Timeline for new BIOS for Alienware X51 R3?
As I asked in another thread, I have an external graphics amplifier on a X51 R3 and when there is an internal video card in the X51 R3 the amplifier connects at PCIe x2 instead of x4. The other thread indicated that there would be a BIOS released that fixes that issue.
My question is now is there a timeline for the point that it would become available?
Thanks

I'd also like to know the status of this, if there are any plans to address this issue.
I am using the PNY GTX 1080 Founders Edition in the Amplifier on a X51 R3. i7-6700.

Are there any updates on this from Dell Tech Support?
Or are we to assume we're S.O.L. since the X51 is discontinued—there will be no more work on this hardware?

Has this been addressed with the latest bios update?

Hi,
For the moment there is no Bios update coming out.
Please let me know the amplifier video card details (model, brand), so I can check with engineering.
