I think so, especially because the topic is a ... waste of space?

Look for someone with SLI DTR or the laptop service with an hot air gun and chip programmer in your neighbourhood.

It is not a GPU heatsink from X7200. Ask them http://www.clevo-computer.de/ for a right one. You can find a part reference number in service manual on this forum.

From what I remember heatsink from the X7200 is a little different and better by the way. Is why I would add another stock one. In the past I ordered parts from Clevo center in Germany. I congratulate purchase. Were it not LGA2011 I would choose this model.

Hi Prema, Anyway I'm going back to the K5000M so I ask out of sheer curiosity whether my mainboard is compatible up to the GTX780M or above? This is not the CPU PWR capacitors or MOSFETs make the difference between mainboards. What is it? Is it too important differences in the PCB circuits or is just a matter of mainboard SMD component replacement? Regards

Just change your power supply.

Remember folks. For GK104 in P1xxHM the vbios file must have 88(52)KB. That's all.

Why would they need an additional power plug? After all they can not cooling the card even without. The good news is that with this arrangement of supply components it have a chance to cool without involvement through the paths.

Of course I'm alive. Simply, since Clevo change all the engineers to the accountants, I don't have to whom to talk. Physical values vs virtualization. It was just a rhetorical question.

Compal make barebones for Clevo or I missed something.

You can give even 16mm square electrical wire and further will not result. the weakest link in P150xM is plug/connector. If you do not replace it forget to the high OC. All my P150 are replaced connector/mobo from P170. BTW, My QS K5000M (9300 points in 3DMark) had poor ASIC but thicker PCB than standard OEM card, so better contact.

No matter which one. The second (separate) will be easier for You to adjust but requires frequent cleaning.

@Mr. FoxThe BGA is inevitable. For me BGA will by interesting if within a single programmable BGA chip it implements all the elements of a PC with dynamically allocates resources/function (CPU / GPU / RAM / Storage) and performance comparable to 4x GTX1080 + 2x E7-8890 V4. So, coming soon. BGA is only the beginning. Fortunately, they do not print chip yet on the casing. You can always swap an hot air to BGA soldering station. Anyway in a few years Samsung reconciles all of us.

From what I see in P570WM technically is possible only a tandem of Clevo GTX980 (Master) + MSI GTX980 (Slave). The question is whether it will work together BIOS / VBIOS/VBIOS?

I just want to say, that the existing technical solutions of Clevo work to the appearance of GTX980M. Talking about the larger PSU does not make sense to time the changes in the supply system on the motherboards. Perhaps a 36V mobo/power supply would be a solution?

820W/20V~40A I do not have full technical documentation, but I bet that it power socket may have difficulties at 15-20A after 15-30 minutes. It's just for 2-3 benchmarks. Good luck for the 3 hours of the games.

I think that rather than deliberate about the size of the power supply, Clevo should think about changing the power socket/plug, or the ability to easily install a second one, without converter box.

I was wrong, The differences were between pin out of Hynix and Elpida chips. Rather I did not have of Samsung pin out documentation, or at least I can not find anything. links to Hynix technical documentation no longer work. I only have documentation of Elpida EDW2032BBBGxx chip.

Hi @Khenglish From what I remember in the technical documentation of the Hynix and Samsung chips, there is differences in pin out. As you showed, not significantly enough to work side by side. However, most probably it's the reason of decrease its speed in combination. Swap for a faster chips from the same manufacturer I already did twice in my damaged K5000M (2 pieces Hynix T2C to ROC) and in GTX680M (Samsung FC04 to FC03 complete set). All work well but even after hardware OV no fireworks. Recently I realized that the swap of all the chips from another manufacturer and probably a higher speed is possible through GDDR5 manufacturer ID resistor. For increase it clock speed in GTX980M I suggests to use GDDR5 manufacturer resistor ID values from GTX970. Regards

just would to see motherboard with suply and data bus ring which can be connected via interchangeable expansion ports everything from every side. It would not need adapters or 1KW power supplies. For christmas please.

Here is http://forum.techinferno.com/clevo/3837-%5Brepair%5D-clevo-service-manuals.html#post45853 the answer to your doubts.

Unfortunately nothing. I did not have the patience to keep trying.

In the P570WM also should go in the master slot, the more that additional power connector is a piece of cake. The problem may be with the heatsink. http://i.imgur.com/7EnTeMt.jpg
