a more sci-fi / futuristic desing would be nice (and bring bak the damned skullcape)

i don,t know how to tell it but i hate simplistic desing ala mac or blade they seem to say i have no inspiration let's put nothig

i laughed my ass off when i seen it for the first time

then depending on the internal configuration of the laptop it can help plus it's free contact area added why not take it

you mean that this is the side facing the board ?

actualy that specific pcb is done preatty much nothing can be done for it

you can see on the picture i have burnt and destroyed the pin emplacement for the led because these emplacement are made for surface mounted led since i could not find the apropriate eagle file for a RGB led

but i need the drill bits to make holes in the emplacement to pass the led pin

update

microsoldering is fun but it can be a pain to

it was all going well until i had to solder the led

so now i need to find some 0.5mm drill bit

depend if he has vbios A00 or A01 then A00 can cause issues

i can,t add more rep to you lol but nice job they look great

i'm off to testing i'll tell you if anything hapens

6k gpu wtf O.o you are running on a single card

Eluveitie - Omnos

nah till you have had it for 2 years you are not that die hard ;p

i could understand if it ment that alienware would cover you even further oc with warrenty but anyway they generaly never cheq what hapened to your laptop so they cover it wether or or you oc or killed it oced

ya but on the m14x they are butting on that limit and compain about it ...

yup cause evne when comparing 460 vs 6970 because 6970 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>460 in power the simple fact that it gives more fps would make the amd seem better at the same seting cause it would be smoother

unles we are comparing the price/image qualitie ratio then we obviously know who wins LOOOL ok i stop now /fanboyism

hahahaha cau i get 2000 of these and use them as a render farm?

notebook cheq and nvidia's own website need i to say more ahahahhaah

we would need people with both card that could take picture of the exact same positions with 2 diferent cards for anyone to be convicend and also to shut fanboys arguments

(note i assume mys elf as an ATI fan)

i have been runing without a back pannel for nearly one year and then i got a girl friend....

wich forces me to move around quite a bit so i have to put the back pannel back on every time i move so i wanned to fix this and i also think for the temperature reading that it might be 1c less then running without the back pannel because of the ram sink i added on my gpu heat sink (you can see then through the mesh) and the way i designed the back pannel it forces the air around them to cycle

update added: project 2 if some of you knwo the m17 you might guess where i'm going with that micro controler a led and a custom designed pcb

nice you just hapen to have a physic class or you are studying to become an astronomer?

what about having a laptop that you cannot bench or game on thank my gpu fan for dieing on me

that system looks great the only thing i don,t understand is the factory overclock the 2920XM setting can be set the same in bios even if you don't purchace it oced

i would not fear the die to crack but the whole board under it yes or scratching the die

it does not surprize me they expect desktop user to mess with thier hardware more then laptop

i have no idea of the prices but i guess it would be worth it to cheq how much it is maybe it could be made rentable by selling a couple to oher m15X owners

i have the same plan for my m17 if there are enough m17 user left around when i get there XD

Cooliance - Heat Sinks, Heat Pipes, and Heat Sink Resources

if you have windows 7 ultimate you can hackenable dreamscene like it was on vista i don't know if it's legal to do so on windows 7 retail but it is for thoses of us that upgraded from vista ultimate caus we paid for the feature

WOW nice project hahahah it preatty much kick what ever i had in mind for my area-51 m17 in the nuts

there are probably some more advanced and some less

this guy channel is just great for astronomy video

nice done

it's sad you would have to rework them to be compatible with my model

with the old alienware you could have tryed your self

i droped vodka and coka into my laptop accidentaly and i didn't had accidental damage covered by my warranty and they replaced the keyboard without asking to many questions

not sure you could do it with dell though
