GTX780M+ in HM & EM models...

Recommended Posts

after the 780m/880m didnt work at all in the EM i wouldnt have too much hope the 980m will.

prema always said it would work (780m) but it never really did. and i guess it will be the same with the 980m

one should change the thread title into "980M" since thats already made compatible to the p150em by prema ;)

At the beginning it was loud about the possibility of using the 780m in p1x0em. Then it was even louder about the possibilities of use 980m in p1x0em. And suddenly this whole campaign is silenced.

Eurocom relase a video which shows a possibility of installing 980m in Racer 2 (Clevo P150em). Description below of the video tells us sth like:

Detailed Upgrade Process:

-...

-Download and Install latest BIOS

-...

But when we go to upgrades - VGA Showroom and search for 980m, we will find note like:

The Nvidia GTX 980m will work in the following notebooks...

Eurocom X3,X5, X7 and X8.

Sooooo it is but it is not, OK so simple.:33_002:

just wait a little bit until prema has hammered out the last few kinks in his new bios mod for the EM, then the 980M will work in it without flaws :)

Where does even buy a 980M? I have not been able to find one. If it was installed without the bios update what would it do? Would it default to a slower card or just not work?

My P170EM , graphic card is about dead.

Without Mod a GTX980M gives about GTX680M performance apart from creating ACPI problems like brightness control and resume from standby issues etc...

If you have a 900 series card now, make a separate thread and maybe we can improve things through software.

Hi,

has anyone had any success in putting the 980M into the P170EM?

I have done quite a bit of research into this and opinions range from "it can't be done as the P170EM is GPU locked" to "yes it can"

Has anyone actually done it that can share step by step how its done. Not the physical card installation, that's easy enough, but the software/drivers/BIOS setup.

thanks in advance

cheers
