    EXP GDC Beast/Ares-V7/V6 discussion

    in Enclosures and Adapters

    Posted

    Guys before I will move on with this platform to a mini ITX setup just one more thing I want to ask as to how will i use I full ATX PSU with an EXP GDC V6? I did purchase that atx to 8 pin power adapter from yoybuy.

    I was frustrated last night I did not even get to play with BF4 multi player hell even the campaign because the I kept experiencing low voltage drop in my setup for like 5 times and I said I give up, 2 more steps to go and I am moving to a desktop setup.

    So please tell me how to use a full ATX PSU with an EXP GDC V6 egpu? My dell DA-2 is now probably faulty because the voltage drops happen very often even after just a few minutes of starting the whole system up and casual browsing on Google Chrome.

    Why are Intel not allowing Thunderbolt eGPUs? Ideas inside.

    I think with this new Alienware dock just being released other companies will have to create official eGPU solutions Intel included.

    Yes ditto! see for now we got;

    US DIY eGPU peeps,

    MSI GS30 Shadow,

    Asus XG Station 2

    and this Dell Alienware 13 with GPU Amplifier

    So Intel has got to support it! Hell this is product feasibility and full market potential for them!

    Any stupid individual from Intel that blocks this is either deaf and dumb!

    BPlus PE4C V3/V2 discussion

    in Enclosures and Adapters

    Posted

    I am deciding whether or not to get a PE4C for my low power desktop setup.

    Looking into the HP100C kit that comes with the desktop pcie card. I plan to have my monitor hooked up to DVI to the egpu and then via hdmi to the onboard graphics on my motherboard.

    Now does anyone know if the motherboard will autodetect if the gpu is on at boot via the PE4C and automatically use that? visa versa will the comp detect the gpu is off and boot with onboard graphics?

    to the OP, this is a fantastic post for a newbie like me. Laid out everything I was looking for.

    I do have the same plan but a whole different scenario, I will do a crossfire attempt on a mini ITX motherboard via PCIE X1 and PCIE X16 slots, who know just try and buy dude for sure it will work because the PCB is designed to fully work like an actual X16 slot that powers itself on together with thr whole system as if it was attached on by default like how the implementations are with laptops when it comes to eGPUs. Only disadvantage is the PCIe lane will be limited up to only X2 instead of full blown X16 but in AMD cards it wouldn't matter as much...

    I should create a new thread for discuss my problem on there, sorry..

    Thats what i thought a few days ago, i have to disable igpu on BIOS, but it seems there hasn't the option to disable it on my BIOS

    screenshot:

    I tried to contact samsung support (my laptop model: 535u4c), but they didn't released update the BIOS for my laptop

    Maybe there was an option (disable igpu using cmd) or something like that?

    There is an option to disable in my laptop (intel cpu+amd dGPU) in the bios and I think its a whole different story for the AMD APUs I guess.

    Oh okey alright I see it...I think at this point man I guess you really need to use Tech Inferno Fan setup 1.30. It's your last option I believe. Just PM him for details.

    Tried your instructions still not worked for me :(

    Here's the detail:

    Your last instruction told me to install amd driver 14.9 (not the beta version) with egpu attached to my laptop. It went smooth until i accepted to reboot, before the windows go to my desktop (there's a windows 8 icon starting up windows), it went bsod (it's said atikmpag.sys) and rebooted again and again until i unplugged the egpu.

    Tried to hotplug method was not worked at all, it's not detected my external vga.

    The last method i tried to disable my igpu first, then restart the windows (while the windows was restarting, i plugged the egpu).It went to the desktop with no blue screen, and i checked to device manager and my egpu (R7 250) was showed up with no errors

    Screenshot:

    image.jpg

    I checked the egpu with HwInfo software, if you see the current clocks its 13.6Mhz. When i check my igpu (HD 7550M & 7600G) the current clocks was 199Mhz. And i thought the external graphic card was idled, am i right?

    But now it still cant showing up to the external monitor, went to display settings and detect external monitor.. nothing appears

    Any suggest?

    Whoah this is such a whole different story now buddy wait a sec,

    I did not know you had an AMD CPU, I guess you got all the steps right but I am trying to remember how I did mine at those last few steps, I remembered when I installed the Catalyst Desktop version, I did not reboot yet and checked my device manager, it shows the eGPU (initially attached and powered) as "Microsoft Basic Display" adapter. I would then push on the combination of FN plus the display function to select only my led monitor and it did went ok and I then rebooted. Now once the laptop boots up with that brand it will directly connect to my LED TV monitor and boot normally to windows 8.1 lockscreen. Although it took a while to boot up to windows 8.1, I knew why its maybe because it is performing the initial pcie compression to accomodate the eGPU electrically and integrate it into the system but neither that I experienced a BSOD unless I put that pcie reset delay button to the right side, it would display only weird artifacts.

    Maybe it's an AMD APU thing..sorry..couldn't help more

    Oopsie my bad!!! here I forgot one step!!

    disable dGPU in the BIOS option and choose iGPU only!!!!

    Don't choose switchable graphics, use integrated graphics!! shown here below

    images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRKS28oNRH4aB4jhOrREh7h9vlqXs9EovqRjxaUKbJY36oR2PbU

    Try that and tell us what happens!

    Thank you for clarifying but I still wonder if it this internal LCD accelerating is will lead to less performance?

    So the best performance will only be possible by an external LCD, the internal can be used by enabling Optimus but will come with less performance - is that the right conclusion?

    Yes that is correct as per Tech Inferno Fan writings

    Do this carefully step by step.

    -download and install DDU Uninstaller.

    -download desktop AMD Catalyst 14.9 WQHL driver

    -download latest intel hd graphics driver

    -run DDU uninstaller and remove AMD graphics first (just follow prompts, Clean and reboot)

    -run DDU uninstaller again and remove Intel graphics driver. Reboot

    -install intel hd graphics drivers reboot

    -install AMD Catalyst 14.9 WQHL driver with your eGPU attached to your PC powered on (don't worry this is completely safe trust me) Reboot

    -once it has booted, just press your FN+Display button and select secondary display only and enjoy your setup

    I assume you are having Windows 8.1 FTW

    And no you can't have a unified driver for both eGPU and discrete GPU,

    I think that Mobility Radeon HD 4570M runs on a legacy driver now, not so sure though.

    Mobile and Desktop Catalyst drivers are always different unless you modify it through rocket-science means.

    in My setup it will show an error (AMD Catalyst Driver) when I run my notebook with the eGPU unplugged and only the intel hd 4000 graphics will be active.

    Hello everyone.

    It seems to me after spending countless hours that i have to buy set up 1.30 for all this to work.

    I that true?

    No its not hours mate just read and follow the instructions given to you by Tech Inferno Fan, if you are able to understand the whole concept of it, in no time your setup will be up and running

    Cool. I also have a laptop with an HD3000. I am debating on just building a desktop, as I am much more familiar with the hardware on those than laptops. I do like to tinker though...

    You can do both why not? Later on this year or early 2015 when skylake platform is here for sure I will build one and use my current gpu on it

    I am getting mixed info on acceptable cards for EXP GDC... Is it impossible to PCIe a card to a laptop with a preexisting dedicated GPU? I have a 840M, but would like to upgrade to a desktop card when I am not on the move.

    No you have to read more the guide mate to be able to fully understand the whole concept and decide later on. It is not impossible thats why there are lots of successful implementations here. Hardwiring of desktop GPUs though is not electronically and electrically possible possible hence all these experimental stuff which are successful. If you want to be able to upgrade look for a laptop that uses the MXM gpu platform which is removable like ram. Google this "GTX 980M MXM" and you'll see good example of a compact mobile GPU
