Hey, looking for an adapter for y510p. I'm located in the EU and willing to pay reasonable amount for it (like not the price of this laptop, that would defeat the purpose).
Alternatively, I have limited access to industrial grade pcb printing machines and knowhow.  So could reproduce this as a one-off/knockoff. If someone could point me to the schematics that could be very helpful! Thank you

My recommendation is to go with the adapter produced by Swung ([email protected]) . It's not cheap, but it's worthed. To do it by yourself, even if someone send you the schematics, you'll spend like 50 hours on it and some more cash to make it happen. There are several caveats...

My system work fine. I got few strange problems with game Mass Effect Andromeda, when during some cut scenes picture freeze and GPU is disconnect in the system, so i have to reboot. I saw it only in this game. I tested few settings (Ultra, High), but at the end i set Ultra settings and it's fine now.

 

You got such behavior only in one game?

No, it was happening on every game I tried, but it occurred specially quick in GPU intensive games like COD4. I "solved" it underclocking both GPU and memory frequencies to 25% below maximum. Now I can play COD4 with all configs at the top for hours. 

I think it might have something to do with the PCIe x8 speed on the LUB adapter... I just hope that the GPU can work on full speed when I migrate it from the Y510P to a gaming rig!

My GPU is shutting down and the notebook restarting during gaming.

Has anyone else with the LUB adapter faced similar situation?

Context: y510p with LUB adapter, EVGA RTX2070, 650W EVGA PSU. The temperatures are OK, i'm monitoring in HWMonitor.

Are you stay forever on laptop? You can go another way - get GPU for you desktop. It will work in adapter too, but you don't need to sell it later. Just transfer in desktop.

 

Also, on one Russian site was nice review of HL:A and 20 GPUs in VR. You may look table at the end.

Very good review. Amazing work they've done! RTX2060 Super it is!

I'm talking to SH and hope I'll receive my adapter in a few weeks. In the meantime, I would like to get some opinions regarding performance loss due to the LUB interface.

I want to drive an Oculus Quest, which has 2 screens, each with an individual resolution of 1440 × 1600 and a refresh rate of 72 Hz.

I'm considering buying the RTX2060, or even the RTX2060 Super, but I'm afraid that it bottlenecks somewhere, and I end up with the performance of a GTX1650 / 60...

What do you think? RTX2060 Super would be a waste of money or not? If yes, which GPU would you recommend?
