    Am I missing something or is that GTX 1080 desktop Graphics score not that much more than the 24350 score of @GTVEVO on his P870DM 2 x 980m SLI...
    http://www.3dmark.com/compare/fs/7333219

    Is that GTX 1080 stock settings?

    @hmscott your first link is for 3dmark11, not firestrike. For 3dmark11 graphics only score is about 33k to 34k.

    Those FS graphics scores are with a single DT GTX 1080 @ ~2050MHz and an i7-4700MQ. OC'd and not stock.

    Fixed it :)

    Would you please do/post a 3dmark11 run on the GTX 1080 to compare against these GX800VH 2 x 980 SLI scores, with highest Graphics score of 38595? Thank you :)

    Here's this... kind of interesting to look at. This is basically 200W 980 on MXM performance.

    Ooops. Forgot to update AIDA64 Sensor Panel. The GPU label has to be manually typed in.

    Here you go. I have also included the new MSI notebook with 6820k. Note that it is using GDDR5X but showing 3GB and scores 48k with SLI. Prototype maybe and/or buggy 3dmark version.

    Brings a tear to my eye... :cool:

    Almost there, they didn't OC the CPU enough - that June 3rd run with a 48,019 Graphics score, it's like... Magic :D

    I wonder if that is a stock run, or a mild OC... I was thinking SLI 1080 might hit 3dmark11 50-60k Graphics score :confused: :eek: :D

    So, I have my gtx 980 overclocked to 250/250mhz +50mv and Witcher 3 is running really well on max settings, however I have noticed that the gpu temps are sitting around 90c. What are your thoughts about gaming for extended periods at that temperature?

    "Processor power then. We use a X99 / Core i7 5960X Extreme processor clocked at 4400 MHz. With multi-GPU gaming these faster clocked 6-core puppies do show an increase in performance.

    You do need to wonder though if the 10~15% performance increase in lower resolutions really justifies that money, but obviously if you can afford two cards in SLI, you probably will go for the best and fastest infrastructure as well.

    That would be X99 with a nice 6 or 8 or more recent 10-core processor."

    With a nice big showy case, multiple water cooling loops, 1500w+ power supply, a bunch of nice big swooshy fans, and all the things that can be fit into several cubic yards of desktop computer :)

    We haven't got the technology yet to fit all that into a nice svelte 18" screened laptop. Someday :D

    Nope, I'm right there with you. It will NEVER, EVER be OK... period. Don't care what it's got for GPU(s) or how powerful they might be, BGA CPU or GPU will always be a deal killer. If Clevo stops selling notebooks with socketed desktop CPUs and Intel does not go back to offering socketed mobile Extreme CPUs I will never purchase another so-called 'high performance' laptop for the rest of my life. I won't put up with trash like that in my house. If I have to buy trash, it will be something cheap and disposable because that's all BGA is good for. It goes way beyond performance. Upgradability, repairability and serviceability and being able to swap out poorly binned chips for good ones matters a ton.

    Yup, not to mention, buying BGA trash funds the ongoing delinquency of Intel and empowers them to shaft us all with their garbage. We need to cut off their funding and make financial solvency mission-critical for them. If they cannot sell BGA trash, they'll get their act together again and do the right thing for notebook enthusiasts.

    in any case, P870DM owners will rejoice, seeing as the 1080M is indeed compatible with their machines :)

    True it's compatible, but will the cost of the card justifiable ?
    I mean I would rather get a Razer core and non reference 1080 for that price and the performance will be on par.
    But it all depends on TB3 eGPU support.
    @Prema have you had the chance or any info if the BIOS, has decent support ?

    Hue hue ?

    No but honestly, wont it be better than spending 1 k - 1.5k on just a card , to get a external setup that can be fiddled around easily?

    I mean the main thing i hate about the 980 in my system is not being able to adequately cool it at higher clocks. With an eGPU i can even go Hybrid. (Though yes, high clocks might not change much because of the limited bandwidth).

    Not looking at being capped at the moment...More interested in...
    Motherboard
    Alienware 17 R3


    That's a standard socket if im not mistaken. The R3 doesn't have an extra power plug....Or does it now?

    Damn im confused. Is that a MXM card!?
    And by capped i meant, they were going over that mark by much.
    I figured that score was with the 1080 through the AGA.
