When Is this batboy going for sale ?

Start with the top of the case. You need to tear the whole thing apart, starting from the top.

So this is the point of using NVCleanstall is that we're changing the template, which is 134B to 249C, so that your device gets detected properly.

@vetl - the one listed in the tutorial: GeForce GPU [134B.0008.1414] nvmsoig.inf Try selecting all packages on the "Select Components to install" screen

Here, try this driver I put together: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/883zfb3m41izqquus5tmw/Tank03_NVIDIA_546.29_x64_dch_Notebook_Setup_3080_RTX_249C.exe?rlkey=kv6337sp7bovmjadqomwuw918&dl=0

@vetl I had to try all nvmsoig.info templates 1 by 1 to see which works. I've got the Tank 03 with 3080 also and I follow the same process and I can tell you that on Windows 10 the GeForce GPU template works correctly. But you have to use VEN_10DE&DEV_249C And while nVidia control panel won't...

If you're looking for a small and convenient eGPU, you can pick up an Aorus Gaming Box RX580 from eBay and replace it with a short <200mm GPU. I picked up an ASUS DUAL RTX3060Ti O8G MINI V2 However, you may need to do a voltage mod. Some brands of GPU's won't power on the eGPU enclosure...

Here are some more pictures from my own teardown:

Emulation is fantastic. I can run Killzone 3 RPCS3 full speed no issues.

Keep In mind you can pick this unit up from Aliexpress for $1237, thats for the configuration with RTX 3080 mobile, 16GB RAM and 1TB SSD. That's where I got mine from. Also in terms of performance, I believe this is the 120W variant of the GPU, hence why it performs less than expected. I...

Indeed. Now I'm finally happy I have a spiritual successor to Phantom / Hades Canyon. The form factor is great and the compute power is awesome, such a great little machine, im planning on turning it into a retro pc.

And for those interested in how I reverse engineered it. I downloaded the vanilla version of the nVidia driver (same version as the customized one) Generated a file compare using the following command for both the modded and not original files: find . -type f -exec md5 {} \; >...

To create a working driver, basically download NVCleanstaller and then use the following settings: Select: Manually select a driver version Check box: Show all versions From the drop down list select the latest driver version (at time of writing its: 546.01), so I selected: 546.01 Windows 10...

I've been binging on Aliexpress PC's ... I've got issues, I know ;) But I think I found the perfect little gaming PC: LINK Specs: 12700H - 14 core (6 performance, 8 efficiency) GeForce RTX 3060 Mobile with 12GB RAM 2 x M.2 slots (one is NVME the other is SATA/NVME) 5 x USB 3.0 ports 2 x USB 2.0...

Some more pictures of the machine taken apart and a few comments / observations: Both CPU and GPU are soldered onto the motherboard. Zotac has progressively moved from socketed CPUs and MXM style pcie connector for the GPU to both being soldered on. You can see in one of the photos of the CPU...
