All Powerful M17X R3 Trying to replace my dead HD 6990M with a AMD Firepro M6100

As the title says I'm trying to install a AMD Firepro M6100.

I'll download the unlocked A12 BIOS (www. Aw -community.com/forum/files/file/241-alienware-m17x-r3-unlocked-system-bios/) Will let you guys know how it goes once

Will post thermals before and after I replace the MX-4 with liquid metal as well. Right now CPU hits 85c, the the unlocked BIOS to test GPU.

Update: After the BIOS update the GPU is still not recognized. But I do have CPU overclocking unlocked for thermal testing with the liquid metal.

Replaced the CPU thermal paste with liquid metal. and wow massive difference. After setting thermal limit to 90c with MX-4 the CPU hit max temps 90c / 90c. With liquid metal temps drop down to 76c / 90c. Major improvement over stock, would recommend to get the most out of any laptop. Follow a guild or you could kill your computer, there are extra step when using liquid metal.
