I do tend to run at stock during the warm times because the 5090 can quickly turn my computer room into a sauna just like the OC'd 4090 and 3090ti did. Plus WoW and FO76 rarely cap out the 5090 especially FO76. Who would want to DDOS notebooktalk? That's odd........ - Yesterday

I have the monster!. Its a great laptop so far especially with its performance, build quality and its features but be very careful if you want to make upgrades to it. The 3rd fan wire on the 2nd heatsink is pretty fragile even after removing all of the screws of it. Even with my prytools i was unable to unplug it without breaking it but i still remove it enough to install my old SSD in the 2nd slot, Bad design choice on a premium laptop imo. The OLED panel is awesome for gamers and content creators, Sadly with all OLED panels they're very reflective in sunlight but worth it. The Vapor Chamber is very good and does its job well. The default performance mode is pretty toasty in certain games but enabling silent performance mode in the BIOS makes the GPU runs at near its full wattage on balance mode and makes the CPU runs cooler and less noisy fans without much FPS lost than in performance mode. You can always play around the settings in custom mode to your likings but i havent had the time to test it. You can undervolt with HX CPUs after updating the BIOS but again i havent test it.

It's a PNY Quadro RTX 3000. Yes DisplayPort output is working normally.
