  1. Tomorrow is the release of many models, along with the 9th. Then you should start seeing more configs show up
  2. https://www.bestbuy.com/site/msi-stealth-17-3-240hz-qhd-gaming-laptop-intel-core-i9-13900h-nvidia-geforce-rtx-4090-2tb-ssd-64gb-memory-black/6532165.p?skuId=6532165 This one still has 2TB SSD & 64GB RAM yet it is $3,999.99. Do not base price just on one specific laptop sku. Once they're all out by Friday or next week we will have a better idea. There was some even cheaper than this. Looks like best buy took it down. I seen 3499 a few days ago as well.
  3. That machine is clearly overpriced. 2x2TB SSDs & 64GB RAM from OEMs are normally a rip off. Better to buy best cpu/gpu only and leave rest low end and upgrade yourself. I did that with Area-51m R1, bought my own SSD/RAM, plan to do same with m18. If you seen apple, they charge insane prices for RAM & SSD upgrade (although theirs cannot be upgraded). OEMs tend to be on the higher price as well
  4. A lot of people don't understand how strict nvidia is, especially with mobile products. OEMs can't just do what they want. After my A4500 MXM debacle I really got to work with a company to try and customize vBIOS and learned nVidia controls EVERYTHING. Simple change in vBIOS? Need to submit to Nvidia for approval and then validation.
  5. Told y'all 4090 mobile will be faster than 3090 (some even 3090Ti) The full 150w +25w boost models will be the best of course. Can't wait to play with one myself. Last laptop GPU I had was RTX 2080 (200w). Haven't had the pleasure to own 4000 series desktop GPUs but I had basically every 3000 series even 3090Ti so it'll be fun to get as much performance out of these new ones. These GPUs do better at higher resolutions, so QHD 165hz will be a good sweet spot
  6. The picture is from m16 not m18, but I assume they share a similar motherboard. We will finally find out next week though. Also, I find it crazy that most name brands such as Samsung, SK Hynix, etc. are only selling 2TB NVMe SSDs. Like...what?? Where are the 4TB drives and 8TB drives. Saberant has 4TB/8TB drives for awhile now, but Samsung still doesn't have a 4TB, crazy.
  7. I bought "1866Mhz" RAM (which has the 1866mhz sticker) but clearly it was a 1600Mhz RAM faked as 1866Mhz. Also bought on eBay.
  8. Taking a look at this pic, I see two 2280 NVMe slots, three 2230 size M.2 slots. Most likely 2x 2280 M.2 NVMe 2x 2230 M.2 NVMe 1x 2230 M.2 for Wi-Fi/BT so that's probably why it is "up to 9tb"
  9. AMD 7845 CPU performance. (Can't wait to see 7945 * 13980HX):
  10. The price isn't too bad. But it's m16 not m18, still gotta wait =/ Hope the 4090 doesn't take too long to release
  11. From what I've been told, expect to be disappointed in 4050/4060/4070 performance. 60w 4070 will probably be terrible performance. 4080 will be decent and 4090 will be good. nVidia really screwed up the 4000 mobile lineup with castrated bus width, low core count, etc. We should hopefully start seeing some numbers starting end of next week
  12. Feb 8th, but keep an eye out starting Feb 1st because some manufacturers may allow pre-orders.
  13. Nice. Looks like performance is similar. NVIDIA Quadro RTX 3000 Mobile video card benchmark result - Intel Core i7-4930MX Processor,Alienware 01W2J2 (3dmark.com)
  14. I agree, I have been using nvcleaninstall now but it can also be a bit confusing to people who have never used it.
  15. No. I ran aetina 1080 perfectly fine in aw18 and awcc is installed. also works in m18xr2.
  16. Could you do a firestrike and timespy run? Curious to see how they perform vs the adlink ones. This confirms my theory, I can put both RTX 3000 in my M18xR2 hehe
  17. Exactly, the latest V3 has a switch to help prevent this issue
  18. 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
  19. It is going to feature dragon range. They will not be out until Q2 2023 though.
  20. 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)
  21. You won't know until you try. As always backup original vBIOS in the event the other vBIOS doesn't work.
  22. 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
  23. 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. 😄
