Congrats on your new, well you get what I mean, Alienware M18x R1. That's one sick, meaning awesome gamer to have. I guess the ram frequency won't be noticeable by us in terms of a real world performance that we can feel. But it'll make a difference on benchmarks and programs that will benefit from the increase by just a little bit.

I'm sure everybody here is very happy for you!b:look_down:.

Our AC isn't cause here :/

I bought a dell 240W AC and soldered cables but it didn't change a thing

There's an adapter you can get for the Dell to MSI 240watt Ac Adapter. We got ours from Bixnet. xD

I have thermal paste from Prolimatech PK-1 Nano Aluminium and its really good, CPU 41C idle GPU 36c, stress CPU 77c , GPU 69c. For me its better then Zalman or Artcic MX4.

This Prolimatech PK-1 is what i want to try next. I heard that this is really good when properly applied, but not at it's best when the pasting job isn't that good. Anyone experience this on the PK-1?

I just got my 5 posts needed for downloading and this is the first thing I downloaded. Thanks Nospheratu! This is an awesome set of icons!

I fully agree with Michael on that one but make sure you buy v1 or v2 and not the v3 because the v3 uses broadcom and doesn't support DDWRT.

Now this is very nice to know. So version 1 or 2 it is to get DDWRT support. Thanks Suoah!

Hi Nando4!

I've actually been following your thread every so often since it started on NBR as the "let's figure out how to make a DIY Vidock" to the tremendous success that it has become as the "DIY eGPU". It's also nice to see "DIY eGPU 2.0" up and running here on Tech Inferno. I honestly think that this is the perfect home for you. Kudos to all your efforts, to the countless number of people you have helped and most importantly MORE POWER to you and ALL the DIY eGPU Users All Over the World!

mww86, Michael, StamastiX & svl7- Thanks for the warm welcome everybody! This type of "welcome" coming from you "highly respected guys" makes feel quite at home. Can't wait to start hitting the threads that will help me on my current M17xR2 build. It was initially supposed to be a somewhat long-term plan it terms of doing the upgrades, but I guess I was bitten by the "upgrade bug", as I've deviated from my plan and somewhat sped things up. LOL! I guess this is what sometimes happens.

Hi Everybody! I've recently singed up here. I've been following NBR in the past mostly for information that I needed regarding mods I wanted to do to my laptops. I've been able to learn a lot there, thanks to everybody who (are actually already here) shares and takes the time to help other people out. NBR has been an invaluable part of this hobby of mine. So it's sad to see it "going to the dogs", so to speak.

I look forward to learning a lot more here as most of the members I personally view as very talented and very helpful all seem to be here already.

Thanks.

Sonny xD

Xonar, a heap of Thanks for starting this thread! This will surely help out a lot of MSI users including a friend of mine.

Keep up the very good work!
