Hmm k. So around US$900

Yeah.. still a little steep for no good reason. It should just be US$700 like previous MXM modules. Let's say $750 at the worst... but that extra $150 tax for nothing isn't cool. It's not a fair price.

 

i'll hold out till gtx 11.

 

And people like myself with 980m sli have to pay out the ass to go 1080sli which is even worse. Hooray for new chassis -_-

so long as i can get Forza (not Fortza....bloody yanks!) Horizon 3 on a gtx 980 at 1080p60 it's all good.

 

1080 SLI is a whole different ball game from 980M SLI to be fair.

 

Ye I think a lot of people underestimate the huge difference between 980M SLI and 1080SLI. Just like people underestimate the 1070, it's basically just as fast as my 980Ti. ****ing insane.

 

Is the GTX 1070's heatsink the same used on the 980M?

 

I just saw someone compare my OC'd to all hell 980 Firestrike score to a stock 1070 and call out that the 1070 is "only" "9%" faster.
People man.

The 1070 will be a decent upgrade for people going from a 980m or who need that little bit of extra performance over the 980.

 

you lost me at " THUNDER JUSTICE COCK OF DIAMONDS"

 

I'll have you know thunder justice cock of diamonds is a highly respected member of the overclocking community

 

lol.

 

The game is not optimized worth poo. I am seeing about half the GPU being utilized. Frustrating.

to get full optimization you need to buy the dlc "xbox 1"

 

LOL, No doubt

i'll give it a try when it unlocks. i might have to chuck it to high-medium settings to get rock solid 60fps. besides, the graphical comparisons are minor though anisotropic filtering is obviously visible on low.

 

Cam these Windows 10 games run beyond 60fps yet? or are they still capped at 60?

 

They unlocked it ages ago and allow for g-sync/freesync. it got patched into Win10 TH2 mid this year i think as games like Quantum Break and FM6 Apex got patches that allowed it to run higher than 60fps. i could get apex over 60fps easy even up to 75fps.

all PC footage i have seen is at 60fps and my guess is you can go higher.

 

Not worth a penny to me. Just my 2 cents worth

 

Phoenix, can't you plug a tactx keyboard into that beast to get some Alien feels back, like a binky or a woobie, sumthin to pacify your grouchy a$$ & get ya through this?

• can it use or run a dual-USB keyboard?

Look, I bought this one 5weeks ago for twenty dolla / shipped, brand new, like new new: "Item is brand new, the defect that I found its that when you type f it types fe & also when you type e it types ef' ... that's exactly what it did, all it needed was took apart & a wrinkle in the film between E-F smoothed out, fixed it, dude lost out bigtime. It sits in the box, so nice & sweet I can't even use it

 

it's practically 25% of the computer already. the idea of just holding out till the GTX1180 even better.

 

Oh i definitely understand. Its for users who dont dabble in the latest and great hardcore games, or just need something for FHD resolution.

 

no bro, a laptop to me has to have everything built in, not interested in graphics amplifiers, external monitors, or external keyboards, nada. Just the taptop, thank you sir.

 

The only external I added to mine was a USB 3.0 BD/DVD reader/writer.

I love those high bitrate Blu-Ray movies at 1080p. Much better than that streaming stuff.

 

yeah same here, I only used it like twice in 6 months but it's nice to have, other than that, I don't want anything that I have to constantly have externally connected to use, I might as well just buy a desktop now which I hate due to the many connections of devices I have to make. I like it all in one neat package.

 

1070 is a decent upgrade in performance for those with single 980m and can't afford a new machine. Not if you have a single 980 graphics

 

Depends how much fun you can have overclocking really. The 1070 is around the 980ti which was a large step up from the 980.

 

The day you will need a graphic tablet to draw is the day this will change xD

 

My wife actually does not use a mouse at all, she does everything via her wacom tablet.

 

Dear @Meaker@Sager and @Papusan , what if I have 2 X 980m's in SLI, is it worth to upgrade? or this is the end of this machine? any hope in the future?

 

Our first hope is the 1070 it has been achieve, 2nd is 2X 1070 SLI, 3rd will be 1X 1080, nothing impossible... wait and see. Big games are going around.

 

Yeah, I'm also interested in the possibility. Any idea how much an upgrade to an 1070 would be from a pair of 980m SLIs?

 

also, if you note in the eurocom pic, the 1070 is cheaper than a 980 desktop card. Wow...

 

The best bet is Wait and see what will happen. Upgrade to Single 1070 vs 980m Sli isn't an option. 1080 could be if you sell your two 980m. Also 1070 Sli could be an option if this setup worked and you got a decent price for your older graphics as stated.

 

1070 on ebay

http://m.ebay.com/itm/Clevo-P870DM-...R5-MXM-3-200W-No-SLI-/112144267554?nav=SEARCH

 

Thats cuz the 980 card is superior card bruh!

 

Agree, the 980 has superior graphicalness bruh!

 

so a 980 is still good?

 

If your resolution is 1080p then yes 980 is great.

If you're on 4K or even 2560x1440 @ 120hz then no.

 

that's as far as my display will go

 

eGPU Preliminary tests.

http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/clevo-overclockers-lounge.788975/page-534#post-10354119

TLDR' : Get a 1070 if you really want to go the eGPU way. Will be way cheaper than investing in an MXM 1070/1080.

1080 is maxing out the interface. At least i think so, after the first few tests.

 

@bloodhawk

since ur running an egpu setup can u enumerate the hardware used by you ? for eg: ur using razer core or akito tb3 enclosure or some other hardware.

 

Inxtron TB3 HDK (basically the Akitio TB3 enclosure) + ASUS Strix 1080 OC + P870DM-G.

I would stay away from the Core, unless you really want a pre-built product and dont mind paying extra for it. And it seems to be more of a hassle to the Core working than a standard TB3 PCIe box.

 

so what drivers did u use stock tb3 drivers and was it plug and play or too much of hassle, did u use razer drivers ?
It would be great if u would enumerate your process for enabling egpu on ur laptop.

 

Take GPU Plug into the Card/Box. DDU old Drivers, Install latest drivers. Shutdown system , connect TB3 cable. And system should automatically switch to it. At least it did for me.
And works flawlessly.
All standard drivers. Nothing from Razer.

 

so u delete the mobility drivers and install desktop drivers and as for TB3 drivers u got it directly from intel right ?
And i saw that u did some benches in ur opinion how much of a perf. hit ur seeing cause Tb3 shares lanes with all connected devices like m.2 driver ur usb ports dp ports etc so can u try a vanilla run with only one m.2 drive connected and no usb devices and external displays.

also was there any perf. hit between the internal display and external display ?

 

I never had any mobility drivers. Always been using the desktop drivers. TB3 drivers that come from Clevo/Intel (not sure).

As for a performance hit, i guess you are looking at about 20%?

Havent tested the internal display. Not really going to, since i know the performance will go down even further. So thats that. Maybe take out another 15-20% for that.

I really dont plan on doing a test without the m.2 drives. Since those are my boot drives. End of the day this was just an side test to see how well the TB3 eGPU performs.

 

Can a OC'd 1070 in same eGPU setup compete with the score you get from your tested 1080? As your tested 1080 have gimped score duo eGPU setup. Or will a max oc'd 1070 also be gimped duo eGPU?

 

@Mr. Fox was talking about flashing the TB3 port in DM1 with special firmware, is this can be useful in this conversation?
