There is no brick risk if I choose the bad one is it?

GM204?

@Prema What version shall I flash in a MSI GT683DXR with a 6GB g-sync 970m? GTX970M-G_6GB_MXM_ZM_OC_PM or GTX970M-G_6GB_MXM_DM_OC_PM? Thanks

Hi, I tried to upgrade my 16f2 with a 970m Clevo card using my old 7970m heatsink but apparently is does not fit. Anyone knows how to fix that or where to buy a new heatsink? Many thanks
-
Thanks, I assume that the card will arrive with the Clevo vBios and it might need modded drivers or even more unlikely a vBios reflashing. Can the Clevo heatsink be used with the 16f2? Because I already replaced the 570m by a 7970m and I lost the 570m heatsink. Thanks

Hi guys, I'm wondering if this card http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/New-Nvidia-GeForce-GTX-970M-6GB-DDR5-MXM-3-0-Type-B-for-Clevo-Alienware-MSI-/282018741611?hash=item41a9a07d6b:g:W6gAAOSwvFZW7Ntl would post straight away in my 16f2. If not, would I need to upgrade the vbios? How? Or a modded driver? Would the 2670qm be a perceptible bottleneck or is the upgrade still worth it? Thanks
-
Not sure if 8970M (4Gb vRam) would post. Neither Battlefiled 4 and CoD Ghosts reach 2Gb vRam from a 7970M maxed out at 1080p, so it may not worth it if you don't use higher resolutions
-
Finally I received and installed the 7970M this week and is working perfectly fine in a GT683DXR (16F2). Just for recap: - Dell cards with vBios 015.022 are plug and play when booting from legacy mode using the msi unlocked bios - CPU throttle problems (Far Cry 3 for example) are solved using Throttlestop 4.0 and turning it on - It may be obvious but a proper 7970M heatsink is needed (or a modded one) - No x-bracket needed - Scored P6337 in 3dmark11 using default clocks (AMD Radeon HD 7970M video card benchmark result - Intel Core i7-2670QM Processor,Micro-Star International Co., Ltd. MS-16F2) with latest beta drivers Thanks all

Just ordered a Dell 7970m (vbios unknown) + msi heatsink. I am booting from unlocked BIOS in legacy mode. May I need to flash the vbios to disable enduro? Or just the 16f2 will ignore it since it doesn't support it?
-
When bios in efi-compatible, can't you enter into bios options neither boot from usb?
-
Fantastic, Legacy ROM is the right bios option to boot a card with uefi vBios. Can anybody explain why? Thanks
-
Sorry I explained really bad in my previous post (I had lot of fever ). For getting to work a Dell 7970m card with .022 vBios (uefi) we should boot in the unlocked bios from efi-compatible (not legacy)? Was the quoted post below wrong? Thanks!
-
So the unlocked BIOS boots from UEFI by default?
-
Is not efi-compatible the uefi one? Thanks
-
BIOS updated successfully For booting Win7 into UEFI mode, do I have to change to Legacy ROM? Thanks
-
Has anyone installed it into the 683DRX sucessfully? Just curious about why the bios is shared between 683R and 683DXR (as far as I know their motherboards are different, aren't they?)
-
Do I need the x-bracket to install the 7970m into a 16f2? Thanks
-
Is not any 7970m msi heatsink out there that I can use without dremel? Otherwise I might go for the 770m cause all would be easier and there would not be a huge performance impact I think. Once installed the unlocked bios and changed to boot from uefi, would I be able to start the OS (Win7) without further modifications?
-
Thanks, what models does the 16f2 bios apply to?
-
Fantastic! So it should be as easy as: 1) Install the unlocked bios (16f2 or 693?) 2) change to boot from uefi 3) Buy the Dell 7970m 015.021 and the 7970m msi heatsink Thanks again
-
For the 683dxr, the right one is the 16f2 one instead of the 683, isn't it? Thanks
-
Hi all. I am commited to replace my 570m by a 7970m in a 683dxr, I have seen a Dell card with vBIOS 015.021 (uefi) As I have read I think it should work as long as my computer bios has uefi enabled also. In my current BIOS i have the option: Legacy USB Support: [Enabled] Is this the right option? Or shall I flash my computer with an unlocked bios and enable uefi with another option? Thanks.
