zerokool Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 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 ?

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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
