What issues have you heard? Only issues I know of is that it won't work with Windows 7, gotta have Windows 8. Other than that, it's working just fine. -
New to this/Sorry for ignorance, General start-up questions:

Not sure if the new 17 has the same bios options as the R3/R4, but if it does, have you tried to disable the HD4800 and just have the 780M active? I did that on my R3 when I installed my 7970M. -
Long time lurker, first time poster here. It appears that I need a few more posts before I can download from the list. I do have a question though. Is it safe to download an OV bios and run on stock clocks? I haven't had the need to overclock my 680Ms yet, but I do like to run some benchmarks. Currently about a 200/400 OC is stable, but I would like to try higher. Would it be ok to flash the OV bios and not have to worry about reflashing back to the stock bios?

HELP Troubleshooting my m18x, please!

Now when you say you cleaned it with an eraser, are you referring to something like a pencil eraser? I would suggest not using something as rough as an eraser as it could cause more damage. It's best to use alcohol and a Q-tip. If you're able to, try to get your hands on a different GPU to see if maybe both your cards are bad.
