Is there a way for me to find out if the 970M in my Clevo P650RE6 is 1)Soldered, 2)MXM Version or 3)A Soldered MXM version (which should be OK right?)

can't wait to flash mine as soon as I get enough info.

not impressed with nVidia atm

I second that opinion. I used to have a Lenovo Y50-70 with a 960M. That thing is a tank!

How long can you wait? I am a laptop user for years waiting on AMD to step up their game and now it seems with ZEN and the new RX cards I will finally make a build somewhere (hopefully Q1) next year and live in peace

I had no clue companies still even tried shit like that in this age where basicly the majority is well informed and stuff..

Honestly, allthough it's personal, It is not worth for me.. I've checked some out and yes it looks maybe a bit sharper (honestly only noticable when having a 4k and 1080p monitor side by side) it did not blow me away.

And indeed as many stated the FPS impact due to such a high res is not going to work for me (I just caný afford top of the line GPU's)

Honestly I can NOT wait till AMD joins the fray with theire mobile GPU's. The R series were a dissapointment.

But this sounds amazing nontheless.

Ok, I need some help before doing this (I would lose my shit if this woudl get my system 'bricked')

I have a Clevo P650RE6 GTX 970M 6GB and my BIOS version is 1.05.07 (system model: P65_P67RGRERA)

 

IS it completely SAFE for me to flash my 970M?

Like, does my model meet the requirements to do so?

Do I have to be in discrete mode or hybrid (does it even matter)?

Must I uninstall all my gfx drivers?

And what are the benefits of flashing the vBios versus using the tuning tools that come with the Clevo software suite:

 

This is uncharted territory since I've never flashed a vBios and I'm not exactly sure what the benefits are and if a fallback is possible etc...let's say I would start to get artifacts etc, what then?

It's scary.
