Can i upgrade from an HD8970m to nvidia 880m? Thanks
Excellent. Thank you for this video.
I follow all steps then stuck in boot screen and can't go to bios F2
Please help me
you also do these steps for M17x R4 too right?
Installed gtx 870m i moded the drivers. All works great! Up until it comes to enabling high definition audio. Soon as its enabled boom pink screen after windows logo and thats it. I tried almost everything and now i feel like throwing the laptop against a wall
If I use your driver to get this to work, will I be able to install future updates directly from Nvidia?
Hello , the 780m could work at m17x r2?
Yep guys! I have the solution now for the for the solid color screen when taking these steps to upgrade to the GTX 880M card. There is actually a prerequisite to this. You must have the IDT High Definition Audio driver installed BEFORE doing this! Hopefully this will save someone in here a whole lot of trouble! 🙂
It's nice to still see other people working on this upgrade! I upgraded my M17xR3 a few years ago (I bought an inexpensive GTX 880M off ebay, I think it was an MSI variant) and I've never been able to get an image showing on my laptop screen since. The screen is always black, though, the backlight works. The computer displays an image fine via the HDMI Out to an external monitor, I've just never been able to get it to display on the laptop screen since the upgrade, even with modifying the Nvidia driver. Do you happen to have any experience with that?
Isn't the Gtx 880m better than the 780m?
I follow instructions step by step, why when HDAudio enabled always become blank screen?
Because that's not the original GPU
Hi, will this work if I can't update the bios/drivers before installing the new gpu? the problem is my 580m died and I all my screen is shwoing is a gray screen with white lines moving all the time
i have old gtx460m on this laptop what upgrades recommended for me?
New computer at that point Jesus what processor did you even have? Second gen core i7 with a GTX 670m would be old. That must be a core Duo or something, Sempron not sure but whatever it is it'd have bottlenecked a MXM GPU if you even can find it. Also Dell's BIOS is trash literally the majority of problems with a Dell is the BIOS, the rest is down to the motherboard and the inability to exhaust heat.
Hey there nice video. Very detailed, but unfortunately even though I followed your guide to the letter. I end up with a White or Pink Screen when Windows 10 loads up. The only way to stop it is to disable HDA in the BIOS and Windows 10 will load. I've lodged a support claim. I hope we can sort this out after paying as much as I did plus waiting time to get my 880M for my M17X R3
sorry to hear that. Our guys in support should be able to help you out.
did you find a fix for that as i get that with the 780m this is why i still run windows 7 :)
Hey there over 2 years later and still not working! Despite also having support to try and fix it. Nothing has occurred, my suggestion is someone at Eurocom get a M17X R3, our the 880M in it and run the latest version of Windows 10 to see what I’m talking about and get this issue fixed. Windows 7 isn’t gonna be around forever support wise and the benefits of Windows 10 is being missed out on right now
I did t see a thermal pad size, can you please tell me what size & kind you used? Does it realy matter?
Whats the highest card the mobo wattage and socket can support for this specific model?
What about the thermal pad under the gpu?
I have no idea where to buy affordable MXM card upgrade for my M17R2 (2010) model
I got the gtx770m from yall and i can not find the drivers for it anymore on your site even tho yall still sell those cards, whats the deal man i need the gtx 770m drivers for m17xr3
boa noite tenhho um alien ware m17xr3 queria saber posso colocar placa de video de 8 gb ?
where will i be able to see if my Alienware 17 has an mxm slot to upgrade don't want to remove any unnecessary parts have been doing it up and getting tired of stripping it apart all week lol..
Which 17 do you have? R1, R2, or R3?
@@EurocomTechnology I had a look I can upgrade the graphics card i have GTX 765m upgrading to 980 cost close to €300 for the card thanks for the reply I appreciate it It's R4
Hello! Thank you for the excellent tutorial, I was so lost originally... But I'm still stuck. I have the same laptop and am upgrading to this specific video card. I already installed the 780m and everything is working perfectly at its end... but I am unable to use my integrated Intel graphics card. Whenever I try to enable it in the BIOS, the computer won't boot, it will simply freeze. What did I do wrong? :(
Did you buy the card from us? If so our support guys can give you a hand if you open a support case
Please fill out a support request. web.eurocom.com/ec/supportr()ec
I love the quick reply's from you guys. Quick question. Those are 3.0mm thermal pads correct?
Thanks! We use different thicknesses. When we ship upgrade kits we supply the proper thicknesses so it is an easy upgrade. We have thermal pads ranging from .5mm to 4mm.
How to install BIOS A12 unlocked?
what's the best video card an alienware r3 17 supports?
Hi there, very informative channel, you won me as suscriber. I am trying to upgrade my alienware GPU, I had originally purchased it with an AMD radeon HD 6900m series, I recently bought the 880m nvidia geforce GTX, do I have to download both files listed in the link for drivers, or either one of them will work?
on a side note, I also run windows 8.1, do I have to do disable digital signature for it? thank you in advance
Thanks! I am not sure what you mean by both driver files? Yes, you do need to disable. All info you need is available here in the FAQ: www.eurocom.com/ec/faqs(262)ec
in the link from description, there are two files corresponding to the driver, (M17xR3_880m_120hz, and M17xR3_880m_372.54). Are these files the same, or are they both different files needed for the GPU
They are two different drivers. The one is for 120hz 3D systems. The other is for non 3D systems.
I did everything as instructed in the video, the graphics card works like a charm, I also purchased some parts from your site, delivery time was sooner than I anticipated, thank you so much!
Hi, i think i will go to update my m17x r4 too. How is going with your 880M at 1 month distance?
What about the bios? 780m and above is not plug and play i have a m17xr4 and i need to find a ao11 unlocked bios to flash
I can not find this item NVIDIA GeForce GTX 880 in AMAZON.
I like your video man.
can put a 9th gen mobile GPU ? I know they fit but bios are a issue I really want to upgrade my old pc and make it a beast again will unlocked bios 12 allow this ? anyway I can make it happen thanks
i need some help, i have an existing upgrade with GTX680M with the unlocked bio but recently i was trying to find way to upgrade to win10 but unable so I went to "ENABLE" Internal Graphic Device as per 0.44 seconds. and then after save and exit, my screen won't show anything! completely screen goes blank/black so i cant even get into bio and cant even see anything except keyboard light. what should i do??
I have fixed the issue.
Since nobody answered you in 1 year, I do ask you: how did you solve it?
if you have the drivers to hack the incompatible drivers.
pass me please
Why do the drivers stop at 372.54 for Win7? Thanks for the install video. Worked great.
No problem, and we don't have any idea...
Any way I can install newer drivers?
You can either check out our driver page (www.eurocom.com/ec/main()ec) or submit a support request (web.eurocom.com/ec/supportr()ec)
hey im looking to upgrade the cpu and gpu to something this generation without spending too much money. what are my budget friendly choices to choose from cpu and gpu wise.
That would depend on what laptop you have, my friend. Different laptops support different components.
i have the m17x r3 and it came with an i7 2630qm cpu and a gtx 460m gpu
Here are the cards we offer for that system:
- NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680M;
- NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M;
- NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770M;
- NVIDIA GeForce GTX 880M;
Here is the upgrade page: www.eurocom.com/ec/upgrade(2,262,0)ec
For the CPU you should be able to install any i7 2000 series processor without any problems.
Hi, really good tutorial. I'm about to upgrading my alienware m17x r4, it has an AMD ATI HD7970M (is going to die i think) i would like to get an nvidia 880M from an alienware 17 r1. My question is:
Is the 7970M heatsink compatible?
Is my 7970M fan compatible?
My m17x r4 got an i7-3610QM processor. It's ok?
my ac adapter is a 240W it's ok for this kind of upgrade?
Here are all of our upgrades for the Alienware M17xR4: www.eurocom.com/ec/upgrade(2,259,0)ec For heatsinks you will need the three pipe for 100 Watt cards. Yeah, a 240W AC adapter will be ok. Yes, your CPU is fine. All the info you need is at the link above. Please let me know if you have any questions.
hi, thank you for reply. I forgot to say where i can find unlocked A12 BIOS on my alienware m17x r4. Will the m17x r3 A12 unlocked bios the same or. Do you have a link? just to be sure to don't miss up with this delicate step.
We provide the BIOS when you order the upgrade kit.
You did not mention about vBIOS in the card. There is any specifical vbios which will work for non-throttling issues?
The vbios is already on the card. I am not sure what you are asking.
It seems that the HD audio in the BIOS has to be disabled after installing the Windows 10 Creators Update. Are there any new drivers for Windows 10 to solve thew issue?
Windows just released a new build. please check it out. It solved my other driver problems causing high cpu usage. Yours should be solved too as many feedback has reached them. If not, you can contact them through chat and tell them the problem then they should release a patch after a day or too for you or worse option, you need to go back to the previous build.
Hi
Where do i find the a12 unlocked BIOS? Thank you
Riccardo Scalzo you find biosa12????

Good afternoon! Could you please say does Alienware 17 which by default comes with GTX880M from factory is upgradeable to GTX1080/1070/1060. Or the GTX880M is the limit for this model? Thank you!
Both the GTX 1060 and the GTX 1070 will work however, we do not have any of the 1060 in stock so it is not listed. The GTX 1070 is in stock but special Heatsink modifications are needed to it to work. For more info check out. www.eurocom.com/ec/upgrade(2,263,0)Alienware_17
Hi I have a question. I just upgraded my Alienware M15x first generation from GTX 460m to GTX 880m. But when I'm trying to install the nvidia graphics drivers, it states installing after awhile fails. Do you know a solution for this?
I have already modified the INF files in the DisplayDriver folder to detect my system.
Alienware M15x R1
Intel Core i7 820qm
Ram 8gb
Hdd 500gb
I hope you could assist me. Should i follow this video?
I don't have the 880M as a verified upgrade for the M15x but it is entirely possible. 680M/770M is the highest upgrade I have supported. You can find the drivers and all the info you need here: www.eurocom.com/ec/upgrade(2,268,0)ec Please Please Please let me know if you get the 880M working. I would love to find out!

Now my m15x first generation is running gtx 880m 8gb cache, i7 820qm, 8gb ram.
Thank you once again
Wow! Amazing! Can you show us a video of this? Great work!
Have tried this install on my laptop exactly the same install as this. I've encountered a problem where the integrated graphics is "not detected" in the BIOS. Once I get to the stage of turning on the laptop after installing 880m card, the laptop fails to boot properly and goes to a screen saying "failed to boot due to a recent software or hardware change" any suggestions as I'm about ready to throw this laptop out haha
hello . whats is the max gpu upgrade on alienware m17x r3 ? i want to upgrade but dont know whats is the best gpu what i can upgrade. i looking about gtx8xx or 9xx series if its posible ?
You can look at your options here: www.eurocom.com/ec/upgrade(2,262,0)ec
hey eurocom i have alienware 17 gtx 770m with i7-4700MQ and my question is (is it upgradable and if it does can u link me to one of ur videos if u had upgraded one similar before
+karim dabliz Yes, the Alienware 17 (r5) is upgradeable. You can check this video: ruclips.net/video/fh8ockwbDiE/видео.html and check our upgrade pages here: www.eurocom.com/ec/upgrade(2,263,0)ec
+EurocomTechnology dude you are awsome i am going to subscribe ur channel !! thanks so much
karim dabliz No. You are awesome! Good luck with the upgrade!
It's kinda amazing that you still have this laptop in mint condition. I already had issues with it after 6 months, and the build quality for a laptop like this is awful. I could write a full page of faults this laptop had. Biggest regret I had.
IF you are unhappy you can take advantage of the Eurocom Trade in Program www.eurocom.com/ec/trade()ec
i have one still in excellent condition. 120hz screen with the 3d glasses and put in a SSD. had the 460M in it blow out twice but each time was a 60 dollar ebay fix. The laptop is like 7 years old now and other than the battery being completely ruined it runs like a top as a backup.
I have a 5 year old alienware 17 r5 and it still works flawlessly, getting a bit slow due to age but never had a problem
I just bought my R3 back off my mate today. I originally bought it brand new 7-8 years ago. I have an 880M ready to go in. It was a great machine for me originally and was perfect for my mate too. I still have two M18x R2’s. Build quality on these old machines was fantastic. Sometimes people get a lemon though I guess.
Funny! I’ve had my 17 for 5 years now and it’s been the best system I’ve ever owned. Never had any issues in all that time
So the old m17x r3 can 100% fit gtx870m and gtx880m? I heard so time it causes sound problems!
Sure it can. You must have to make some modified for it
Hi imterested on upgrading my r3, mine came with 3d onboard. I see a note in your website NONE OF THE VIDEO CARDS LISTED WILL SUPPORT 3D ON BOARD
A 120HZ LCD PANEL IS SUPPORTED BUT IT WILL NOT DISPLAY 3D IMAGES
Is this means that i will loose 3d capability should i upgraded to 880m?
If its onboard you cannot upgrade.
wait when i said mine on board is that its 3d on my vga card gtx 460m supports 3d, not the motherbaord. so can i upgrade it
The last video card to support 3D was the GTX 780m. Anything after that will not support 3D
The last video card to support 3D is the GTX 780m Thanks

does anyone know where to grab alienware a12 unlocked bios?
Hello friend and thank you for a great guide, however i have encountered a little issue.
After installing the new GPU my windows goes blue screen on login. If i switch the IGD back on, windows loads normally but no sign of Nvidia in the device manager.
Will a clean Windows installation with the IGD disabled fix this? (windows 7)
Thank you and best regards.
Please ensure you are following the upgrade checklist. We always recommend upgrading your BIOS to the most up to date version.
if i do upgrade it to a14, will i still have the "unlocked" options? also, i did everything listed on your description... i hope its not a physical problem with the card itself.
It could be a problem with your card. Did you get your card from us?
I did not, i haven't even know of your existence before i have purchased the card... Oh man i really hope its not defect...
Ziv Meidar Please contact the seller! Good luck!

hello eurocom, i need help with my laptop. I have an Alienware m17xr3, I switched the default graphics that came with (AMD ATI 6990m) to a Nvidia GTX 880m,
which is the latest known video card to work with windows 8.1, at that point it was working fine until I tried installing windows 10. Display was showing a white screen, and every time I tried resetting the laptop, it was not going past the boot stage without showing that white screen. Once again I reset to the BIOS, and switched the display mode from PEG to IGFX. And now it’s stuck at no POST with 6 beeps. at that point I took it to a repair shop, but its stuck at the alienware logo without ever reaching the OS. How can I fix this issue?
Did you install the gtx 880m yourself?
Did you need any EUROCOM controller?
And as of today, your problem with your laptop was solved?
@@animelatam4364 when I installed it I had some compatibility issues with the audio, I had to get me an external audio plug in, as I had to have audio disabled in the BIOS, it works fine with it, and so far I had no other issues, as long as the drivers dont go past the one recommended in the Nvidia website, it happened to me once that I couldnt install it because I forgot to disable the digital license

Will Quadro cards be compatible with this alienware m17xr3? Because I have seen that with the alienware m15x it is
they make it compatible with Quadro and in gtx I have seen how they update it with up to 980m
I just bought this for $400.00 Did I get ripped off for a 2015 laptop. I just need it to process photography using Photoshop and Lightroom.

Hi! Is it possible to upgrade my r3 with a gtx 860m?
Theoretically. We have the 880M supported but we do have 860M available as well. You can see our tested and supported options here: www.eurocom.com/ec/upgrade(2,262,0)ec
