HOW DO I UPDATE TO A Nvidia GTX 1070
Ryo Hazaki replied to Ryo Hazaki's topic in Alienware 18 and M18x
I placed the original CPU back in the laptop, and still got the same black screen. I've decided to ship the laptop off to a repair shop to see if I can get it repaired with some upgrades.- 106 replies

Its just a black screen. No beep codes. I've already took out the CMOS battery to attempt to reset the BIOS, same result. Tonight I'll remove the RAM to see what happens.- 106 replies

Well, looks like life wants me to hold on to this ol' laptop a little longer. Thank you @ DreDre2022 for the updated i7 CPUπ. With that said here's my problem. I installed the CPU and now the laptop screen doesn't show the OS. I've triple checked every connected, and even reinstalled the original CPU, and the same result. What did I do wrong?- 106 replies

HOW DO I UPDATE TO A Nvidia GTX 1070
Ryo Hazaki replied to Ryo Hazaki's topic in Alienware 18 and M18x
Hey everyone! Just wanted to give you an update on my experiment π§ͺ It seems like it didn't work out as planned π I tried using two 1070 cards but unfortunately, no success there. I even reached out to someone who was selling the G4 Quadro P5000 16GB N17E-Q5-A1 Video card, and they suggested reselling it if it doesn't work for me. Honestly, I've been stressing out over this and losing sleep π« So, I've decided to put my laptop up for sale. If anyone's interested, let me know! π I'm planning to use the funds to get myself an Area 51m r2 with a 2080. Super excited about that! π Thank you all for your support and patience throughout this journey! You guys have been amazing in helping this noob out. ππͺ- 106 replies

Nothing new to report @ the moment. Still doing some research, and was wondering if this would fit my ol' Alienware? NVIDIA Quadro P5000 16GB GDDR5 MXM Graphics Card - N17E-Q5-A1 Also my current CPU is the i7 4700MQ. Should I also think about upgrading this as well?- 106 replies

My apologies, I wasn't clear in my response, as I was indeed referring to the P5000. All of this is new to me. Where's the mind blown gif when you need itπππ- 106 replies

Wowπ² thank you for the information!!! I've never heard of these cards before. Do my eyes deceive me, this is a 16GB card? The seller suggests it only works in an Dell Precision 7710/7720. Has anyone successfully installed this card into an R1?- 106 replies

Ryo Hazaki replied to Ryo Hazaki's topic in Alienware 18 and M18x
@Jerryzago Just saw your latest message. I'll save my next driver installation progress and post it here. UPDATE: Also a quick update on the card refund process. The person requested I send it back, and that I'd get a new 1070 in exchange. I'm hesitant on it, as the last purchase I made for an SSD from China, the seller promised something an exchange, and disappeared from eBay!! I'm a bit disappointed that I can't play RDR2 as that was the main reason for attempting the upgrade. Got tired of getting 15 fps and game crashes after an hour on the 780m.- 106 replies

I took your advice and tried an older Nvidia driver for the 1070. **EDITED FOR UPDATED INORMATION** No crashes so far, on GR Breakpoint, and Jedi Fallen Order however, Spiderman says the driver is too old, NBA 2K23 is skipping. Also the temperatures are pretty high while playing as shown here: Also, I couldn't get RDR2 to run as I kept getting the following error:- 106 replies

ππthank you for responding. I decided just mod the Nvidia driver itself and leave NVCleanstall. I've been modding the nv_disp or nvdmi, with either of the following, depending on what's needed: NVIDIA_DEV.1BA1 = "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070" NVIDIA_DEV.1BA1.05AB.1028 = "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070" %NVIDIA_DEV.1BA1.05AB.1028% = Section036, PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_13D8&SUBSYS_05AB1028 %NVIDIA_DEV.1BA1% = Section036, PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_1BA1- 106 replies

I asked the seller more information, and am awaiting a response. I always wanted an Alienware Area 51m R2 with a 2080, however, its out of reach for me at the moment. If I could get this to work in this ol' laptop, I'd be over the moon. I saw where someone was successful in this thread: 18 R1, need advice for upgrading (noob here) Specifically the answer here: . If this is possible my mind is...π²- 106 replies
