what does control panel show ? any errors ?

Quick update on the custom GPU driver that is required for this system. I noticed that when trying to compile a new driver for the system the GPU I was using before is now gone. Not sure if this is a NVCleanstall or nVidia driver change, however I have some good news that I have found another...

CPU temps can get to 95C when @ full load 4.8 GHz @ 100Watts. The CPU then throttles to about 2.8 GHz @ 75 c @ 50Watts. (using CPUburner 19/20 threads to test this) The GPU on the other hand at full load hovers around 68C.

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 {} \; >...
