Alienware M17X R4 MXM upgrade for eDP 120Hz.
SuperMG replied to SuperMG's topic in Components & Upgrades
I had a 3080 in a SG and I was getting 9100 score in TimeSpy, The same card with the same settings, got me 11500 in dGPU eDP. Even on my RTX 5000 Ada with iGPU on, I was losing 10-15% performance, Dell Precision 7780. eDP is preferred because you can upgrade to better displays (not in M6800) and it's in DisplayPort standard with full dGPU performance. dGPU > SG -

Yes but not recommended. -

No they don't have backlight pins. -

I found the MUX switch schematics, it was in the M17X R4 schematics. The MUX doesn't require any backlight signals in the input. Maybe the screen directly communicates to the laptop about the backlight not being on.. The MUX is just a basic DisplayPort Mux which works in desktops and laptops. For the A4500. Yours is from Aetina which needs 4G decode to be enabled in the SBIOS, otherwise it won't post. They can potentially work in the newer HP and Clevo laptops if the 4G decode is present. X-Vsion sells very cheap A4500 and A5000 both are working without needing to have 4G decode to be enabled. The CEO showed me proof. The ReBar and 4G decode were disabled in the SBIOS on the GPU-Z screenshots. Same for the A5500, which is the one I bought. 7424 CUDA cores, DP in DP_D, 16GB VRAM, 115W VBIOS. I'll test it in the dirt cheap Alienware M17X R4 32GB GTX 680M I bought. I'll upgrade the screen and LCD cable to eDP one and use the backlight mod v2 cable. Sadly I didn't receive yet the LCD eDP cable nor the backlight mod v2 cables... -
Did you try without GOP/UEFI partition of the GPU?

Hello. Did you try M2000? M2200? 965M cards on it? They can work because the K2100M is Kepler 2 which is a newer structure and it isn't compatible with my Clevo X7200 in the master slot but the K2000M is...

Do you have 16GB DIMMs? If the BIOS works and the RAM too then I'll flash
-
No I don't run, I wait for others to test it.

So it's a Prema mod one but modified? Clean ME region? EDP compatible I suppose, it says 120hz on his tweet

Hello. Where did you find this? What module was updated/edited in UEFI tool? Thank you

So with HDMI in DP_B, I can output to DP thanks to the DEMUX from MAX? There's a DEMUX + DP Redriver. Max doesn't state any HDMI in and no dual-links too 😕 -

When is the ETA to see which video port is which video signal output? A to E ports. So I can test them with my VBIOSes. Very important for DP_D I bought a Quadro RTX A5500 from X-VSION. It has simple DP in DP_D and can work without having 4G decode in the SBIOS. I want to know if the DP_B is really an HDMI or a DP... -
Tell him this for the P570WM: The only mods I did, was to get the Prema BIOS, make a backlight mod cable FPC for RTX, add the RTX 4090 MXM and make a modded custom heatsink. Can he come to this forum please? I need his BIOS for the 64GB RAM!! Clean ME bios of course. Normally the X79 and X58 chipset support 16GB DIMM per slot. But the BIOS limited them to 8GB DIMMs.

Finally the new RTX MXM cards will work in our laptops!

Do you have any benchmarks that prove the point between them? A5000 (3080 115W) and A5500 (3080 Ti 115W)? It's 550USD vs 650USD... I forgot, is your Pascal VBIOS in UEFI or Legacy only?
