Yeah, overclocking would be great. At least, there is no problem for that on M6800. You can rich Advanced menu with grub nvram editor and IRF table extracted from the BIOS. There you can change TDP values, Memory speeds, timings and even XMPs. I've written some useful guides for Precision owners: Fan control (yes, you can push fans higher than 4000rpm:) ) - http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/guide-how-to-control-fans-on-dell-laptops-under-windows.805317/ RAM overclock (any RAM, even the cheapest one) - http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/guide-how-to-overclock-and-change-timings-for-any-ram-on-most-laptops.805589 Also, the sBIOS is editable (for those who have M6700 and earlier).

Hi there:) I hope you guys can help me with the related case. I have Quadro K3100M and I want to change the Device ID to some Geforce (780m for example). Problem is - I don't know how to patch DSDT right for that. The Device ID for K3100M is "11B6", for GTX 780M is "119F". DSDT table attached. Device is PEG0 in _SB.PCI0 scope (string 12493). dsdt.7z

Hi! Currently I'm working on project to turn k3100m/k4100M into k5100m/GTX 880m without hardware mod and I'll be very appreciative if you help with some stuff:) I'm looking for people with gtx 780/880 or quadro K3/4/5100M. All you need to do: 1. Download GPU-Z and save the vBIOS. 2. Download RWEverything, in top corner select "Access-->PCI". Then windows should appear - select device called "nVidia Corporation VGA Controller". After, save the info to binary with Shift+F2 combination. 3. Share this two files with me:) Best Regards, Valentine.

Hi there! Currently I have Dell Precision M6800 with FirePro M6100 on board and decided to get a little bit more from this GPU. As it doesn't support software overclocking, the only way is to modify vBIOS. Most recent public vBIOS modding tools don't work with some new graphics cards (including M6100, M280X and so on), so thats why there is only a "HEX" way for modification. Since I started this thread, I had many sleepless nights and done a lot of work on modding, so there is a really huge difference between my early and current builds. Here is what we have for now. Current build: Mystery Magic vBIOS 1150@1650mhz ver.1 Features: -- Core is clocked to 1150mhz, memory - 1650mhz -- Maximum total consuming power set to 100W -- Throttling, voltage and GPU fan adjustments -- Software overclock is available now with overclocking capabilities up to 1320@1800mhz -- UVD states are disabled 3dmark Fire Strike (v.1.1) AIDA64 GPGPU Benchmark *Test Machine config: Dell M6800, i7, 32gb RAM, SSD, hybrid graphics (Intel+AMD), Windows 7 64-bit. Future builds: -- Turn on voltage control for software overclocking -- Unlock all 896 SP Downloads: vBIOS mods directory My collection of original mobile vBIOS Flashing instruction: atiflash.exe -p -f 0 bios.rom !!!Before flashing, backup your original vBIOS and create bootable recovery usb drive!!! P.S. Any help and even donations are always welcomed:D P.S.S. If you have vBIOS version newer then mine - it would be super great, if you share it with us;) UPD 6/19/2015: Software overclocking unlocked. But stupid TDP limits everything. From this day on every vBIOS is unlocked for software overclocking UPD 6/19/2015: Uploaded modified vBIOS for Precision M6600 and M6800 with various clock rates and software overclocking unlock UPD 6/19/2015: TDP variables found, but frequency fluctuations still there UPD 6/20/2015: Voltage variables found, core frequency is stable, core undervolted. Currently, there is only one vBIOS with this changes released for testing purposes. UPD 6/21/2015: Found fan variables. UPD 6/23/2015: New testing release branch with many goodies.

Is it possible to remap outputs in FirePro M6100 (aka 8950m) vBIOS? Because I've installed this card in HP 8760w and it works properly only in Linux with default X.org driver.

Just download "nvflash for windows", place your new rom file to the nvflash folder, start Command Line and type this:

So sweet... It would be a nice upgrade of my current 8760w workstation. Hope, this models would actually support Optimus (in QuickSpec sheet of 8760w we also could see Optimus, but...)

Bad news - there is no way to upgrade vBIOS (it locates in sBIOS, which we can't modify). Software overclocking doesn't give you a reasonable performance. The only way - is to purchase Dell M4000. It has the same TPD, but twice faster.

GPU might be the most free-of-choice part of 8*60/8*70w series. mSATA is worst part - who knows which non-HP model would work.
