  1. Ah I need to find a way to port the swick M18xR1 module updates and microcode to M17xR3 bios. Also need to do same from M18xR2 swick bios to M17xR4. I don’t think those two got these updates
  2. What did you use to cut these safely? I may need to do same thing in m17x r3.
  3. Wait so did you modify heatsink at all? It fits into the slot even with offset core? Idk if this would work in m18x r2 or m17x series with their heatsinks
  4. I got mine I think around $640 shipped gaming is right on par with rtx 2060. Do you have a pic of which rtx 5000 you bought?
  5. Hey it's my video, LOL. There is no unlocked BIOS for this laptop. Only way to get it is to remove current PCH and replace with one that doesn't have boot guard. As far as I know there is no modded vBIOS for RTX 2080 unless someone finally modded it. You can undervolt it though. Go to my video above, look for my videos and look for GPU undervolting guide. I use my RTX 2080 I think in there. CPU can be OC using throttlestop, ALSO have a video on that LOL
  6. Did you have to modify heatsink to install this gpu? Have you made sure all components are properly covered with thermal pads? Too bad you're not in California, I was going to suggest meeting up and checking out the card. You could try it in your M18xR2 but it'll require heatsink mod and I doubt your M17x is the problem. I can try modifying vBIOS by lowering power and clocks but you can only flash using a programmer. Do you have a programmer? If not try using msi afterburner to undervolt the card and see if it helps with bsod.
  7. Just a follow up here, 3920/3940/2960/2920xm are fully unlocked 3840/3820qm have 4 additional turbo bins, but is same true for 2860/2820qm? finally is 3740/3720qm 2 or 4 turbo bins? Same goes for 2760/2720qm?
  8. My guess might be display could also be degrading and can’t keep oc anymore. im running 90hz on aw 18 and 85hz on m18x r2 using igpu. Could also be method used to oc. I like using cru
  9. How are you overclocking the display? Are you using cru? btw RTX 5000? Got any pics 😍
  10. Please do, I need to see if it’s a standard design or offset core 🙂
  11. Do you think you could have them send me a pic of the card? And Ask if it was bought from Aetina, PNY or ADLink?
  12. Let me know when you go through them how many DDR3L so-dimms you got. Maybe I'll take them all lol, kinda wish they were 8gb modules not 4gb though. @Tenoroon DDR3L is required for haswell+ notebook systems (unless you happen to have one that can boot DDR3 in haswell+ system), however sandy and ivy can use both DDR3L and DDR3.
  13. Colors perfectly fine. Tried on iGPU only mode, SG mode and even in PEG on my 2nd AW 18. All depends on lcd panel, each one is different
  14. Looking for: 980M Single or 980M SLI (non G-Sync 13D7) 970M Single or 970M SLI (non G-Sync 13D7) Located in US, California Please OEM AW & Clevo cards only, I don't want any of the ones from eBay that come from China.
  15. I stumbled upon something, it's mostly for M17xR3/M18xR1 running slightly newer cards but still got A4500 for M17xR4/m18xR2 as well whenever that card goes public. Added m17xR3 to list. Will make 980M post as well.
