    Hi everyone,

    it has been a few months since I have heard anything on this topic, so I guess most people are running stable now. If that is the case, can those people with an m17xR2 and a m7970 please tell me what video bios you are stable on and if it is a clevo or a dell card? I'm still on the old RJTech bios and want to see if there is anything better.

    Cheers

    Did everyone move on? No one is modding their R2 anymore?
