Alienware M17x R3 upgrading to GTX 780m
hazard replied to cheetos82's topic in Alienware M17x / AW 17
Angie, I'm pretty sure widezu69 and a couple of other guys over another forum got the 780m working on their R4s. Its definitely possible however the only thing I'm not 100% sure about is whether they are using a dell 780m or the clevo 780m. My 780m (on its way) is from upgradeyourlaptop guy on ebay and I think its the clevo one. Hopefully the clevo is compatible -

Thanks widezu69 for the confirmation. Is your 780m the dell one or the clevo one? Cant wait till my 780m arrives should be a huge improvement over what I have right now. -

Thanks charlie22911, I don't losing the 3d function however I would like to keep the 120hz refresh rate. The method J95 posted, will it work on the m17x r4 as well? Cheers, -

Hi yoyane, is your m17x the one with 3d (120hz screen)? Curious to see if the new 780m can work on the m17x with 120hz screens. If so I shall go ahead with my 780m purchase Cheers. -
Thanks svl7 very appreciated. Reading through method 2 it looks like I have to go to A10 stock bios first then flash "FPT" A10 unlocked bios since there is no "FPT" version of "A09". Can you please confirm? Cheers.

Hi Guys, My m17x r4 already came with A09 (purchased earlier this year). I was wondering if I can re-flash with the unlocked A09 bios or do I have to flash with a higher version i.e unlocked A10? Cheers.
