Mictain Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 So I have an M18x R2 that I recently installed Windows 10 on. It has A13 Bios and dual 680m graphics cards. I am looking to improve the performance of it without replacing the graphics cards. I know there are several possible things that I can do such as the modded bios and flashing the graphics cards. I am curious what steps I can take to accomplish this and in what order. I am pretty sure, from what I have read, that I will have to downgrade the bios, is this possible? If that is possible then do I apply the modded bios and flash the graphics cards? Any guidance is appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MemoryThief Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Well, you can downgrade the Bios, at will and upgrade... I believe from memory that you downgrade to be able to bypass some future restriction in power or something, then upgrade a hacked bios that doesn't have the restriction or something... I didn't pay too much attention because I'm on R1... and haven't tried to upgrade the now old computer... Honestly with that new 1060 that was just confirmed possible, I'd say that's the way to go... however you say you DON"T want to replace the graphics cards... I'm unsure how far you can get trying to over clock them and or overheat them to death before you want to actually swap them out... I dunno what you can do in that case... Modding the Bios only won't give you much or any improvement without any hardware modifications I'm pretty sure... Hope you find out something...
