The next generation of workstations, precision is becoming history. Wellcome PRO MAX , start saving money)))

Hello. It has a different PCIE ID but the same GA104 die. I tried to flash a 130W VBIOS from techpowerup but it didn't work. GPU not being detected so I had to revert back to the original working 60W VBIOS.

Looks like I am in the wrong country for that kind of operation, probably best to leave the third M.2 slot alone in that case. Rebuilding the Raider and turning it into a Titan is pretty crazy, must be a lot easier to source the needed parts in China! Interesting how MSI has a much bigger differentiation again between the Titan and its workstation version, biggest since the GT75/WT75 chassis.

Hey, Seller is not very professional as you had to force a paypal dispute to get an answer. Cards are different or just vbios differ? Because if cards are the same, and only vbios differs maybe you can flash it with ch341A & 1.8v adapter?

A true piece of art. Can't be much better.

💯old = reliable and stable / new = inconsistent and compromised

Soon we are in Christmas time 2024. Some will never be forgotten.

I will analyze and speculate on the issue of three fans in the cooling system of Max 18 in Part 6.

As you wish, I used OneDrive and added pictures. Within China, OneDrive requires VPN to function properly.

I've got an RTX 4060 MXM and it is not recognized in Windows, although BIOS definitely sees it. I have to figure out what is going on.

Is the laptop booting up fine though? Or it doesn’t even post with nvidia card? I have some ideas if it at least posts

Here we go. Old is Gold @ryan @Mr. Fox @electrosoft @Talon +++ A whopping 37% of Steam users' playtime in 2024 was spent on titles released eight or more years ago When it comes to our cumulative gaming habits, it's clear that the old reliables reign supreme....

Hi everyone! Does anyone know if there is a BIOS with better performance than stock for Quadro RTX 3000? This card is installed in a Precision 7530.

To restore the third M.2 SSD slot for Raider 18 and X18, not only do we need to solder the M.2 slot, but we also need to solder a few small electronic components around it; The M.2-slot component is easy to purchase, but I need to search for information about the several electronic components used around it; In China, there are private services available online - service providers replicate and fully restore the third M.2 slot, which costs about 400 yuan (approximately $55). The service provider even provides a complete set of services for changing Raider 18 to Titan 18, which requires replacing the entire C-side (including the palm rest, keyboard, and related body frame), cooling system BIOS/EC。 Titan 18, Raider 18, and X18, only the M.2 2280 slot near the GPU supports PCIe 5.0, while others support PCIe 4.0; The MSI dragon logo of X18 does not glow at all, and there are no RGB-LEDs in other areas.

Just wanted to post an Update, since I am in the same situation. On the M6600 the card will change form 10DE 1BB8 15CD 1028 to 10DE 1BB7 14A1 1028 for some reason, after modifying the driver nvdmig.inf the driver will install. you will be able to see both cards installed. However they have their own discrete outputs, the intel card will have the internal and external monitors and a "Phantom monitor will be on the P4000". The only workaround I found is to disable the Intel video card on device manager and you will able to use the external monitor (HDMI in my case) with P4000 for games. if you want to use it on the internal display you will have to use mirror displays instead on Extended. I am still playing with Nvidia settings on the control pannel to see if I can modify the display settings for the Phantom Display. Just in case anybody is in the same situation on 2024

Well, so far I am trying to boost the mesh by increasing 100mhz and 20mv steps and let it run an hour of y-cruncher component test for stability. One nice thing about using the P5800X as a boot drive is that since it does not use a cache it seems like BSODs do not easily corrupt the OS.

Linux need better gaming support. That would help people/gamers to migrate over from Windows to Linux. Core Ultra 9 285K is faster in Linux than in Windows

If anyone is still in the market for a 285k, Provantage has tray 285k's in abundance. https://www.provantage.com/intel-at8076806419~7ITEP9HR.htm Earlier this week they had ~ 1252 in stock and they've only sold ~54 of them, so they still have a healthy 1198 in stock and the price dropped a smidge to under $600. With the 285k in such microcode/W11 flux at the moment, it will be interesting to see where final performance lands around summertime. Besides gaming, I do think it is a very solid CPU all around and in most instances provides better performance than the 14900k. Still waiting on the 9950X3D and CES Nvidia 5000 series unveiling. Edit: They got more in stock today. Current inventory count = 1587. 🤣

Does anyone know the p/n for WWAN card in Precision 7740, along with all other needed parts for installing it in a non-WWAN 7740?

Ah good spot would be disappointing if it isn’t better than the Alienware M18 layout. Hope they are going away from the old 7000 series layout where the heat was concentrated at the top left. Even if it was performing fine users would complain about that/ get worried the system was overheating

M6600 for some reason doesn't like newer NVIDIA GPUs (some BIOS bug prevents it from working), but doesn't have a problem with newer AMD GPUs.

I have a M6800 & M6600 coming next week. Going to try RTX 3000 in M6800, was going to try 880M in M6600 but it sounds like it doesn't like anything newer than fermi? Is that true?

I recently bought myself the 4k 120hz replacement panel for my dell 7770 with a full hd display. Everything works perfectly fine but I can’t get the machine to pick up the 120hz refresh rate setting in the windows/intel/nvidia settings menus. Is there a way for me to activate it so I can use the high refresh rate panel at 120hz?
