  1. If this was our attitude toward all these older laptops, we would have not gotten anywhere in the first place. back in 2012-2013 era, everyone gave up on M17xR3 and M18xR1 saying they will never reach beyond 800M series. Here I am in 2025 with W7100 in M17xR3 (eDP) and RTX 5000 in M18xR1 (Dual PEG). Never give up 😁
  2. now this is interesting. Wonder if it'll help me run some cards on M17xR3 lol
  3. Someone posted A14+ for AW18 on the NBR forums but I don't seem to have it saved. I wonder if @Reciever may have a copy? But he also had the Ranger 17 R1 not the 18 so maybe not.
  4. Weird I matched all settings but still no dGPU showing up in IGFX mode maybe it’s because I’m on a12. I know there was a A14+ made on NBR forums but I never saved it
  5. I think we need to see more settings from your bios such as the pcie settings as well. Might be useful to post a bunch of pics from your bios (relevant ones of course). AW17 R1/AW18 use the same platform so they should behave almost identically with LVDS display
  6. Tried this in AW 18 but doesn’t work. When you select iGFX it turns off dGPU.
  7. I’ll try this later but it doesn’t make sense. you’re saying in iGPU only mode the dGPU shows up with that dynamic scheme option?
  8. I don’t remember about pascal but for sure RTX 2000 series and newer throttle
  9. I'm still curious if anyone with stock 980m SLI or 970m SLI motherboard has tested newer GPUS. It's a shame we can't use these newer cards in the haswell laptops
  10. I would be surprised if you can "feel" the "IPC" difference between a 4930MX/4940MX vs 4980HQ. A 4930MX OC to 4.3Ghz without any additional voltage. It can hit 4.5Ghz easily. 4980HQ is nice for Optimus since it has the extra cache but won't make a significant difference. I'd rather have OC 4930MX with 1866-2133Mhz RAM (32GB) vs 4980HQ with 16gb ram. Take it from someone who owns 10 laptops from Core 2 Quad to Ultra 9 275HX. 😁
  11. Modified vBIOS gave me code 43 unfortunately so idk if I did it correctly
  12. Yeah something about TDP issues with newer cards, so doesn't matter which GPU you use. Only other way to test is either increase the tdp to like 150w and see if it works or decrease it to like 90w.
  13. I use x-bracket from 680m I think or some 100w nvidia card.
