We need these laptop chips turned into low profile varients. It’s a niche part of the market that only 3 cards fill right now, and none of them are great for anything over 1080p. I would love to see a low profile 3060, 70, 80, or even 90. I mean, it can’t be *that* difficult, it just means adding a PciE slot to a chip that’s produced for laptops.
the RTX 3060 laptop version is a bit better than the Desktop version because it has more Cuda cores. But I don't understand the choice of 6gb of ram. Should've been 8gb.
Power limit makes a die weak. 3060 mobile is good no doubt but only if you can match both of their TDPs and provide the cooling accordingly. More ram will consume more power.
10:35 oh they do have traces from them, they're THICC handdrawn polygons to the r005 shunts! Also bloody hell the number of integrated switcher VRM phases on this card. Oh also there's another way to terminate the connectors, like keep in mind, the 12V rails they generally run on a pour in an internal layer, so you can just have them come out of the barrel of the through-hole plating, and that's on this card as well, because there's a dense network of via stitches right next to either side of the shunt, it has to go somewhere, and that somewhere can only conceivably be to the connector hole plating. This PCB is capable of safely ingesting a lot of current. Keep in mind nobody developed a PCB for this. Someone took an existing card, perhaps one with a dead core, something very big and feisty, and dropped the core and put this one on there. I think it's possible that one of DP ports works, at least in hardware, whether the driver allows it is another matter entirely. You don't actually need any components for it, like you might have a diode array to a rail just to protect the port of the GPU against a static or over voltage event, but they aren't functionally needed and they're effectively in parallel to the actual connection.
That thing surprisingly looks like it was built pretty well. It has a good pcb layout and what looks like half decent vrms and inductors. They are also using solid state capacitors. Pcwinmax at least tried to do good. 🤷♀ definitely interesting...
I love the fact that there is some weird hardware out there, but I really wish it worked with no power connector at all. Such an unofficial low-end card would be awesome, yet this needs as much power as a real, proper card. Did you try running it without plugging in the power connectors maybe?
I have exactly this same Pcwinmax card but I can't get it to work, in fact I have two cards and I can't download with any of them, however I start windows with a second card (G210) and the device manager shows it as a basic adapter windows and a yellow triangle, the GPU-Z recognizes that there is a GA106 chip. How can I make it work?
Can you overclock it in afterburner? A lot of the mobile gpus are locked down in laptop’s but if you can OC this with its heavy cooling it might be quite useful for low power builds.
my mom p[assed away i need a gpu i a ma msall streamer do u still have it the gpu an duz the driver for mubll chips install on thsi card oof do u need to install mowhere to get the driver to work

This comment right here. Not only low profile, but single slot would also be great due to many sff pcs not giving room.

3060 has a 192 bit bus meaning it can only either have 6 or 12 GB ram (GDDR6 only comes in 1 or 2 GB packages so 6x32 = 192)

Is it safe to assume this came from AliExpress? I have them do a number of these weird laptop-GPU-in-a-desktop contraptions XD
eBay but probably originally from China

u spelled weird wrong
yeah, isn't that weird? :D

Awesome ❤ where can I buy one ?
we need LP cards and single slot LP cards for SFF builds
given that the connectors don't go anywhere, do you need to still connect them to run the card?
Ayo wtf I have the ROG Strix 3060 and even that one only requires one 8-pin. Very strange.
how tf do you have 7 cores in a 9800X
I blew one up.
@@dinkiethesinkthat's such a fucked answer
i have RTX 3050 TI Laptop Gpu How to install Driver pls help me guys
Did he say how much it is?
He says it was about 100 bucks around the 4:10 mark.
