Thanks for your answer.

Great to know that I'm fine with my 180w PSU.

I might choose CEG then. But that's the first time I hear about the v3 Bios. Is it mandatory for the 980m?

hmmm, based on my own wattage numbers and shaving off ~40W to make up for the desktop vs. mobile cpu u should be fine with the 180W adapter. IF u leave everything at stock, that is

ull have to ask eurocom for shipping costs, but ull definitely have to pay import tax! considering that, wouldnt it make more sense for you to buy the 980M here?

MOBILE GPU NVIDIA

theyre based in germany, give you 12 months warranty through any local clevo service center and ull also save on the shipping costs and NO import taxes (inside EU). might come out the same or cheaper than eurocom, but imho the warranty is worth it

I did consider this reseller, but I'm not sure if they send the card flashed with Prema's vBios. I'd rather buy a plug n play card.

Thanks for you answer. If anyone has a 980m inside their p150EM, I'd gladly read their experience.

Hi there !

I'm thinking about upgrading in the upcoming months my P150EM which currently has an i7 3740QM at 2.7GHz, a GTX 675M and 16Gb of RAM.

The upgrade would obviously be a GTX 980M 8Gb. I already updated the bios to Prema's v2. The version is now 1.02.17PM v2 so I think I'm clear.

My concern is the PSU I have. It can output 180W and I don't know if it's going to be enough for all that horsepower.

I'm not planning to overclock it, but let's face it: if I buy this card it's because I want to play countless hours of recent games at ultra settings.

Will my 180W PSU be enough, or will it stop working after 20 min? Or even worst, will it burn to flames and damage my laptop?

This might sounds ridiculous, but for such a pricey laptop and GPU, I'm considering everything.

And last but not least, I'd probably buy the card at Eurocom and I live in France. How much would be the shipping cost and most importantly, will there be duties taxes?

Thanks

Hi I'm new here and I can tell you this is music to my hears. I currently have a P150EM with a i7-3740QM (Ivy) + a GTX 675M, hoping I'll be able to upgrade this bad boy some day !

Cheers to you, Prema !
