@@nimeshs6199 yes mine is still working fine. I just did an updated video on one that came back in defective 14+ months later, but that was only one out of 13. The other 12 I've sold, including the one in my rig, are still working fine.

@JordosTechShack thank you for the reply

no it does not, found out the hard way. this mobo has tmp 2.0 and secure boot but does not support UEFI bios which is required. i did how ever get windows 11 installed but using another computer to install windows 11 on it and when it got to the part to set up windows 11 i turned the computer off moved the ssd to this computer and turned it on and it let me finish setting up the computer. i did this just today so i dont know how well it will run or if there will be any issues. but that is how i got around it.

Their official page says to reach out to their AliExpress store for the bios,. I did that but they never replied to my emails.

@@qwerty32185 it's not software controlled by the motherboard. The case came with fans and an RGB fan controller. It's pretty common with the cheaper fans use their own proprietary connector and RGB controller. They have a motherboard pass-through if you want to use your mobos 3/4 pin connects and software to control it. Even more expensive fans like corsair's iCue fans use their own proprietary connectors and a RGB controller that plugs into the USB header. The addressable and programmable RGB stuff actually started with the case and accessory manufacturers doing their own thing before the motherboard manufacturers started adopting 5 volt 3-pin and 12 volt 4-pin standard connectors.

I go over it in the second video. NVIDIA requires mining and certain soldered mobile gpus to be driver signed and verified by the board partner. If a board partner abandons or otherwise obsoletes the product then no new drivers come out. I had a similar issue with Sony laptops and their soldered gpus. I created a similar driver for those laptops that spoofed the driver signature so that windows thought it was a module mobile GPU and not a soldered one, and would allow you to install and update the newest Nvidia driver. This is also why if you buy one of those sketchy AliExpress mobile gpus repurposed as a desktop GPU you need hacked drivers to get them to work properly. It's strictly an Nvidia artificial firmware limitation. You can get Radeon 6600m repurposed as a desktop card and they don't require any of the driver hackery Nvidia salvaged cards do.

​@@JordosTechShack so you buy a NVIDIA card and NVIDIA gets to decide what you use it for ?? weird also, its impressive how you could write drivers and stuff by yourself... where do you even learn that kind of stuff?

I had a client who had a ton of Sony laptops. Sony stopped updating the GPU driver for it and they used it for CAD and needed the newest driver so I learned how to spoof firmware and driver signing. I use existing patches and exploits made by people who know more than me (I link the projects on my site and in the description). They all refuse to host prepatched drivers, because of Nvidia and proprietary software so the host the exploits and patches separate and you have patch and test the driver yourself. I am not worried about Nvidia sueing me so I took the extra steps of pre-patching and hosting a completed driver. I have more info on everything and benchmarks gaming here" th-cam.com/video/zc3MxLBNxv0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=EErc5VaOvbiaabrh

@@JordosTechShack its just so interesting to me, how there is this whole world of firmware, exploits etc.. and i never even imagined that Nvidia will be doing stuff like this, like limiting the usage of GPUs ( in my opinion it is wrong , there might be more angles to it, but i am not aware of them yet ).... and the fact that people can write drivers, that's just magic to me to be honest. I come from coding exclusively in high level languages, so maybe that's why i have this perspective. I will definitely have to check the projects you link... any other resources you can remember that helped you learn all this? also, what a mad thing to say, that you are not worried about Nvidia suing you.

I was only doing it for benchmarks and the video. I am running windows server 2022 on bare metal. so it's headless most of time, and things like AI, CUDA workloads, and NVEC encoding can't use the Radeon card so it's not a problem.

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!

matx, actually a half a slot smaller than spec Matx

Yh same have you fixed and how?

I did a full updated video on gaming the bandwidth limitations, my driver, etc: th-cam.com/video/zc3MxLBNxv0/w-d-xo.html

@@shadow19121 this video is a year old at this point. The case was $152 when Jeffy ordered it.

@@TysonIsTyson_ It's a standard B450 chipset so you update them through AMDs website. On the Machinist section of my downloads site I have direct links to everything. I plan on expanding and hosting bios files for these motherboards as well. JordosJank.Jcmptech.us

It's either bios-locked or some die stuff going on, because people tried to transplant these chips to full 1080ti boards and it only worked with their original bios and had 4 lanes...

@Drak_Thedp so there's a chance it's bios blocked, if that card could go x8 at least it would be monster for the money(25$)

You have a link for the driver without the NVEC option but apparently it is not working or uploaded (yet?). I have seen some crashes since I installed the driver and suspect that at least one of my P102-100 cards doesn't have NVEC capabilities. I don't know if there is a way to check the cards but based on your information that may be the cause of the crashes. BTW - this was exactly what I was looking for. The main reason being that the "nvcleaninstall" driver generator using the consumer nvidia drivers only supports TCC mode which works great for CUDA under windows (running Ollama or other compute applications) but for virtualization passthrough using Docker/WSL2 WDDM mode is required. Some posts suggests that the ability to switch these cards has been disabled at some point by nvidia and now requires their vGPU drivers. Thanks for your work saving me the effort to try and apply the dartraiden patch myself🙂

Is this still available on AliExpress? It's not showing up for me

@@Titax69 I will tell you if I found

I've been running it about a year. Gaming on 2x1440p umtrawides, and it's rendered the last 32 videos and 9 live streams on my channel. I use its encoder for all the screen capture. One of my customers (Jeffy) bought one for his secondary PC and was very happy with the switch from Nvidia. In fact when another customer came in to have me upgrade him from a 6850XT to a 7900 XTX. Jeffy bought his 6850XT to upgrade a failing 3060 12GB in the main rig. He's all AMD now and regrets nothing. AMD will never take the bleeding edge crown for graphics cards, but dominated the budget and price to performance mid tier.

@ glad to hear it’s good, I physically couldn’t find any NVIDIA graphics card worth buying around £120-140 that could compete with this card

Yes

None of the ones I bought do that, every card ive ordered works fine in afterburner for fan curves.

I had similar issues, use an older version of adrenaline software/drivers. The latest updates tends to mess up things

I see that. Linus Tech Tips and one of his techs got one to function at PCIe x16 1.1

@@freedomination2 i've done this but it's not really worth it because you only gain about 3-5% boost . If you want to do it you need only resolder the filter caps that are obviously missing from the pcb. if you look on the back of the card just above the pci-e connector you can see them looking like this : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : . If you can solder well it's not that hard but again it isn't worth the time effort or cost just buy a better card for 20-50 bucks more.

​@@abbadacedda469 unfortunately I am running windows server with the Windows version of Ollama and I don't have any benchmarks for it in Windows yet. Everything is bare metal server 2022, the only docker container is for the Webui. This video was made the same day I opened the graphics card and made the driver. Everything was done in one day, and uploaded the same day. It was the only day I didn't have anything booked out in my shop or in the field . I'll get benchmarks and at least one more video up by this weekend.

@@JordosTechShack Understood, sounds like you're busy! No rush, was just curious. Thanks for the response!

I haven't ran any games since I am running server 2022. But I do plan on running some game engine based benchmarks, and two of my regulars who I do projects for on this channel, each ordered one after they saw this video. So I will have more content on this card coming out. Its essentially a cut down Titan die, so close to 1080ti in die comparison. However to make it better for mining they cut it down to 4 lanes of PCIE 1.1. It can be modified to be x16 with some surface mounted components but its still 1.1. The driver makes it show up as 10GB 1070, but regardless of PCIE bandwidth restriction if you have an igpu its definitely worth it at the $40 its going for now, but I wouldn't expect 1080 or 1070 performance with the PCIe restrictions.

​@@JordosTechShackhow do you know it can be unlocked to x16? I just got one of those, I see missing caps, gonna place them soon but it says pci x4 @pci x4 in gpuz, so it means it's bios blocked ? Or there are some other components missing on board, gonna take a look anyway

I haven't done it, but my original reddit post on the driver hack I made, people were commenting it's been done by a Russian based YT channel. I haven't seen the video myself but others on Reddit have said it's been done.

@@JordosTechShack I've seen video where the guy adds capacitors to CMP mining card by Nvidia and it works 16x then, but it shows pci x16 @ PCI x4 originally in gpuz, also seen on some forum they say some of the p102 and p104 will work as x16,not much info tho

Uploaded as new video gaming performance. Better than I expected.

Yes, I ordered 1 the last Black Friday and works with ryzen 5 3600 and ryzen 5 4500
