    Only thing to note, the “Alienware” text isn’t compatible. R3/R4 use different cable for the AW text. Everything else is compatible.

    So it’s on a black screen? The source is 1080p 60hz or less?
  3. ssj92
    I highly recommend finding the 120hz 3D panel because it’s much higher quality and you can use better GPUs such as P5000/P4000 or even RTX 3000-5000. Right now I’m working on getting 4090 to work. I can easily do 4.0Ghz on my 2920XM without any additional voltage. p5000 will give you 2x performance of 980M in games.

    If the OSD says HDMI IN when you plug it in then it should work.

    You'll be happy to know I just released a BIOS mod for this that allows up to 980M/M5000M to work in LVDS PEG mode or P5000 in eDP 120hz PEG mode. (up to RTX 5000 is working on the next version I will release). In SG mode you are limited to DX11 so most GPUs will work but be stuck in DX11. Also my BIOS let's you OC 2920XM/2960XM to your hearts content straight in the BIOS.

    Have you tried a different GPU? What GPU are you trying it with?
  7. ssj92
    It is 3200mhz ram. SO right now it's running 2933mhz which is downclock. I want to try 3200mhz.

    HDMI IN works for me on my eDP 120hz panel. Last GPU i tested was WX7100. Haven't tried 980M/P5000/RTX 4000 yet, but if the AW OSD drivers are installed it should work. try a different hdmi cable. Some cables, the head is too thick and the plug doesn't go in deep enough to the hdmi in port.
  9. ssj92
    Yes modified drivers is required for any laptop not using stock configuration. You can use nvcleaninstall to help with that

    Try this: https://www.dell.com/support/home/en-ag/drivers/driversdetails?driverid=5ycy7 My m14x has antenna for this already so maybe I will try a card for that one. this one is for the older part number but give it a try: https://www.dell.com/support/home/en-us/drivers/driversdetails?driverid=4h54n

    I don't plan to spend the rest of my life modding bios so your cable will be needed for all systems except the ones I listed. Brightness control should work too on bios, I will see. This is all hypothetical. I will be quite surprised if they keep the x-bracket design.
  12. ssj92
    What driver have you tried?
  13. ssj92
    This confirms what I heard during my A4500 testing from Aetina. ONLY nVidia has access to the vBIOS modding. The companies ask nVidia for vbios mod and nvidia approve or deny it. This is why at the time they couln't make me a non above 4g decode vbios, nvidia didn't allow. It also confirms my theory. These are all frankenmodded cards, nothing is official except the PRO cards. They literally wait for a leaked vBIOS or some vBIOS that allows them to make the mxm card work. It also means they do NOT have someone who can sign it.

    If my experiment works, M17xR3/M17xR4/AW17 won't need any backlight cables. Can you cc me on the email chain? I want to ask them some stuff too. I think we will need a new x-bracket design. All the blackwell pro cards from Aetina, PNY, etc use a super wide x-bracket hole layout

    Haven't tried any OC on 3080 yet. Working on too many bios mods right now Actually I have been looking for the card for M17xR3/M18xR1. Not sure if the M17xR4 is the same card. I see part of the card on eBay but don't see the part that connects to the wireless display. One of my goals is to get that too. Looking at the model, it seems you bough the WiHD card for AW14/17/18 not the M17xR4 one. From my understanding, there is 3 "generations" of cards. SHould be backwards compatible though?
  16. ssj92
    They should provide me a sample card if they want the gpu to work on all AWs. 4090 doesn't post on M17xR3 yet even with 4g decoding enabled. I am still working on it. RTX 4000 now posts fine eDP 120hz PEG on m17xR3 in full legacy mode. Working on UEFI port right now. I have a couple dell precisions I can work on too for above 4g decode but those are lower priority for me right now. I have no Clevos right now. See if you can get the vBIOS and send to me so I can confirm they actually have eDP support this time.
  17. ssj92
    I decided not to do it. The seller told me, they tried doing r1 to r2 swap for 4k panel and r1 wouldn't boot anymore. I find that hard to believe since it's just a display panel and uses the same connector. Anyways I found a brand new in box area-51m r2 maxed out so I jumped on that.
  18. ssj92
    I have 3200Mhz 128GB Samsung DDR4. It's running at 2933Mhz now using default settings (only changed frequency in bios). Is there any way to try 3200mhz? I don't care about timings right now, just want to try 3200mhz and see if it works.
  19. ssj92
    Ah I shouldn't have bought 4090, oh well. eDP support as in bios AND backlight pins ? I mean companies advertised eDP for 4090 so we will see. I'll need a vBIOS dump to inspect if it's true. Above 4G decode is no issue now, I already am almost done implementing for M17xR3, will port over to other AWs in the future.
  20. ssj92
    Try looking for a older version of HWINfo
  21. ssj92
    The M15x is not cursed by an Insyde bios. You can use literally any 970M/980M even G-Sync Clevo models and it will work. i have a G-Sync Clevo 980M in my M15x, no mods needed besides INF.
  22. ssj92
    This BIOS works for any M17xR3 regardless of configuration. Up to 980M is supported on LVDS PEG mode. Up to P5000 is supported on eDP (120hz) PEG mode (I fixed RTX 5000 as well but that will be in a future bios update). Up to RTX 5000 works in LVDS SG Mode (Optimus) but limited to DX11
  23. ssj92
    If you are not overclocking a 920/940XM then 150w should be enough. for 240w, in order to use it at its full power, you need to remove the center pin. also m15x has a hard power limit for gpu so honestly, try 150w for now since it just works
  24. ssj92
    Honestly if they can sign that vBIOS then they know someone in nVIDIA or they have a leaked tool. Which is good for us because we can make more vBIOS mods all modern 4090 have DP_A or DP_B for eDP. I checked like 15 vBIOS’
  25. ssj92
    I edited all the legacy ROMs not just the first one. Either way nothing is guaranteed until we have a signed vBIOS. Only then can we do testing. I made 400 bios’ to make RTX 5000 working, it wasn’t done in one shot. if 4070 is working , 4090 should work too IF the vBIOS is properly signed. The complete eDP path was ported over.
