I tried the P270WM vbios by replacing the P150 one and it's still the same issue, not work... I'll just rebuy a HD 5870M since I found a X7200 VBIOS for it so no more "instant shutdown" situations?

The HD 5870 I bought didn't instant shutdown but.. it literally died at minute 2 and never displayed something on the screen since. The HD 5870 isn't even detected on my Alienware M18X R2 as well. Card is not working now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When using M2000M primary and RTX 5000 as secondary I get 60w TDP limit on RTX 5000. but in SG mode I can hit full 90W of card. still haven’t figured out where the issue is unfortunately Hello. Did you manage to fix it? I remember I did get the full TDP consumptions. Let me explain how. The master GPU had no drivers, no default Nvidia drivers, just Microsoft basic. It allowed my slave card to run at a max of 127W. I need drivers on my master GPU so I can run at 1080p 😕 Let me know what do you think about my experiment.
