eGPU experiences [version 2.0]
Northern-Loop replied to Tech Inferno Fan's topic in DIY e-GPU Projects
When my gtx 670 steps up from 1.1 to 2.0 the driver crashes and I lose all performance. It's fine running at 1.1 all day but only maxes out around 30FPS Can someone let me know the correct procedure for using the DIY setup? Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2 -
Can't open the NVIDIA Control Panel when eGPU connected
Northern-Loop replied to kasten's topic in DIY e-GPU Projects
As far as I can tell it's caused by Windows still seeing the dGPU and thus Nvidia control panel is getting confused. Happens in Windows 7 and 8 for me. Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2 -

Thanks, I didn't see the update. Will install later. Yeah I have the M6700 with the LCD panel. Without your setup my laptop will see the GTX 670 and partly use it for CUDA and OpenGL. I'm just not getting very good performance out of it. I'm using the ViDock which seems to work okay. With the eGPU plugged in I have 3 working GPUs in Windows. Can't take advantage of optimus though as the control panel won't open. Complains about no Nvidia GPU Disable optimus in the bios and I can use dGPU and eGPU in the Nvidia control panel but it uses the dGPU for the main tasks. The reason I have purchased the eGPU is for the CUDA rendering and if I get some higher FPS for games it's a bonus. Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2 -

Hi UncleJoe, Is it possible you could assist me as I have a Dell M6700 and struggling to fix a couple of issues? 1. In the Intel.txt file there is no Series 7 chipset settings so I can't seem to run at the full 5gig? 2. If I try the standard disable dGPU my system hangs? -

Do I need the Setup 1x to enable optimus? My GTX670 is enabled and working but I can't get into the Nvidia control panel because it says there is no Nvidia GPUs installed. I have 2, the disabled dGPU Quadro 3000m and my eGPU GTX670 -

Northern-Loop replied to kasten's topic in DIY e-GPU Projects
Can anyone help on this? I only have 14 days with the GPU before I have to send it back for a refund if it doesnt work. At the moment I can not enable optimus with the dGPU and eGPU in the system. -

Bump I also have this problem. The my EGPU unplugged Nvidia Optimus works fine. I have tried disabling my dGPU but still says the same error message. -

Do you have the Nvidia GTX 670 driver with the optimus enabled? - I have tried to amend the NVAM.INF file but the Nvidia control panel still complains that there is no Nvidia GPU enabled. -

Ah right thanks, I have 3 GPUs installed, Intel 4000 Quadro k3000M GTX 670 The Nvidia control panel says I dont have a Nvidia GPU installed when the GTX is installed. If I disable the Intel 4000 I can get in there with the 2 Nvidia GPUs but I dont have optimus setting. Not sure how to get it working? -

Hello, I have a Dell M6700 with a EC 2 Slot and I have purchased a Vidock to use with GTX 670 but I can only seem to run it at 1x @ 1.1/2.0? Is the 1x the best I can hope for? The performance isn't the best using that. 1 other thing if I enable the Intel 4000 GPU the Nvidia control panel complains that I don't have a Nvidia GPU installed? dGPU is Quadro k3000M
