I had a similar problem with temperature sensor with HP Quadro P5200 in my P870DM. I resolved it by isolating SMBUS pins on the card and wire a small PCB with external, compatible sensor IC to the mainboard.

OK, problem solved - I had to isolate smbus on GPU side and solder to its data lines temperature sensor IC compatible with NVIDIA's MXM 3.1 specification.

Hi, I've just recently bought Quadro P5200 rev. D from HP with vBIOS chip on it. I want to place it in my P870DM with Dsanke BIOS, but laptop, even if it boots normally with screen on, soon sets fans to 100% and shuts down after one minute. I tried a couple of different vBIOSes, including MSI and DELL but the effect is still the same. What's intersting, on HP and MSI vBIOSes the HWInfo shows temperature of the card (but clearly not to the EC...). I saw that Prema was able to get this pair to work, but does anyone knows how? Well, if it would be easier I would like to just disable temperature reading for GPUs since I use my own fan controller with analogue temperature sensor (hooked up directly to the VRM).

Well, as far as it won't need a lot of work with terminal I can try it. I'm a refugee from NBR but thanks 🙂 @Csupati There is no BIOS that supports newer cards, I checked this first... @jaybee83 P180HM is the prettiest laptop I've ever seen, so I had to have it 😉 Well, another update - with HD8970M it doesn't even light up the screen and after one minute it shuts off, so no commmunication to KBC. It's sad, because W7170M's are very cheap...

Hi all. I recently bought Clevo P180HM w. GTX680M. I have heard that this is already the best GPU that will work in this laptop, but since I have a bunch of MXM cards lying around I decided to give them a try. First, Dell Quadro M3000M I use in M980NU - hang at the boot screen with beeps from time to time. Then MSI GTX970M - after boot screen it stops at black screen with blinking cursor. I have still Dell 765M after failed mod (I don't remember what I've done to it, but it shows as 780M in GPU-Z) and Dell HD8970M to try. I have also tried different thing - 680M in master slot and the other card in slave slot. Windows 7 displays GPU renderer error but suprisingly such a configuration works under W10. With basic MS driver for 680M and Nvidia driver for the second card I was able to use the latter as the 3D renderer. Both 765M and 970M works in this configuration (M3000M does not - hang), althrough performance is very disappointing - GPU utilization reaches about 70%, but FPS in games is around 15% of what it should be. Is there anything else I could try? Maybe Pascal? There are P106M and Quadro P1000M that I can buy and I also spotted Radeon RX580M or something along those lines on Aliexpress, but I don't want to waste money if they are not going to work.
