Currently the M1A-subforum is also best fitting for M2A questions:

I’m considering the purchase of a M2A (RTX3080).

According to the TANK03 (= M1A) review at
https://liliputing.com/acemagic-tank03- ... rtx-3080m/
the use of native NVIDIA drivers is not possible:
“And the issue of the GPU’s device ID preventing the installation of NVIDIA drivers is arguably unacceptable for a consumer product. Not only does it mean that Windows users may be running outdated drivers, but it means Linux users cannot use the discrete GPU at all.”

As far as I understood this situation ist still valid for M1A

@barry777 : Please confirm that native NVIDIA drivers for the RTX3080M are installable at the M2A!

Sense there is no place too talk about the m2a i figured i ask in here lol..

For the 3080 model it says out of stock.. Did that sell out that fast??? Or is it not available yet? I ony received the early bird 35% off couple hours ago but even before that the 3080 model was saying out of stock lol..

Wonder how long the eary bird coupon codes last till too? Sense i was thinking of getting the 3080model lol

• I've already written a PM to the board's admin asking for a M2A subforum

• My location is Europe. Several hours ago I was able to order a M2A (i9-12900H, RTX3080, 32 GB RAM, 1 GB SSD), pricing: EUR 959,40

• Current offer is "40% OFF Super Early Bird Code: ACEM2A40 - Limited Time: May 15th - May 16th"

Regarding my NVIDIA-driver-question I've received a reply by service@acemagic.com:
"Dear Customer
Thank you for choosing us

We have confirmed with our technicians, that the independent graphics of M1A are the same as that of M2A. Therefore, their performance is also the same. If there is any problem with the independent graphics of M1A, then the problem of independent graphics of M2A is also the same.

Looking forward to your reply

Best Regards
MiniPC Team"

Oh... seems like its different from the US when it comes too that sense it seems like the 3080 is still in stock on the eur site and the coupon is different too sense US is 35% lol

• My M2A arrived within 48 h after placing my order!

• Pre-installed OS: Windows 11 Home (23H2)

• NVIDIA Graphics Driver 551.76, NVIDIA HD Audio Driver 1.3.40.14, NVIDIA PhysX System Software 9.21.0713

• I've tried to install current "552.44-notebook-win10-win11-64bit-international-dch-whql.exe", but message received was:
  "This NVIDIA graphics driver is not compatible with your device"

My conclusion:

• Of crucial importance is how often ACEMAGIC will keep the patched NVIDIA drivers up-to-date:

• The most current version of the TANK03 related driver available in this forum is: 537.42-nb-1x3x4x-win10-win11-64bit-20231010.exe

Regarding updating the graphics card driver, we will release it later.
