Pimp my Rid... ehh M6800

[Annihilator]

hey peeps, got an M6800 for 100 bucks n now just want upgrade... some stuff already clear n ordered / installed, but need to know a couple of things(mainly about GPU options).

 

Service Tag is: 9F9PZ52 (so u guys can take a look of original config)

 

original configuration --> whats ordered/already installed:

i7-4710MQ --> i7-4930MX

2x 4GB DDR3L 1600 --> 2x 8GB DDR3L 1866

AMD FirePro M6100 --> NV GTX 880M 8GB(just waiting for the NV heatsink, 880M i already had bcs was planned for a imac upgrade)

2x SATA 500GB HDD --> mPCIe/mSATA 1TB SSD

no WIFI --> WIFI 6/AX

 

 

 

 

Maxwell upgrades? without any Bios mods works? just mod the .inf? someone tried the big maxwell(GTX 980 Mobile not 980M) with N16E-GXX-A1? i seen they r as normal MXM-B 3.0 form factor ava so would fit without modding the heatsink(except the lil cut where all maxwell cards need) etc.. speed would be like an GTX 1060 desktop. pascal(P5000 / P5200) seems doesnt work well? when checked the service tag, show me eDP display, when seen right will cause trouble with pascal GPUs on windows? RTX 3000 seen something? or same issues like pascal? 

seen on ebay a flat-cable which bridge the pins on RTX cards so they work with eDP displays?

just measured some things... i can solder some passive heatsinks on the GPU n CPU cooler plate, height between 2-5mm, n in the secondary HDD bay will fit a 70*15mm blower fan, good on this is, no mods on the cassis itself needed, just couple hole on the bottom cover for the fan to get fresh intake n done, another really great thing is, bcs the bay is open straight to the direction of the cooler plates, they will get the whole fresh air, with some passive heatsinks on it, should be easy to cool down a 120W card + 57W CPU. 

 

will post any updates when done 🙂

just will order another CPU fan, fits perfect in the secondary HDD/SSD bay n can blow fresh air straight to the GPU heatsink, need to make a fan cable splitter bcs will put it straight to the CPU fan connector(should handle 0.6A in total). so few holes in the bottom cover, connect the cable, put the fan in n fresh air to the mem + GPU heatsink(will solder 2mm copper heatsinks on it for maximum performance)
