    Okay so the RTX A5500 is soso Worse to equal performance than the RTX 5000 Turing! Not even RTX 3080 LEVEL! Backlight mod works with the M17X R4. I tested it on the M6700, M17X R4 and even in the P775. Same results!!! HDMI (DP_C) doesn't work in the M17X and M6700 but works in the P775 It's not about the PCIe bandwidth as I tested with a PCIE x16 3.0 laptop. 8000 pts in TimeSpy (all) 22600 pts in firestrike (all) 160FPS in Heaven benchmark (M6700 and M17X R4) 235FPS (P775 wtf) ... Normally I should get 10000 pts in TimeSpy with the A5500 115W. X-Vsion told me it's a "132W" variant, that's a lie, the VBIOS has a max TDP of 115W. Very disappointed, don't buy the RTX Quadro Ampere from X-VSION!! Just get the GeForce ones, they perform better and normally. By the way, why the card is consuming 20-30W in idle??? Turing and Ada cards I have do 5-8W in idle

    Please check the v2 thread and yes it was tested in simulation then in an Arduino then tested the signals again in the factory. I'll test it tomorrow (hopefully) with a M4800 + RTX 4070

    Doesn't work. I tried that too

    I made an update in the backlight mod v1 thread, you can see there
  5. SuperMG
    So I tested the RTX A5500 115W with the last backlight mod v1 cable I had. It works in the M17X R4 eDP and Dell Precision M6700 eDP. So with the backlight mod v2 (PWM edition), it'll work too! DP_A works on M6700. DP_A on the M17X is the DMC Wireless DP to HDMI so I couldn't test. DP_B is HDMI on the card so it won't work in DP out. But DP_C (HDMI) on both aren't working... On the M17X R4 it detects the external HDMI but it does a "loop connection". The HDMI on the M6700 only works before the drivers initialize. I first tested the A5500 without backlight mod, it booted fine with the M6700 but with the M17X, there was 7 beeps. When I removed the custom heatsink and X-bracket, no more beeps and I could boot to Windows (no external display out). I do assume some interference occurred between the X-bracket and the motherboard, so I added some tapes and no issues (from now). The RTX A5500 performance is disastrous on both laptops, 160FPS in Heaven benchmark versus 190FPS with the RTX 5000. 3DMark TimeSpy 8000 points versus 9000 with the RTX 5000. Why is it that low?? Could someone help me?

    @ssj92did your A4500 from Aetina do 7 beeps? I tested the A5500 without backlight mod, First testing: 7 beeps with custom heatsink. Without custom heatsink (nothing for cooling), laptop can go to BIOS but nothing in HDMI. pc seems to boot in windows with startup sound but then after reboot, 7 beeps. RTX 4070 had no problem about 7 beeps, displays in bios, couldn't test Windows because no custom heatsink for it

    The 4080 and 4090 stock do 150W. The 3080 and 3080 ti do 115W stock. Soon I'll receive the Backlight mod v2 cables and I hope you'll be the first customer the next month!
  8. SuperMG
    Welp, I didn't receive anything this week but I got an update now and it says I'll receive the Backlight mod v2 cables on the 2nd June... I hope it's true... It's been in transit for 9 days
  9. SuperMG
    Unlucky for you. Didn't know about this. Might need to modify chassis
  10. SuperMG
    Then how did I make them fit? By the way HP cards are eDP friendly, you don't need to get the backlight mod v2 cable because the AETINA, ADLINK and PNY ones need that cable in order to display in the eDP screen.
  11. SuperMG
    I was able to fit them on 3 laptops. It's like the RTX 4070, needs small modifications since the core is like 0.4mm to the right.
  12. SuperMG
    I have one RTX 3000 HP available if you want. I have like 2 laptops with this GPU, on the M17X R4 eDP 120Hz red nebula and the Dell Precision M6700 Red Covet eDP 120Hz.
  13. SuperMG
    Actually it's 130W capped. Not 120W because I did a mistype. I did that because I didn't make my own custom heatsink at that time and the OEM one I had couldn't handle the 150W from a 4080 I had. The 4080 is in the M6800 with a custom heatsink made by Cicichen (because it was cheaper than making my own) and it works at full TDP. Max 154W registered on this MXM GPU. You can buy the new version later for 41€ on ebay.
  14. SuperMG
    The RTX 4070 uses the standard MXM layout and X-bracket layout. The A4000 is different, it's not standard MXM layout because of the core offset, which is in the middle. However a standard X-bracket will work on the A4000 like on the RTX 4070. For both layouts, 4070 and A4000, you need some new heatsinks because of their higher TDP and the different MXM layout.
  15. SuperMG
    By a little (2mm) Don't worry it'll work as I have an a5500 + R4 ready for the next week
  16. SuperMG
    There's always a solution for everything (unless we're talking about Nvidia vbios modding, it's impossible:/). You can do: Custom heatsinks, custom mxm holding, etc.
  17. SuperMG
    Or get the Quadro RTX A4000 for 350€. 16GB VRAM, RTX 3070 level. It's a DP/HDMI/HDMI/DP card. RTX A3000 12GB is 250€ but it's low TDP. (no backlight mod adapter included on both) For the Turing RTX 3000, I don't think there are 12GB modded VBIOS for it.
  18. SuperMG
    It's actually better to get an RTX card to work internally. Please find the eDP cable for this laptop or make one by studying the schematics. It's just wires and connectors, no chips in the cables.
  19. SuperMG
    Older Aetina cards didn't need 4G decode enabled in the SBIOS. Anything Pascal and above aren't compatible with the LVDS output. It's eDP/DP for internal. Yes if you got your external monitor working with "eDP" on DP_D, it's a good sign that the card displays using the Display Port protocol. If I was you, I'll find the eDP cable for your laptop and then study the output pins of the cable and determine if it can do 1080p, 1440p, 3k, etc...
  20. SuperMG
    It makes sense. It happened to me. Without 4G decode or without disabling the legacy OPROM (pure UEFI VBIOS), the GPU won't post and the laptop will throw an error and stay stuck in the pre-post. Aetina can sell individual but the price is very expensive and you need a SBIOS with 4G decode to use them. ZRT, X-VSION, ENBIK sells to individual, sadly their RTX 4080 and RTX 4090 have eDP in port D but it's disabled once the drivers are loaded. Only way is to override the EDID. Another way (which seems impossible from now), it's to find a VBIOS that has eDP enabled and doesn't disable once the drivers are loaded. The best cards without any issues are RTX 4070, RTX 3080, RTX A5000 (needs testing) and A5500 (needs testing) since they have eDP or DP in DP_D and they aren't disabled. Yes DP output works in eDP screen because the HPD data is in DisplayPort protocol.
  21. SuperMG
    Okay guys. The 4 heatpipes (2in1) heatsink for the M17X R4 has been shipped and so the backlight mod v2 cables. I'll test the A5500.
  22. SuperMG
    As long as the LCD input is an eDP signal then it can work. But it can depend in the dreamcolor boards. Someone needs to try it.
  23. SuperMG
    I'm curious. So his GPU has HDMI in DP_D then? If it has simple DP in DP_D, it should have worked. As "eDP" HDP are just DP signals. I think the RTX Turing will work (if all ports are DP/DP++) on the Zbook G3 17. Sadly not with the X-Vsion nor with ZRT cards 😕
  24. SuperMG
    Don't use Optimus and LVDS. No one has tried pure dGPU in eDP with a MSI and a new RTX MXM. Maybe this could fix some the issues you mentioned
  25. SuperMG
    DP/DP/HDMI/eDP. Same as the RTX 4070 MXM. Works perfectly fine on my M6700 and 7720. I had all the display ports, even the USB-C on the 7720.
