  1. well that's really weird? Did you tweak anything?? Cause every other person that tried PNY RTX3k on AW 17/18 reported heavy throttling Same happens with RTX 3060 12GB, but to a lesser extent (reduces core & mem frequency accordingly and not only mem frequency as the PNY RTX3k) I've never seen any Pascal card (1060 / 1070 /p3k /p4k/p5k) throttle on AW18 / 17. Don't know about 1080 / Px200
  2. Hi, HP RTX cards DO NOT THROTTLE on Alienware 17 or 18 But Aetina/PNY RTX 3000 throttle a lot (usually RAM is capped at 200Mhz or so at full load)
  3. hi, thank you. I already got schematics, I'd like to get the boardview πŸ™‚
  4. there's no point using SLI / Crossfire cards anymore. One is more than enough. Fan control can be tricked on dell / alienware via hwinfo or speedfan. Unlocked bios is not necessary but I strongly advise to flash it as it will give you hidden possibilities
  5. Lets hope it works, as soldering requires some skills and any wrongdoing could short the MB, or even worse kill it completely
  6. hi, yes it should work ok. But R1 is picky (as m17x R3). Best is to favour 7970m / 8970m / R9 m290x without enduro vbios. Just to be sure...
  7. Yes AW18 ans M18x are lvds But m17x r4 and AW17 have edp options πŸ™‚
  8. Will most probably work on: - Alienware M17x r4 and 17 R1 with edp screens - dell m4/6700, m4/6800, precision 7710 / 20 - all Clevo lineup ranging from p771zm to P775tm (X170 may work too) - msi gt72, gt73 series - Hp zbook g1 to g6, elitebooks 8770, 8570 - other whitebooks or derived laptops with mxm
  9. We all thought that RTX cards only worked with optimus enabled laptops. With a bit of digging (thanks @SuperMG) and testing, we can definity assume cards such as RTX (Turing, ada...) do work with edp only laptops provided they have DP_D or EDP lanes on the MXM port. Baseline: concept (thank you SuperMG): https://notebooktalk.net/topic/2195-rtx-3080-in-m18xr2-should-i-do-it-lol/page/9/ How to: On clevo P870, solder MXM lanes 23 25 27 (PNL PW et BL) to 3.3V_RUN (via mxm lanes or directly on motherboard) https://ibb.co/QjD3p5pQ We tested on 3.3VS and it did not work perfect (sometimes random black screen) https://ibb.co/sJQ8D5Hs Proof of work: Test with SuperMG RTX4070 MXM https://ibb.co/zT1FTxQZ Test with my Quadro RTX 3000 PNY (Adlink): https://ibb.co/zVjrWmgp https://ibb.co/mVBfdVnc Drawbacks: - brightness control don’t work (stays in full brightness) - requires soldering skills. But SuperMG is working on a flat ribbon that would do the wire trick without any solder skills. - drivers still need modding (nvidia at least) thus secure boot might fail.
  10. unfortunately I don't have any m6800 nor m6700 lying around. Price would be 250€ + postage I guess.
  11. That's the one. I still got one available for sale if needed πŸ™‚
