    I tried navigating taobao for that cable too, it was a challenge. Interesting details @Vladka76 shows the laptop manufacturers lean to use universal display components (which is to our benefit) as @GuitarG says it’s just the HP end of the cable that’s the challenge. if I read that right we could possibly put a G6 screen into the 8570?
  2. Daedalus
    That’s a valid question, not sure without researching pinout. Maybe something guitarg could confirm. its worth a try though as it might open options. However a dell screen might be a pain to fit to Hp hardware
  3. Daedalus
    Yeah I saw that reading thru the other post, it makes sense now. would that negate the need for the dream colour board? Therefore a normal IPS screen maybe possible? I can find these cables but the board is unobtainable

    If i recall correctly, HP elitebooks dont have the traces in CPU socket to run iGPU (intelHD) so its MXM or Bust....... which does suck. i think the newer 840's have it, but the 8570W doesnt.

    Nice find. Most of this forum will have a bidding war lol. Good to see they exist, I was trying to find one for my upgrade. I’d seen an IPS screen too but wasn’t sure if even this cable would work with it. Doesn’t this need an additional DC inverter board too? However as you say @Vladka76 it won’t help us run the newest cards. I think RTX 5000 is the super best we can try with Dc.

    Cool will reach out to you via PM. has anyone found any links/suppliers for the cable to allow the Dreamcolour IPS screens to work with the mobo? I know guitarg was working on one.

    Nice work. Doing similar fan work on my 8570w. How does the mod see both fans? I see some (pavilion units) just split the fan feed on all wires and it seems fine.

    cool, was considering M5000M vs 980M upgrade for my machine hence the ask as i have LVDS. i mean id love a 10 series, but without DC (or equivalent) i'm stuck.
  9. Daedalus
    were both yours in LVDS screens? not that DC screens should behave any different.
  10. Daedalus
    Isnt the screen brightness adjustment (or lack thereof) a downside of the more powerful cards? Just LVDS screen on mine, although still hunting for a DC (or equivalent) screen. There was a chap on here (built ultimate 8770w thread) where he got a equivalent screen and the mythical 40/50pin cable too.

    Nice work. Did you manage to upgrade the GPU any further in your 8770w? I know @GuitarG in this forum has been trying many gtx and etc cards in his 8570w. I’m curious if there needs to be any custom vbios to make them work in the elitebooks? My 965m install failed at post, so now looking at 980m, I noticed you tried the m3000 with options for the m5000.
  12. Daedalus
    Yep, I’d previously tried the 965m "A" in my 8570w (i7-3940xm bios.71), but it never passed POST, however someone has managed to get a 965m working. I notice there are only two vbios for it on techpowerup. Wonder if it was due to GM204 in the vs GM206 in the 965m that I had the issue?
  13. Daedalus
    Thanks @panda_zzz for the correction. Interesting @erikmiskolin that you have a HP GPU board but dell vbios and it worked (until recently) are the dell vbios .rom more compatible than HP for our needs? maybe worth adding a sticky post somewhere on this forum for known working rom versions and card combo’s
  14. Daedalus
    Is the m2000m/m2200m which I think is the quadro equivalent of gtx 965m (correct me if I’m wrong) I had the no-post with my 965m card, suspected wrong vbios so no boot, didn’t even get the “enter bios” or hp logo displayed. so your not alone with the issues with the 8570w playing nice with cards. that said, guys on here have put 980m amongst other cards with a truckload of fettling and an 8770w heatsink. As I plan to run a 980m KBX very kindly did an image of his vbios, so we have a proven working 980m/8570w i think the best card we can throw in on a “normal screen” 8570w is a 1060m/980m (requires heatsink mod) if we exclude guitarg’s awesome work. That is in a different league
  15. Daedalus
    Just to add, on the heatsink adventure. Stumbled across this gem for the “A” heatsink but could be utilised on our hybrid solutions Heatsink heat pipe bridging in short it’s bonding the cpu and GPU pipes together. Appears to gain a 5 degree drop
