It'll be worth it! I'll test and if the temps are so good for my RTX 4070 then you should buy! It's a new design, adapted for the new RTX at 120W TDP, did you see the picture?

Or you can get the 135USD, 3 heatpipes pure copper heatsink from Cicichen. I wasn't successful with undervolting and downclocking an RTX 4080 150W so I preferred to get a better heatsink for it... Mine M4800 heatsink is already shipped and I'm waiting. Also my backlight mod v2 package was lost during transit and I don't know if the manufacturer will remake new ones...

Hello, is there a battery inside? -
Alienware M17X R4 MXM upgrade for eDP 120Hz.
SuperMG replied to SuperMG's topic in Components & Upgrades
The only frankenmod vbios are for RTX 4080 and 4090, the rest looks like retail. Yes, only the A3000 from X-VSION works, maybe an early vbios for this one or just a special one without any 4G decode. I mean... Who's gonna pay 2k for an A4500? When you can have a 3080 or 3080 Ti MXM for cheaper? Plus they support eDP on the DP_D. Also no one tested the RTX Quadro Ampère and Quadro Ada in eDP, maybe these cards will work without any issues? Could be a false information: Maybe the iGPU doesn't want to allow cards that support 4g decode and does "conflicts" with the mux switch? I tried the RTX 4070 in UEFI no legacy OPROM in the M17X R4 and without the backlight mod cable. The laptop doesn't do any 8 beeps but there are no LED status either. So I think the MUX switch was waiting for the backlight but it wasn't there so the laptop was stuck without any beeps (tried it for 20s, GPU barely got warm, not very hot without the heatsink). Usually the laptop would beep at his first 5-6 seconds of being powered on. Does anyone have the Parade's MUX Switch schematics so I can confirm my theory? -
I get 270-280FPS with an RTX 4080 150W and i7 4900MQ bruh and 190FPS with an RTX 5000 (RTX 2080 100W) and i7 3940XM... How much do you get for FurMark 1.37?

I already told this won't work. The BIOS is so wacky and strange, it'll accept max GTX 680M or HD 7970M in the master slot. Clevo made the worse bios ever for X7200, D900F and P170HM... Anything new won't work. I already tried on the X7200. For some reasons the Maxwell cards in master slot work for Clevo M980 and X8100.

ExpressSlot uses less bandwidth than the MXM slot. I do not recommend any eGPU configuration as you need an external power and your desktop GPU will get severely bottlenecked by the bandwidth. mPCIe is faster than ExpressSlot by not a lot too. MXM slot = 2.0 x16 SLi in use = 2.0 x8 Just get a Clevo X8100 instead.
-
Anything newer that's plugged in the master MXM slot of the LVDS laptop won't work. GTX 770M, 780M, K3100M, K5100M, 880M aren't working too! Yes you can use eGPU from the ExpressSlot but the speed is at PCIE 2.0 x2, it's worse than the slave MXM slot which runs at x8. For some reasons, the X8100 accepts GTX 980M, M5000M, 780M, etc...
-
No you can't do anything. I asked for modders to find the solution for that for the X7200 but no one answers, it's a lost cause. I was able to do HD 7970M (green PCB, no audio) + RTX 3000 and it worked. I was losing a bit of performance maybe because my CPU wasn't Overclocked.
-
You can't D900F and X7200 have issues with their bios. There's no EC problem and no whitelist. Just a weird Phoenix SecureCore BIOS... I gave up and I'm selling the X7200. The best way is to do AMD HD 7970M 1.2 blue PCB in master + GTX 980M in slave. Even the Alienware M17X R3/R4 can use Nvidia Quadro T1000, Pascal P4000/P5000 in the master slot with an eDP screen.

He updated the design again, he did every improvements. It costs 135USD to purchase. The heatsink made the GPU lost like more than 20C degrees by going from 2 to 3 heatpipes with a 55W TDP GPU and it's easily compatible with 120W with adapted adjustments. 3 heatpipes is what a 110-120W GPU uses normally. (Can depend on the core dimensions as well)

Alienware M17X R4 MXM upgrade for eDP 120Hz.
SuperMG replied to SuperMG's topic in Components & Upgrades
If the RTX Turing works then the Ada will work too. That's usually the testing I do in eDP, to know directly if the RTX Ampère and Ada will work or not. You can try it yourself. I don't want to disassemble existing systems. I have the standard 3 heatpipes heatsink so it's going to be very hard and I need to sell this red nebula 120Hz RTX laptop too, sorry. -
Needs to add the "spiky" dissipation plate on top of the heatsink and it'll be perfect. I don't see any adjustments with the RTX inductors, maybe he didn't do that yet.

No. I did bought an RTX 4070 but it's for the M4800. I didn't get the shipping number yet. Well I busted the myth of RTX cards in 120Hz in the Alienware. Works like on the M6700 120Hz. I'm trying to mod the heatsink because one of the inductors doesn't fit correctly yet... Some people said it won't work because the mux switch is too old for the RTX... I sold the 3080 (DP on DP_D) as I needed money for the 4090. -

SuperMG replied to SuperMG's topic in Components & Upgrades
But you tested the RTX 5000 in SG with Optimus!! That's the difference! I actually sold every cables I think. Maybe try it in the AW17 R1? Dell precision? Optimus and pure PEG is super different. I saw on some threads that the RTX cards won't work in the 120Hz...
