Hi guys, I need some help from you guys if you wouldn't mind. I'm useless
Specs:-
Samsung RV520
8gb DDR3
I7 2720qm @2.2ghz
1x HDD 500gb
1x HDD 300gb
Nvidia GTX 650 Ti BOOST
EXP GDC BEAST 8.5c
DIY Setup 1.3
DELL 220w PSU
After a lot of messing around I have managed to get this egpu to work when downgrading to 2gb, Which makes me think I just need to change my TOLUD to get it to work. I have read and tried to make a successful DSDT file however I don't really know what I'm doing with these driver edits and haven't been able to get it to work particularly the error fixing on compiling the dsdt.
However When I did have it working on 2gb ram. I ran heaven Bench, The GTX 650 under load makes strange noises and crashes the display driver multiple times. Could any of you more knowledgeable individuals give me a hand please Thanks

Samsung's new Galaxy A9, a premium midrange phone with a design of glass and metal will rock a 6-incher FullHD (1080p) AMOLED panel, minimal bezel and 2.74mm width as well as a 4000 mAh battery with fast charging.
The package will include:
A Snapdragon 652 (Quad-core 1.8GHz ARM Cortex A72 + Quad-core 1.2GHz Cortex A53, Adreno 510 GPU) with 3GB of RAM and internal storage of 32GB, expandable with the help of a microSD card. It will come with a 13MP primary camera with a wide f/1.9 aperture and optical image stabilization. On the front there's an 8MP snapper behind an equally bright lens. A fingerprint sensor inside the home button, complete with Samsung Pay support. Wi-Fi a/b/g/n (no ac, though). Bluetooth v4.1 and GPS/Beidou for positioning as well as NFC.
Unfortunately it will come with a Lollipop 5.1 and pricing and availability remain to be detailed.

A little more than a year ago, NVIDIA, one of the largest graphics processing unit (GPU) companies in the world, claimed Samsung infringed on three of it's core patents and asked the ITC to ban Samsung smartphones and tablets that used Samsung's Exynos SoC (system on chip) and Qualcomm's Snapdragon SoC.
However, an ITC administrative law judge ruled that Samsung and Qualcomm did not infringe on two of NVIDIA's patents and declared the third that they did infringe to be invalid. After the case went to the full ITC commission, it upheld the administrative law judge's ruling in favor of Samsung.
In turn, Samsung counter-sued NVIDIA claiming that it had violated three of Samsung's patents, specifically 6,147,385, 6,173,349 and 7,804,734 which date back to the 1990s covering implementation of SRAM. And now an ITC administrative law judge (ALJ) has found NVIDIA did violate those patents and the case is set to go before the full ITC commission. NVIDIA argues that the patents Samsung used in its countersuit are outdated and no longer used in modern designs: "We look forward to seeking review by the full ITC which will decide this case several months from now." One of the three patents is set to expire in 2016.
NVIDIA, despite being the world leader in visual computing on the desktop, has not had much success in replicating that dominance in mobile designs with it's Tegra SoC and has since moved on to using its technology in other products and applications such as the Drive PX self-driving platform and it's consumer SHIELD android based gaming box.

South Korean site etnews reports that AMD's next generation Greenland GPU, scheduled to be released in Q2 2016, will be produced by both Samsung and Global Foundries using 14 nm FinFET LPP. Since both Samsung and Global Foundries share a common IP for 14 nm LPP, AMD will be in a position to leverage both of them for maximum production capacity.
TSMC, which traditionally produces GPUs for AMD and it's rival NVIDIA, lost AMD's contract due to it's inability to keep up with yield and supply demands.
Greenland is expected to offer 2x the energy efficiency of the current GCN architecture and is AMD's direct competitor to NVIDIA's Pascal.

This is yet another win for Samsung which has managed to steal back Apple from TSMC and will also be producing chips for Qualcomm. It will be interesting to see whether AMD being on 14nm LPP will give it any advantage over NVIDIA who reportedly will be using TSMC's 16nm FinFET+ for Pascal.
