Couldn’t find the same nearby and already wasted an hour trying to desolder it with heatgun or the soldering iron with no success, so I was like what the heck. No. It was there for a few years driving the external monitor, hence the desktop setup. Should be something like this, but still working on it.

Thanks! I will! Well, it’s in desktop mode, so to say. Haven’t put it together since the 1070 was installed. Now I’m working on making it a laptop again. Here are a couple of pictures and a bonus one of how I “desoldered” the resistor. https://imgur.com/a/bKX9tSW

SUCCESS!!! I can now run well above this limit, spiking at about 300W in Shadow of The Tomb Raider. Got 5~6FPS more @1600p (35FPS avg.) and overall much smoother experience. First section of the benchmark is ~245W from the wall, second ~260W and third ~270W. The 920XM is @3.5GHz 110W all core (up from 2GHz stock) and the 980m is @1263/2885MHz (1038/2505MHz stock) +50mV pulling 160~170W. Now I have to do a proper cooling to match this thing's capabilities. No pictures of the mod at the moment because I was TOO excited to see what happens and forgot. It's basically what everyone does - stack one resistor on top of the other. I used the same resistor. I'm more than happy at the moment. HUGE THANKS to everyone and specially to @JadeRover!

PM me a price if you don’t like this one.

Not sure if anyone got this, but after disassembly (and reassembly) the touchpad and the point stick stopped working, the keyboard was fine. They connect with the same ribbon cable, so it most likely wasn’t it. What turned out to be was this setting in the BIOS. After hitting “Apply” everything was fine.

I’m pretty sure that both use the same display connector. Why? Because both were fitted in the Dragon. Just to be sure you can compare the schematics: N201J4-L01 - WUXGA LP201WE1-TLA1 - WSXGA+ I’m keeping an eye on this.

Yeah, it is half way between DELL M2010 and Acer 9920 and I think a better laptop than both. You got a nice config! What made you sell it? On another note I think that you can upgrade the M2010 with this display, BUT they are unobtainable! Have you considered the MSI GT80? I’m not sure about the display connection though. Waiting to see how this will work out.

Do you know more about it?

That’s a great machine you got there. It was one of my dream machines. I have a few of its “cousin” - HP Pavilion HDX9000. For overclocking have you tried ThrottleStop? Version 6.00 should work. Here’s another great video about it:

From the exploded view it seems that they’ve cut the flat connectors from 3 to 2, maybe that’s the reason for the lane reduction.

I think that I have these, if you are still interested.

Price: €95 Condition: Used Warranty: None Reason for sale: Not compatible with my machine. Payment: PayPal Item location: Bulgaria, Sofia Shipping: Free to EU International shipping: Might consider, PM for price. Handling time: 2 business days Feedback: Bought and sold a few items around here. Specification: This is a standard MXM-A GPU pulled out of HP ZBook 15 G4 (so it would work fine with it). I got it for a project, but it DOESN'T support LVDS, so it's of no use for me. It was tested in DELL Precision 7510 with Optimus ENABLED (it won't work otherwise in this machine).

So, it works with reduced channel width (the 30pin)?

It’s for a machine I’m yet to do a mod for. That’s why I’m looking for “this must work”, rather than “this should work”. (I know that with MXM there’s no such thing as “must” until you try it, but at least to be as sure as possible) Whatever info I found about M2200 suggests Optimus is a must. M2000m was less explored (at least I didn’t found much about it), so I decided to give it a shot as well. M5000m/GTX 980m do work with LVDS, that’s why I find it strange that the smaller siblings don’t. EDIT: As for the HP black/whitelist it is hit or miss, 8570w was confirmed working with quite a few GPUs, but most newer ones require DreamColor display to work.

Today I’ve tested M2000m out of Precision 7510 - no luck. The backlight came on, but I guess that doesn’t mean much as the control for it might be the same between LVDS and eDP. No picture. So far it seems that the answer to my question is - DELL K2100m. Still researching that GTX 965m. So far it seems like it is a custom board, as I can’t find which Clevo it came from. Either they (GTX 965m) are soldered or MXM-B, no MXM-A.
