Would be nice . Not sure what it would add . Maybe just a microcode update but still
-
Ahhhhh you are referring to the ranger . I know there is a dell a14 bios fur the 18 but never saw an unlocked
-
If you are on a14+ maybe there is a way to dump the bios ? Idk if that requires a flash programmer or just the sleep bug
-
I'm actually after the a14+ bios I can't find it any where

clevo We did it. TM1 heatsink has been grafted to KM1
zerokool replied to KabyZen's topic in Sager & Clevo
Yeah kind of hard without a drill / cutting press or machine tool lol . -
Agreed . I also wish I could rest a newer GPU on my aw 18 . It had two 970s in sli and shipped with the 4930mx . So that makes me wonder if it would throttle any newer card but good lord bills are tight . I'd be chill if someone sent me there card of test it . Report back and send it back to them
-
We can use speedfan . At least with the haswell based models like the ranger ( 17r1) and viking (18 r1)
-
Ahh figured .
-
Also I have a GTX 1060 clevo card . It requires separate power ? Is there a way to run that power ? Someone mentioned doing so from the rapter nvme card ?
-
Oh that's annoying . So from what I read the rx 6600 has issues and the 3060 working ? I don't really care about the 55 watt bug as I'm sure there is a way around it . You know I wonder also if we could mod our bios to add the info for our gpus . Maybe we are going about this all wrong and need to modify the bios and flash it? Which might add above 4g decoding?
-
Seems with the ivy bridge based units it's a matter of modding the inf . Guess the same would be fur the haswell based 18 r1 viking. Might be better just to get the 3060 then since it's the same price

Hello there I have a question regarding newer amd GPUs and our viking and ranger series Alienware s. Is it possible to use an Rx 6600 or 6600xt with these laptops . Both do ship with ame gpus such as the 7970m and even crossfire . So could we use newer amd cards as well ?

P870DM3-g does Dsanke's bios support the RTX 3080 and QTJ1 cpu
zerokool replied to Mal's topic in Sager & Clevo
Also QTJ1 with proper cooler can all core at 5ghz . So there is that . -

zerokool replied to Mal's topic in Sager & Clevo
The xeon is about 8 percent faster then the 9980hk non oc so it's probably equal at the same clock speed to the QTJ1 . Just FYI 5ghz is single core -
Interesting . Glad the 17 r1 can make use of speedfan to control fans . Another mod I see don't to the r1 is the faster fan . And heatsink from cicichan . It's a 5 pipe heatsink . If you are concerned with temps
-
Thanks . Appreciate you 🙂
-
I find it better then the fan curve method I think there is even a batch file that can be made to set the fans to desired speeds . So if you are just surfing the web you can set them to 50 percent or so . Ahd when do anything heavy set to 100 . The 18 isn't that loud
-
I found a few places that sell the cooler but it's expensive these work fur the Alienware 18 as well correct ?
-
I might just grab an Rx 6600xt or 6800 maybe would have better luck with amd GPUs
-
Have you tried the steps mentioned here ?
-
What cpu ? Looks like your rocking cicichans vapor chamber 3 pipe ? How are temps ?

https://notebooktalk.net/topic/2501-alienware-18-r1-rtx-a3000-12gb-mxm/page/5/#comment-60997 check this forum thread . We are discussing what seems to be a bug with the bios with new GPUs pulling over 90watt getting power throttled to 55 watt . My Alienware 18 shipped with two 970s in sli and never throttled . So I want to test a new rtx or even rx 6650xt card and see if there are any throttling . At any rate the bug*seems* to have to do with the PCI Express power management which there is a setting you can change in bios with specific settings to bypass bug . Follow this thread and we might have answers ')

When I'm trying to go nuts lol I just use speed fan to manually set fan speeds . As long as you tick dell ec options in soeedfan you can control the fan rpm
-
You have an 18 right ? If so try what he's suggesting with the bios settings . Maybe it would work
-
I7 4930 mx . 4.2 ghz same CPU that's in my viking ( 18 r1?) no throttling from it .
