thx guys foir good job, it is working just fine i have just one problem, for thermal setup. I can control from bios a thermal condition for CPU but not for GPU... any idea except using hwinfo64? this way im using currently, but should be nice to control it directly from bios. i guess not in this thread, for A14 is already unlocked version out, check in notebookreview.com i did, first use a official stock which will reflashing you back to A11 and after that use save way in first post

Hello, i have 8970M(R9 M290X) and try use it for upgrade from 6990M in my M17X R4. Physically is match everything well even with heatsink from 6990M. At first was necessary reflash vbios to dell stock. But as you are writing - problem is with fan control (speed up too late and it isn't able to keep speed and cooling, but switch off soon), just it is not like fan does not work, but does not work well. Probably will be necessary unlock a bios and change a setup + replace stock fan for different model with other blades. here is that idea: https://www.techinferno.com/index.php?/forums/topic/2699-m17x-cpu-fan-upgrademod-2cfm-104cfm/ If i can suggest take a 7970M. If ill know all of this issues before ill choose it as well.

Hi it is big differences between R3 and R4? Problem is with cooling this system?

Guys, for vbios you can try download from here - https://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/ For marcin3327, yes you are able to do it. check it here - http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/m17x-r4-gtx980m-upgrade.766867/page-27 I hope this will help you.

I hope we will get an answer soon. btw. in nbreview somebody i guess it was raidriar didn't recommend to switch off intel HD, because may lead to black screen and trouble with config. P It is true guys? again thx a lot for any answer.
