  1. Not worth getting these cards. No more DP_D. The cores are big and maybe more heating than Ada. Stupid design that makes our custom heatsinks "obsolete" unless we drill the holes for them but overheating could happen. 0% eDP pure PEG compatibility unless I do a flexcable mod that I'll never do unless someone gives me 500€ for it lol. DP_B to DP_D thru hardware mods, without soldering and then it'll work with eDP maybe... Why did X-VSION lie about the design... I don't understand that. Wish we could fix the DP_B non-PnP issue with the EDID override and the 4080/4090 will work perfectly.
  2. https://www.x-vsion.com/product/mxm-embedded-module-rtx-5080/ @ssj92The 5080 is available for 1600USD!!!! 2600USD FOR 5090?? WHAT Design is different. Why did they tell me it'll be like the previous ones?? Thankfully there are screenshots of GPU-Z. I could only find the RTX 5090 which is the 98.03.5C.00.88. And oh boy. It's eDP in DP_B!! WHICH MEANS... it'll act the same as the RTX 4080/4090. Also there's no DP_D so it won't work in 95% of the laptops out there. So the best card out there is the 4090 for us with EDID override or RTX 4070/3080 Ti without EDID override. Miscellaneous: By the way, I tested the DCB reader software for the RTX 3080. It says DP + HDMI on DP_B but it doesn't work. Only DP_C (HDMI port on the M17X but somehow the software states as DP/USB-C) and DP_D (DP) work. VBIOS is 94.04.35.00.21
  3. I spoke with Janepa and he did both hardware and software ways. So it's very difficult for anyone to try. For X-VSION 5080/5090. I asked for the VBIOS and it's been 8 days since they replied to my emails. Their last email was I have already submitted your request to the company for approval I will reply to you after confirming I just wanted to see the VBIOS before purchasing. Yes they don't give them away for free to testers... Either they are in vacation (they didn't inform me) or they blocked me like ZRT and I can no longer purchase from them? (Hopefully not). I hope there's a fix for the DP_B port. Because it's a non-PnP data. Yes Windows device manager shows "TWO screens". One non-PnP (error 43) and one PnP (internal LCD EDID override). If we could fix the DP_B to be PnP then we can use the external DP port with the drivers. Or only edit the VBIOS DP_B part. Switch eDP to basic DP and test the VBIOS. I hope the security doesn't take in account the one port of the DCB! I'll also receive in 1-2 days my XWH200 WirelessHD receiver for the M17X R4 DMC card
  4. EDID is just a script that executes at each startups. We just want to use back the DP_B, that's the annoying part, that's it literally it. The rest is usable. Could try on the clevo p570wm. It has a big chip, 64MBit and there are some space left.
  5. Hello. Didn't you say someone in this forum could change the DCB route from the SBIOS? (Ivy and Haswell?) If so... We can even tell the SBIOS that the eDP is in B instead so we don't have to do EDID override for the 4080/4090. Which means the DP_B out will work too! Again, Edid override works in all systems. Dell based systems too. Universally on Windows 10 and 11. Without it, we can no longer use the GPU's drivers and it'll display nothing on every ports. Only issue is we lose the DP_B output because it's non-PnP.
  6. Hello. What's the P/N of your Sibeam DMC Wireless card in the M18X R2?
  7. Yep as I knew it's a Nvidia drivers issue 100%. Yes laptops only want DP/eDP data to display on the eDP DP_D display, that's it. X-Vsion told me that some "motherboards" they tested, the drivers don't throw an error 43 and don't set the main display to non-PnP in DP_D mode. DP_B could display only if there are no drivers + LCD cable disconnected. Yes we need drivers to display more than 1 display thru DP and HDMI out. The EDID override is handy because it removes the error 43 on the GPU's drivers and allows display in DP_A, C and D. Without EDID override, you can't use the GPU's drivers in windows.
  8. Yup. Like on Clevo and Dell Precision too. Windows only blackscreen when drivers are present
  9. Yes I can go to BIOS with the RTX 3080 and RTX 4070 with the backlight mod v2 in dp_d Because of DP_B, the drivers is packing and setting all displays to error 43 non-PnP
  10. Yes A works but B doesn't (since eDP is on B and laptop's eDP is in D). Only DP_A, DP_C and DP_D are working. Yes BIOS screen works on all the laptops I tested. I guess they don't care if it's DP or EDP in D
  11. I asked them and I'm waiting for X-Vsion VBIOS and I'll use the software to parse the DCB data.
  12. @ssj92Hello. Did you check the VBIOSes of like let's say 5 of 5080/5090 laptops? If so, is the eDP set in DP_D or not? This could give us an idea if X-VSION/ZRT VBIOSes have eDP in D.
  13. No. It's: RTX 4070/4080: X-VSION Backlight mod v2: my ebay listing Custom Heatsink: eBay Cicichen Thermal paste: PTM7950
  14. I saw in the schematic there's a direct connection between the MXM to the DP MUX to the DMC. Here is a list of Dell P/N https://www.hscott.net/a-60-ghz-phased-array-for-10/ I mean if you're the guy who ordered a 120Hz eDP Alienware with DMC thru Dell back in the day, it should work with the MXM card because the iGPU is disabled.
  15. Yes I use the KVR0Y antenna, it's for M17X R4 and it fits in the backside of the top lid. So this is strange the M17X R4 and the 17 R1 are using the same DMC card. But they are using different mux switches. M17X uses a DP MUX: DP to DP to send the output to the DMC. The same MUX it uses to drive the eDP signal. Meanwhile the 17 R1 uses a HDMI MUX: HDMI to HDMI then to a HDMI Redriver and finally sending the output to the DMC. Does the SIL-SK63100 chip interpret the video input as DP++? I think that's what it does. So it means the RTX 3080 I installed can work with the WirelessHD in DP_A
  16. I have the SIL-SK63100. Waiting for the XWH200 to come and I'll test
  17. The link is on the V2 thread I made. You can buy multiple for multiple clevo laptops.
  18. Well first of all you need the backlight mod v2 cable. Secondly Cicichen sells them on ebay for 165USD and your upgrades are complete!
  19. I got an RTX 4080 MXM to work on this laptop with the backlight mod v2 and a custom heatsink from Cicichen. The temps were excellent and performance too. The 4080 is a big improvement over the 2080 in terms of performance but this MXM GPU costs like 800€ alone. You can get the RTX 4070 for cheaper, for 500€. They are brand new cards with 1 year of warranty from X-VSION and ZRT. The max CPU you can get is the I9 9900K/KF CPU or the Xeon E-2286M (modded CPU). The Xeon is the cheapest option. The I9 9900K/KF are like between 150-200€. Meanwhile the Xeon one is below 100€.
  20. Hello. I got the RTX 4080 and 4070 to work in the M6700 in eDP without iGPU. In UEFI with legacy OPROM disabled. DP and HDMI out are working, it depends in the VBIOS DCB Yes embedded MXM RTX cards display in eDP with my backlight mod v2 cable. It also fixes the issue with the ADLINK, PNY and Aetina Turing cards, where these card don't display anything on the eDP display.
  21. PDF instructions updated for v2! Complete tutorial: https://drive.google.com/file/d/12J9CSd7BccNmFtcskdBwuiTa_AJhyyZG/view?usp=drivesdk
  22. If you can buy the fan (CPU or GPU?) + heatsink screen assembly + the bottom case today, sure why not. I also have the RTX 3000 MXM, could do it for 130€ alone. Buyer wants to pay 430€ in the next week for the whole R4 I was about to strip. Let me know
  23. You can search on ebay and message me. Just type Alienware M17X R4 FHD 120Hz screen. Edit: someone is interested into buying the whole laptop
  24. It won't work because of the X-bracket offset. You need to contact Cicichen on ebay for that. Or you can buy the AliExpress one and drill holes to match the X-bracket offset, if it's possible. The backlight mod v2 is needed for all Clevo laptops using MXM and eDP screens. So P870 series, P775 series and P750 series. You can buy 2 for 2 MXM cards/laptops. Compatible with Ampere, Ada Lovelace and Blackwell GPUs from ZRT, ENBIK, AETINA, X-VSION, etc
  25. It's on ebay, I have the whole red nebula set, a working keyboard, a R4 GPU 100W heatsink. Ok for UK, it can be a bit expensive because it's outside of the Schengen. Yes I think you can swap for yours LED. I never tried that. I got the whole laptop used and complete. All the parts are working.
