  1. More detail please. What setup are you running? Which version of windows? Did you import game profiles? And have you noticed high GPU/CPU temperatures ?

    setup? what do you mean by that?

    using windows 8.1 pro at 64-bit

    nothig extra imported only Full_profiles_v353.00

    gpu temperature is under 65° and almost never goes higher. cpu temperature is between 60 and 70°

    i suspect its some directX error since older games are running fine like bioshock or league of legends. but newer ones are constantly crashing like wolfenstein the old blood, CS:GO, sims4, warhammer: vermintide

  2. After speaking to a friend it was pointed out that perhaps taking that much power through a USB port would not be a good idea, whether it is or not... I do not know.

    Potestatem

    as far as i know USB 2.0 can get u a max of 2.5 watt (5V, 0.5 Ampere) and USB 3.0 will deliver u a max of 4.5 watt! (5V 0.9A). you shouldnt go over those limits.

    i also have a cooler master but the fans there suck ass. only thing i noticed is that they blow more dust into the laptop.. you can try out IC Diamond thermal compound. only thing i can say it.. it is REALLY REALLY GOOD!

    in idle my GPUs are running about 50°C and the max temperature i had was about 82°C (alienware m18x r2; 980m SLI)

  3. but why would customs flag it and block entry to begin with?

    yes thats what i was wondering too. anyways... we agreed that he is going sending me another SLI KIT (which arrived after a month; and tracking was/is showing its still at the post office at canada). crazy post company over there at canada.. maybe they screwed the first package up too.. who knows

  4. Regarding to the ceg-hardcorecustom pirces for newest nvidia cards is much cheaper to order it from Canada than from them after all taxes. Even if you live in Germany.

    this woodzstack guy sure has the best price, i'll give him that! but the problem is... what if i order it and the customs send the package back... AGAIN? and AGAIN? not sure how many times paypal gonna refund the money. so thats why i thought im gonna check for alternatives first before doing the process again.

  5. When you say you had no way to collect were you busy when they tried to deliver or did customs automatically just sent it back?

    you have to get like an "invitation card" from the customs to actually pick it up. without this "invitation card" they wont give you the package. i didnt received this card. and yes they automatically sent it back. besides the tracking stated that the package was stationed at a city about 400km (or 250 miles) away from me. i cant just walk there, lol.

    well there is an option on ebay price proposal (preisvorschlag). i used it but it got declined.

  6. CEG Hardcore Custom has them as well. They are in Germany, and shipping is free.

    yes saw them too but 1600 euros is a bit much! compared to woodzstacks price. its about 300-400 euros difference. they also arent negotiating. :/

  7. well yes i ordered about a month ago from him.. the problem was.. the package got shipped back by the customs to him (for whatever reason)! i had no option to pick the package up in any way. then he said shipping is not his problem and said i have to pay over 100 CAD so he would ship it again. then i filled in a complain on paypal and got my money refunded.

    what im saying is he still offering me to ship with a lower price now. but in my opinion it was bad customer service and i am looking for some alternatives now before i go through all this trouble again with him.

  8. hello! i want to buy 2 980m GTX 8gb cards for my alienware m18x r2, including a SLI cable.

    have you guys any vendors you could recommend me? maybe you could tell me your experience buying off of them and also list the pricing/website.

    you can write me a private message if you want to. i live in germany by the way!

  9. hello my friends,

    i wanted to connect my ps3 controller via bluetooth through a programm called ds3 tool. the problem is.. it wont show in the driver manager i have "dell wireless 380 bluetooth 4.0 module". has anybody using this program managed to solve this problem?

  10. speaker LED: probably dead, could also be a connection problem

    macro keys: could also be a connection problem

    media board: i am pressing harder than the keyboard but not like how you described it

    you could try to disassemble your laptop (with the help of a guide) and see if the cables are properly connected but be careful you can damage a lot!

  11. Hey Guys, was searching the net and found this program. Seems to work very well for changing the lights with temps and a few other things. Enjoy!

    MiniApps

    i just downloaded this program! it is really nice and you can configure it however you feel! can only recommend it

  12. so for anyone who is going to find this thread and wondering what happened:

    i work as a "systems informatics technician" (systeminformatiker auf deutsch) so we got this machine at work called "ersa PL550" and what i basically did was putting some soldering flux at the sides of the processing unit of the 7970 and reflowed it with the ersa machine slowly rising to 235°C.

    the card is working FOR NOW, lets hope it will work a little longer ;)

  13. hello my friends!

    i have this m18x laptop with two 7970m's. verything was normal i was browsing web. then i wanted to play some games, so i started a game.. and got a freeze. i restarted, windows logo popped up... freeze.

    after that i went to safety mode, and uninstalled intel graphics and amd graphics drivers with a tool. reinstalled again, starting from intel graphics drivers, i got past windows logo. but after a few seconds on desktop.. blue screen.

    after a few times of reinstall with different drivers and a bunch of blue screens like: MEMORY_MANAGEMENT, SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION and PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA i tried switching off 1 graphics card at a time..

    well it worked and after switching that card back i now get a black screen all the time.. no blue screens anymore. obviously i got a faulty card

    so my questions are: has anybody experienced the same issue as me and what did you guys do at this point?
