Annihilator

bcs im waiting for my replacement mainboard for the M6800 i started to shop some stuff for the 7720 to make it comparable to actual notebooks(except the number of threads the CPU can work with 😄) Service Tag: C9GP6H2 so u can see original configuration. Original Configuration --> planed - ordered - already done/delivered: Intel i7-7820HQ --> Intel Xeon E3-1575M v5 2x 8GB DDR4 2400 CL17 --> 2x 16GB Kingston HyperX DDR4 2666 CL15 nVidia Quadro P3000 6GB --> nVidia Quadro P5200 16GB 1x 512GB Toshiba XG3 NVMe --> 1x 512GB Samsung 860 Pro NVMe + 1x 1TB WD SN730 NVMe WIFI AC --> WIFI 6E DVD Drive --> UHD BD Drive Windows 10 Pro --> Windows 11 Pro upgrades for later: 1080p Screen --> 4K Screen nVidia Quadro P5200 --> RTX 5000 / 3080 / 4080 Stock Heatsink --> Cicichen RTX Heatsink

im happy when he only put a RTX heatsink on the original heatpipes from the 7720, 120W n still far away(always below 60°c.) from throttling, but the CPU part isnt the best, but its ok bcs still below 80°c. at full load

will cost 100 bucks.

ok, just noticed even USB ports doesnt work anymore, so think board is broken, just ordered new one... this means a bit of time for the 7720 and my old imac 12.2(27" mid 2011) want try a 3770 will work in it n putting the GTX 880M in it(3 heatpipe heatsink i have here since yrs)😇

now everything arrived, today the last 2 of the 2x 2x4GB kits arrived... time to bring the MXM slot back to life 😄 when will work out, will start the 7720 upgrade thread.... bcs the 2666MHz C15 mem arrived too, n watching a 2933 kit, maybe will take it n give a try, would be fab when it works.

i like ur frankenstein elitebook 😄

thx, seems it would wont fit, thats poop, maybe will find something other then 😕

noone? 😞

i really would like to do a shunt mod on the M6800, bcs this 61W limit is annoying, temps around 70-72°c.(n not lapped the heatsink yet bcs was out of 1k n 1.2k sandpaper) full load so think still 20-30W more possible for the cooler before CPU start throttling. need to check when open next time what for VRMs on the mainboard n how many amps they can deliver.

when it works let me know... need a bios flashback anyway but i not get it to put the old 1.15.1 files into the 1.40 bios container... 😬

MX-4 is really bad at direct-die i noticed(used too all the time before i got the MX-7), works better on CPUs with heatspreader, MX-7 is a whole new lvl, was really suprised by it. n i really dont get it, why 3x 6mm heatpipes instead of 2x flattened 8mm, thermal conductivity is the same possible slightly better with the 2x8mm bcs of bigger contact area on the base plate.

atm i have the 7820HQ, but when i able to run the P5200 finally in my M6800 i will do bi upgrade to the XEON + RTX 3080(maybe 4090, we will see what im willing to spend on it 😄 ) n atm i found a kingston 2933 2x8 kit, when working will take a 2x16 kit, n even seen gskill has a 2800 n a 3000 kit, maybe worth da try too... n when upgrading to RTX will take a 4k display, bcs otherwise the CPU would be a massive bottleneck n at 4k not really matters the CPU only has 3.9GHz

look, so no scam n 100% service, custom stuff sometimes not fit 100% like original parts, but most of those lil custom factories always try to fix it 🙂

im tempted to order the heatsink n put the fat heatpipes from the original heatsink on it... 🤪 edit, do u wrote cicichen bcs of the issues? i think he may will solve it

ahh think i got it, so the lower heatpipe doin pressure to the soundboard n bcs of that it doesnt fit?
