M4800 Owner's Thread
panda_zzz replied to unnoticed's topic in Pro Max & Precision Mobile Workstation
If we're talking about driver version 528, it doesn't yet support the 4060; that support was added in the next version, when the ability to adjust the power limit was removed. -
M4800 Owner's Thread
panda_zzz replied to unnoticed's topic in Pro Max & Precision Mobile Workstation
I'm glad it finally started working for you. Just to be safe, check the memory temperature as well, not just the GPU - on my 4060, the memory tended to overheat easily, unfortunately. This card really does get too hot. -
There's no place on the copper grid to solder another copper tube - where are you planning to vent the heat, then?

HP Elitebook 8570W - is it still good ? Hardware modifications
panda_zzz replied to GuitarG's topic in Custom Builds
The only problem is that there isn't a correct pinout for this cable yet. If you really want to use the new EDP display, I think it's perfectly possible to use an adapter board from the T430.- 351 replies

Dell Precision M4800 best GPU and upgrades?
panda_zzz replied to ncurses's topic in Components & Upgrades
No, not necessarily - there was also a model with an FHD EDP panel. To be sure, you need to check what kind of display is installed in the laptop. -
Dell Precision M4800 best GPU and upgrades?
panda_zzz replied to ncurses's topic in Components & Upgrades
There hasn't been any major news since then. The latest confirmed working upgrade is the HP T2000 MXM. I didn't risk using the 4060 from x-vsion - it runs too hot and has too much power. A 3050 6GB option from X-Vision has recently become available in MXM-A form, but I haven’t ordered it yet, although it will most likely work. As for displays, it depends on the connector on your motherboard - LVDS or EDP? -

Does the Clevo X7200 have a GPU whitelist for the MXM master slot?
panda_zzz replied to SuperMG's topic in Sager & Clevo
There is no whitelist for graphics cards. Older Clevo laptops often have issues running non-native graphics cards due to the address of the graphics card's temperature sensor on the SMBus. Possible solutions include replacing the sensor on the card, connecting an external sensor to the MXM slot's pins, or modifying the laptop's EC controller firmware. -

From an energy efficiency perspective, having Optimus is better than just DGPU, since it is still a laptop.- 351 replies

If we are talking about the 965m mxm-a format, then no, it does not have GM204. https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/geforce-gtx-965m.c2796 The differences from m2200 are basically in the frequencies.- 351 replies

Precision M6800 questions and upgrades
panda_zzz replied to Jers6410's topic in Pro Max & Precision Mobile Workstation
Well, we're talking about a specific laptop that has a specific processor socket for which there are no Xeon processors. -

And what Xeon processors are on the laptop socket g3? Just as I haven't seen any ECC memory in the DDR3 SO-DIMM format. -
Precision M6800 questions and upgrades
panda_zzz replied to Jers6410's topic in Pro Max & Precision Mobile Workstation
This is not a problem with the laptop itself, but a problem with the Intel processor. The 3rd and 4th generations do not work with modules larger than 8 gigabytes per channel. We tried this on different models and different laptops, and the result was the same everywhere. Even with modifications such as coreboot. It is rare to find mentions that someone has succeeded, but for some reason, there are no screenshots or videos to accompany these claims. -

16GB modules will not work. If you want, here is a working option with the m4800 model: -
I understand this, and the video BIOS of native cards is pulled directly from the system BIOS, similar to HP laptops, but there is nothing stopping you from adding the necessary video BIOS to the system if necessary and letting the laptop take the information from there instead of reading it from the MXM card's flash drive.

Hello. Unfortunately, I don't have the m2010 itself, but I do have its younger brothers, the m170 and m1710. Perhaps it would be easier to use not video cards from newer Dell models with their proprietary connectors, but to take the conditional mxm3 standard and build on that? Then the adapter board would only need to have a connector for connecting the matrix and for installation in the motherboard (and the mxm connector, of course). I would also like to note that in the T7600 era system BIOS, there were problems with using Nvidia cards newer than the 7*** series. A specific example is the Alienware m5500i-r3 (also known as FUJISTU AMILO) — with the older BIOS version, the new Nvidia cards did not work, but 3.5 gigabytes of RAM were visible and Radeon cards worked. With the later version, the new Nvidia cards worked, but there was a limitation on the amount of RAM to 2 gigabytes.
