    If you are going all out (RTX 4090 Mobile + i9 13900HX) then I think you will be happy (assuming manufacturers can tame the heat). Just a few more weeks until we know

    It is going to feature dragon range. They will not be out until Q2 2023 though.

    It's crazy that a 2 "generation" old gpu (2080>2080S>3080>3080Ti) & 3 generation old cpu & (9900K>10900K>11900K>12950HX) [in laptops of course]: is only 37% away cpu wise despite having half the cores is only 21% away gpu wise despite being a older gen and lower class of card Not to mention these older laptops have much better OC room than newer ones (I can run 5.3Ghz on my 9900K in Area-51m R1: https://valid.x86.fr/9brbj6 but for 24/7 obviously I keep it stock because it already maxes out games at 1080p) That TS score is also of my Area-51m just sitting on my desk. FS score closes the gap even less. I skipped 10th, 11th, 12th gen laptops due to this. 13th gen looks like it'll finally widen the gap (but only at the very high end). the 4090 will be the only good gpu upgrade this gen 4080 will be an okay ish upgrade 4070/60/50 will be a joke (maybe 10-20% at best)

    You won't know until you try. As always backup original vBIOS in the event the other vBIOS doesn't work.

    Have you seen the chart on the first page? 4090 Mobile 80-150w 4080 Mobile 60-150w 4070/60/50 35-115W The TDP range this gen is absolutely insane. You will have a 4070 that can be 35w and 115w, the performance gap will be insane. Expect extremely varying performance this gen, it isn't even fair to call some of these gpus by the name they are with low tdp

    Some of us have seen things others haven't 😉 All I will say is...wait until after Feb 1st. Don't forget 4090 mobile has varying TDP from 80w to 150w. How do you know which TDP that TS result was from? [not to mention it is 4080 mobile NOT 4090 mobile] I specifically mentioned the "150w models". Of course a 80 or 90w 4090 will not beat desktop 3090. of course if nVidia decides to screw themselves and limit performance for launch then that's on them. But 150w (+25w DB) 4090 Mobile should match rtx 3090 if not beat 3090. 😄

    If 1-5 fps gain is worth it to you then sure. But going from 180w to 200w on rtx 2080 is barely any faster.
  8. ssj92
    I added some new pics from the reviewer's guide. If the i9 13980HX is really missing then that is a disappointment.
  9. ssj92
    Flashing Alienware RTX 2080 vBIOS from Area-51m R1 will boost TDP to 200w. However, unless you are benchmarking, it will probably not be worth it
  10. ssj92
    Yes it is, as a matter of fact, it will be matching a 3090 (at least the 150w max power variants with 25w dynamic boost) the 4080 is faster than 3090ti, the 4090 mobile is a underclocked 4080 desktop, so it's not crazy to see the 4090 mobile beat desktop 3090
  11. ssj92
    You would be bottlenecked by the x4 bus speed. Not to mention you would need to hack the drivers to allow SLI support (not sure it'll work due to optimus)
  12. ssj92
    My Area-51m R1 seems to be holding up really well. It has a rubberized surface. I know my M4800 & all previous Alienwares (M14x/M17x/M18x etc) all have palm rest becoming sticky but newer laptops (Aw14, 17, 18) seem to be much better and the newest gen (Area-51m) seems to be really good (mine is 4 years old and still feels perfect). We will have to wait and see what the newer m series has. My X series also has rubber surface it seems but it's too soon to judge it.

    See if you can follow this:

    Makes lots of sense if it was 2x 2280 & 2x 2230 but that will be disappointing. Right now you can do 2x 8TB in 2280 and 2 x 1TB in 2230 so total of 18TB.
  15. ssj92
    I'll believe it when I see it. nVidia has been quite strict on TDPs. Clevo didn't even have a 200w vBIOS for RTX 2080 (you had to flash AW vBIOS). If it's true it will be good news for all since you should be able to flash vBIOS using programmer still on other laptops
  16. ssj92
    I have not but a fellow aw member tested p5200 in m18xr2. It works once you solder on the bios chip and flash it
  17. ssj92
    I tried messaging crucial to see when I can order the 48gb so-dimms. about the 9tb thing...it sounds like typical AW selling their "certified" SSDs from the dell online store. Should be no problem using 4x 8TB NVMe SSDs but we won't know that until someone tests it. All four ports should be 2280 size I think
  18. ssj92
    My RTX 3000 is from Adlink, you will probably never be able to find it online unless someone from a company sells it. The HP RTX series are available on eBay and quite cheap. Not sure if they will physically fit as they are slightly larger than standard mxm 3.0b. There is a P4000 on eBay for $280 P5000 for $350 Prices have come down and those are also great options.
  19. ssj92
    If upgrading from 20 series to 30 series, gpu power cable is the same correct?
  20. ssj92
    @1610ftw looks like we are getting 48gb x2 (96gb) sodimms now? Crucial Now Has 24 GB & 48 GB DDR5 Memory Options For Desktop & Laptop PCs (wccftech.com)

    https://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeForce-RTX-4090-laptop-GPU-first-impressions-pit-flagship-graphics-card-against-GeForce-RTX-3080-Ti.683346.0.html This is straight up following nVidia's guidelines on how to show performance. We don't care about dlss 2 vs 3 and the performance improvement over 3080Ti. We want to see direct raw performance between 3080Ti & 4090
  22. ssj92
    3070 MSI Gaming Trio (I removed the whole top cover as I like to look at my cards. 3090 Kingpin & XC3. 2080Ti PNY Blower RX 6800 Reference These are the most recent ones I tried.
  23. ssj92
    I can confirm i have tested rtx 3070, 3090 rx 6800 to work in aga 4000 series also works
  24. ssj92
    The fact that every single manufacturer has this limitation or even less tells me nvidia / intel didn’t want manufacturers pushing their products. NVidia didn’t let clevo make a 3080ti mxm card and now even clevo is 100% bga. at this point nvidia/intel control what and how their products get used. will be very interesting seeing the AMD versions of the same laptops.
  25. ssj92
    Some manufacturers yes but no sure on AW
