  1. Also QTJ1 with proper cooler can all core at 5ghz . So there is that .
  2. 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
  3. 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
  4. Thanks . Appreciate you 🙂
  5. 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
  6. I found a few places that sell the cooler but it's expensive these work fur the Alienware 18 as well correct ?
  7. I might just grab an Rx 6600xt or 6800 maybe would have better luck with amd GPUs
  8. Have you tried the steps mentioned here ?
  9. What cpu ? Looks like your rocking cicichans vapor chamber 3 pipe ? How are temps ?
  10. 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 ')
  11. 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
  12. You have an 18 right ? If so try what he's suggesting with the bios settings . Maybe it would work
  13. I7 4930 mx . 4.2 ghz same CPU that's in my viking ( 18 r1?) no throttling from it .
  14. You know what I had a ranger just like yours with an Quadro rtx 4000 from adelink . Never had throttling and I remembered looking at your post about the ranger ( 17 r1 ) and set mine exactly like yours . Just in case since I read about the throttling . So I wonder if that works with the 18 since they essentially share an ec and bios just a few extras do to multi GPU now I regret selling the ranger .........
  15. My old p4000 was 100 watt ( oc bios ) and never throttled . So hmmm unless Pascal isn't the cards that drop to 55watt
  16. So I can try to test my Alienware shipped with dual 970s in sli . Only issue is money . Lol 😂 but my Alienware is the newer revision
  17. That's true . Sadly though with the 18 not having edp and relies on a mux having faster igpu helps with general os gui elements . Had a Alienware 17 r2 with the 4980hq . The one with all the msata slots instead of the MXM shd it felt snappier then my old ranger with 4930 mx or my 18 at 4.3 . That's just me though . I'm still curious how hard it would be to get the mutant version working or above 4g decoding working on these
  18. I have about the same . I've seen comparations with the 4989hw and ryzen 4500 check it out on YouTube it's crazy hue that l4 cache boosts things .
  19. Probably that would make sense so he'd be limited
  20. Hmm interesting to know . Still though it be basically a max q then lol
  21. The 4980hq has better ipc do to the 128mb l4 cache the igpu is also as fast as a gt 740 . So at least for the os elements it will feel smoother and more responsive . The only thing is if you plan to use more then two ram slots I think you need to have single rank dimms similar to the QTJ1 on the clevo p870
  22. The only thing is it won't allow ocing even with unlocked CPU . Where as one version I had fir win 7 did support it
  23. I know this is kind of old but I'm looking at the 3060 12gb . Fur the Alienware 18 r1 viking. So that card *should work * ? Without to much fuss aside from unlocked bios to enable SG mode ? Also if you want more power for your GPU then you need to resister mod your Alienware 18 . However the 330 watt psu is the ultimate bottleneck the GPU will happily pull as much power as it needs but it will drop power do to the psu and also drain battery . So limit games to 60 fps if you can
  24. It has to do with his the system can't read the temp sensors . Since haswrll systems and above . (Clevo p870) Support MXM upgrades both them require detecting temp sensor . There ... Might be a way to bypass it but I haven't figured it out . I've tried a 480 with modded bios . Modded vbios . Nothing worked . The 480 is now in an old iMac 2011
  25. I plan on doing this with my Alienware 18 r1 viking . I don't think I need duet but if so I can make a tiny partition on an msata drive for it while still having 99 percent of the drives capacity available to use .
