Two things I learned in this video: 1. You are a genius with golden hands. 2. I am a total dummy when it comes to this, and could not even dream of doing this myself. I wouldn't even know where to start. And I have no idea what those parts even are.
MXM held such promise, too bad the GPU manufacturers didn't set a single standard for it and left it up to the notebook manufacturers and it has all but failed. I can get an RTX 2080 MXM card for my Clevo-based machine but that's the end of the line as it doesn't look like there will be any RTX Super MXM cards (or beyond).
maybe they'll upgrade them with RTX 3000, who knows? the super cards probably didn't seem like a significant upgrade for them to launch a whole manufacturing line. The main issue with mxm is you need to have a thicker laptop, and most people don't wanna carry around a brick like that, but it definitely has it's use, I hope all laptops will be upgradeable in the future somehow, without sacrificing on thickness too much, as I don't need a super thin laptop either, I want to have all needed ports and a large enough battery, not to mention decent cooling.

This is not so easy to change the graphics card as it seems like. I'm having an issue with GTX 880M and I got a 970M but it looks like VBiOS update neccessary to work with my notebook. Can you please tell me, how did you change it? It was working so simply?

@griffensander What about CPU temperature in your laptop? Can you tell what the CPU heatsink you have in this set? I replaced cpu in my m6700 with 3940xm and used 55w tpd heatsink (at0mf0050vl) but CPU starts to heat up to 100 C degrees. Don't know, what wrong is.
hi sir i want to ask i have alienware 17 with i7-4700qm and gtx 880m (broken ) i replace it with m1000m (i buy it with 20 dollars ) it so slow so i want to buy another mxm gpu i find gtx 980 150 dollar so expensive and i find gtx 970m and quadro m4000m and m3000m under 100 dollar wat is the best for me and thx
These are still monsters 12 years later. From the factory these arent that great for gaming but with a 980m you can still drive that 1080p displays with conservative settings, makes the fact thats its more of a luggable than a laptop justified in its GPU performance. Battery life, we dont talk about that.
I'm going to be upgrading my m6800 to a gtx 980m as well. Need to get the Nvidia heatsink as I've got a Firepro m6100 2GB MXM card installed currently. Should give me a fairly decent bump in performance.
Actually picked up an Tesla M6 for £72 ($86USD Roughly). Similar to the GTX 980m. Got the Nvidia heatsink for £8, another 8GB DDRL 1600 for £12 and picked up an i7 4700qm for £50.
@@mikedaplioguy7734 Yep! I've had no issues with overheating etc. Roughly around the same performance as a GTX 1650 so even for its age, still a decent performance.
How can I do this kind of mod? I have a M6600 with a Quadro 3000M and I have some GTX580M (From an Alienware M18X) around I put one of them inside and it won't seems to be recognized those
Great video! however i have a question... I'm going to buy a m6800 and upgrade it to a GTX 980m too. Is it easy to install like the m6700? I read some forums online and one guy said I will have to mod the heatsink which is way too crazy for me...
That’s awesome! I wanted to do this back in the day but only ever upgraded a laptop CPU from a sandybridge i3 to a i7. It was a huge jump in performance and it got much better battery life when undervolted on the same old battery. I had to upgrade to something smaller for school and couldn’t keep it around. The future for upgradable laptops looks bleak since so few people ended up doing it and almost all laptops are soldered together for “thinness”.
on the other hand, there are "green" friends who are for the ecology of our planet, they would have such a task - that is, to give them another responsibility - not to spend a lot of garbage in electronics, otherwise things will become disposable like these plastic bottles ...
@@robot_0121 Most modern laptops are like those bottles given that most break after the warranty expires due to poor design and overall quality being poor otherwise it is death by obsolescence after two or three years due to not having sodimm slots ect. Those with the emmc ssds are the worst by far as those die once the ssd fails.
Thank you so much for the tutorial! Bought one of these laptops and have been looking for an upgrade to the Quadro K4000M that shipped with it, glad to see this works. May I ask, for drivers do the standard ones from Nvidia's website for the 980M (Standard Windows, not DCH) work, or do they need modification?
I know there are external graphics cards could be connected to laptops (as using cable m.2 ngff -hdmi) using an external dock/adaptor.. i ask if there are External docks/adaptors for mobile graphics card as you used in video?
I ve got really important question, do I need specific GTX980M to upgrade my m6700? I can see a lot of gtx980m from Alienware or MSI, I'm just not sure if that ll do the job.
Alienware GPUs are just re-labeled Dell GPUs, so they should work fine. GPUs from other OEMs can be hit-or-miss. They may work perfect, they may work perfect but not sleep properly, or they may not work at all. If you want to play it safe, Dell/Alienware GPUs are the best bet.

Very nice video. I'm looking to upgrade GPU on my m6700, but looking more towards the Radeon Pro WX7100 MXM (from 7200 precisions). Did you also consider radeons for this?
I bought a M6700 with a 3740qm. I'm planning on using my Clevo GTX 970m 6gb that I had from my dead Clevo p157sm. The vbios worked in my hP 8760w, so hopefully it works on the m6700. Lol
Hello, I have the very same M6700 and now choosing between 980m and 970m for upgrade. It would be very helpful to know, how hot 980m in the games, as it has 100 Watt TDP instead of 970m's 75 Watt. Thank you.
Hello, can you link to a guide to mod the ini file… I’m currently rocking, a m4700 and I put a m2200(2017) but I’ve had my eyes on a gtx 1650, and I know I’m going to run into the handshake problem.. or signature.. and yes, I know I could probably just get some used gaming laptop on eBay.. for about the same price I’ve invest in everything.. but what’s the fun in that? Lol but great video man!
yup, works the same as the m6700 insofar as upgradeability, except the m6700 can take a 4k eDP 120hz sharp IPS display with mods, and a quadro P5000 (gtx 1070) with an engineering sample vbios so long as one has an eDP panel, the m6800 cannot do this without coming with a 3d screen or touch screen model afaik.
Yes. Be aware though that you'll likely have to use a custom modded driver. Not as intimidating as it sounds, here's a gide on how to do it: null-src.com/posts/nvidia-notebook-driver-inf-mod/post.php
Hi and GREAT videeo! Do you know if it is possible to upgrade the gpu on a Lenovo G780 Laptop? I got a great i7 cpu and 16GB of fast G.Skill ram + a new Samsung 870 ssd, so i want more GPU power... It should be possible, don´t you think? All the best from Denmark
In the case of my Dell Precision M6700, there is no GPU whitelist. That said, you can't just put any card in. Only Kepler and Maxwell based cards are compatible as well as a few AMD cards. Keep in mind, many other laptops DO have whitelists though.
Hi, I've did the same thing, but from Firepro M6000 to 970M 6 gb gpu, as i know dell/alienware didn't made 9xx series mxm card, then no vbios change available, so the driver has to be modded to work.
Hi! You just replace card and everything works okay?! No dancing around BIOS settings and updates??? Cause I know, that basic BIOS supports only quadro cards 3000,4000,5000 and Radeon Firepro m6000. Tell me more, cause tomorrow my basic GPU firepro 6000m was burned, and I need to replace it by something more powerful, u know. Thanks man!
I'm planning on upgrading my m6700 covet that currently has a k5000m to the 980m. I'm curious what thickness of thermal pads you used on yours with the additional modules.

How to know my laptop supports which graphics card?
Watching on my Precision M6800, I've been needing to upgrade it a bit for quite a bit now.
Hi. Will it now play 4K videos? I have an M6800 with K5100m 8GB but it doesn't support 4K. Thanks.
Yes, it should. I haven't tested it though because I don't have a 4k display.
Very nice video. I'm looking to upgrade GPU on my m6700, but looking more towards the Radeon Pro WX7100 MXM (from 7200 precisions). Did you also consider radeons for this?
Currently my laptop has 920m ddr3 gpu , can I upgrade to 980m or better (suggest please)
hey i got a question i got intel hd graphics can i buy a gpu chip and put it in my laptop?
I bought a M6700 with a 3740qm. I'm planning on using my Clevo GTX 970m 6gb that I had from my dead Clevo p157sm. The vbios worked in my hP 8760w, so hopefully it works on the m6700. Lol
I plan to Buy a Precision 4800, Its compatible with this gpu?
i changed the video card but i can't find it please can you tell me what to do
Thats really cool bro!
How about dell precision 7510?? Can I upgrade the gpu?
Bro how can I get a 4gb nvidia graphics for my Dell precision m4600. Is it possible?
Hello, I have the very same M6700 and now choosing between 980m and 970m for upgrade. It would be very helpful to know, how hot 980m in the games, as it has 100 Watt TDP instead of 970m's 75 Watt. Thank you.
I don’t use this laptop anymore, but the 980m never overheated. IIRC it ran around 80c during extended loads.
this is great
Hello, can you link to a guide to mod the ini file… I’m currently rocking, a m4700 and I put a m2200(2017) but I’ve had my eyes on a gtx 1650, and I know I’m going to run into the handshake problem.. or signature.. and yes, I know I could probably just get some used gaming laptop on eBay.. for about the same price I’ve invest in everything.. but what’s the fun in that? Lol but great video man!
do you know if those ship from china gtx 980m are legit? thats all I can find on ebay unfortunately.
hey i got dell inspiron 3542 can i upgrade it to gtx graphic card?
Oh ok, great vídeo, so a dell m6800 also accepts a gtx 980m? Do I have to make some kind of hardware change for this?
yup, works the same as the m6700 insofar as upgradeability, except the m6700 can take a 4k eDP 120hz sharp IPS display with mods, and a quadro P5000 (gtx 1070) with an engineering sample vbios so long as one has an eDP panel, the m6800 cannot do this without coming with a 3d screen or touch screen model afaik.

Yes. Be aware though that you'll likely have to use a custom modded driver. Not as intimidating as it sounds, here's a gide on how to do it: null-src.com/posts/nvidia-notebook-driver-inf-mod/post.php

Hi and GREAT videeo! Do you know if it is possible to upgrade the gpu on a Lenovo G780 Laptop? I got a great i7 cpu and 16GB of fast G.Skill ram + a new Samsung 870 ssd, so i want more GPU power... It should be possible, don´t you think? All the best from Denmark
are there only certain whitelisted cards or can you put in any as long as its MXM?
In the case of my Dell Precision M6700, there is no GPU whitelist. That said, you can't just put any card in. Only Kepler and Maxwell based cards are compatible as well as a few AMD cards.
Keep in mind, many other laptops DO have whitelists though.
Hi, I've did the same thing, but from Firepro M6000 to 970M 6 gb gpu, as i know dell/alienware didn't made 9xx series mxm card, then no vbios change available, so the driver has to be modded to work.
Hi! You just replace card and everything works okay?! No dancing around BIOS settings and updates??? Cause I know, that basic BIOS supports only quadro cards 3000,4000,5000 and Radeon Firepro m6000. Tell me more, cause tomorrow my basic GPU firepro 6000m was burned, and I need to replace it by something more powerful, u know. Thanks man!
did u try it?
How understand wich laptop have MXM type B or type A
I'm planning on upgrading my m6700 covet that currently has a k5000m to the 980m.
I'm curious what thickness of thermal pads you used on yours with the additional modules.
I believe I stacked some up to get the required height. My 980m came with it's thermal pads still attached.
