  1. I was asking him for the M18X R2. M17X R4 and M18X R2 are on the same generation too.
  2. @panda_zzzhello. Is that an X-VSION card? What the heck. On this same forum someone tested the 4060M and it wasn't even detected. Even X-Vsion themself told me it doesn't work
  3. Yeah. If anyone wants a clean backup BIN/ROM backup for the AW 18 R1 2013, you can DM.
  4. @Tenoroonuh? Did you read before writing. That's exactly what I did to unbrick!
  5. Lol guys. It works. It was a BIOS problem. Glad I did a backup of my BIOS. Guys do not mess with Alienware 2011-2014 BIOSes! I'll use XTU for changing TDP. If you want a clean BIOS backup or an unlocked BIOS backup to unbrick your laptop using SOIC8 flash, private message me!
  6. Removed RAM = 2 beeps Removed CPU = 7 beeps Replaced the CPU with the original i7 4700MQ in hope to disable extreme edition, still the same blackscreen. But when I remove the CMOS battery, it doesn't beep 5 times, what?
  7. Hello. I got a new CPU, intel core i7 4930MX. It booted fine then I went to the BIOS and set the Extreme Edition to enabled. I didn't play with the frequency, I just set for long TDP 50W and short 65W. I don't understand why it doesn't boot, it just lights up, HDD spins but nothing on screen. I tried to reset the CMOS, by pressing the power button for 30 seconds. Help please.
  8. Hello. I might as well try to put an RTX 3080 16GB MXM card on it. I'm waiting for the seller's response about my order. I hope they don't cancel...
  9. Hello. I sold it to a friend instead. He's happy with it!
  10. They refunded both RTX 3080 and RTX A3000 (half refunded the RTX A3000, maybe they'll send a new one?? I don't think so)
  11. Not even a call from the delivery company? Also does your X-VSION RTX 3080 work on M18X R2? I read the topic of yours but I see no results. RTX A3000 60W works on M18X R2 and so in AW 18 R1. I need the 130W variant too
  12. I think there's something about UEFI for the BIOS. Most Ampere VBIOS and all Ada won't work on Alienware M17X R4 and M18X R2. For example, X-VSION Ampere work but not Aetina ones.
  13. Hello. The shipping was fast for the return. It says delivered to their place but the seller still haven't texted me yet. I think I'll probably get both cards in January:(
  14. Okay remember I was about to buy an RTX 3080 MXM. It's been ONE week and I still haven't got a single tracking number for it... Are they gonna scam me on this one too? Let's see. To be honest they only help when you are filling a dispute thru PayPal. Only pay with PayPal when they only accept bank as an online payment.
  15. Hello. It has a different PCIE ID but the same GA104 die. I tried to flash a 130W VBIOS from techpowerup but it didn't work. GPU not being detected so I had to revert back to the original working 60W VBIOS.
  16. Hello. I'm gonna return the RTX A3000 12GB MXM 60W because the seller sent me a wrong one. Once the seller will receive he 60W one, the seller will send me the 130W variant.
  17. If anyone wants this laptop. I'm selling it still! My price is 399€ without shipping fees. I7 3630QM, 12GB RAM, GTX 680M, Refurbished keyboard, refurbished motherboard, 1080p screen with 0 dead pixels, 128GB mSATA with OS
  18. Oh that shield. I transferred it to the new motherboard. My CPU isn't overheating. The thermal pad for the chipset is not dry but had some dust around it.
  19. Hello. What does the PCH have in common with Switchable Graphics display? Is the PCH the chipset that's near the CPU socket?
  20. Hello! Got the motherboard and it works very well! RGB finally works, status LED too The Quadro K3100M doesn't work anymore:( the die gets hot but it's not detected... I took my GTX 680M from the M18X R2 and put it in there. (GTX 680M SLI sucks anyways, even one GTX 680M is more efficient!) In conclusion, if you have the same issue as me, you have to swap your motherboard.
  21. Hello. It worked for the original 100W for the RTX A3000 (same die and Vram placements), so why not on this custom heatsink that's made to support and cool well the GTX 1070 MXM (120W-125W)
  22. This heatsink has a bigger coverage than the original 100W heatsink, so no problem on that. Also I just need to trim the heatsink fins to make it fit. No need to redo the mounts.
  23. Well it can cool 2/3 of the VRAM. I can just put some thermal pad on the 1/3 that aren't covered with a heatsink. I did make my RTX A3000 MXM fit for the 100W heatsink (left VRAM wasn't present on this 12GB model)
  24. Hey people. I ordered the RTX 3080 "130W TDP" from X-VSION again. Is this cooler good for 130W? It's designed for GTX 1070 MXM I'll use it on the M18X R2 instead
