Hi
my question is the same...
Xa2528 laptop, i think i have the smallest cpu what can put it on...so
nforce c51 motherboard chipset is integrates an vga chip like 6100, 6150 which is diabled en was put 8600M gs card on it.
I think this made was possible with a mxm support over pci-e card...
the questions are far complex...
For Asus appears an 8600M gt with ddr3 as upgrade. For Dell they change an 8700M gt to 8800M gt sli card!!!
my problems start on technical descriptions: higher card spec more heat, more power needed...
I think on many upgrade possibilitys but where can i find suitable coolers( if silent edition helps much more)...
i find the biggest power source is 120 W it will be enough?
i think on 8700M gt or 8800M Gt sli MXM card! ( when i write this appears on market some new 9xxxM series card newer chips maybe bugfree not like G84M and G86M what i have)
but nowhere see cooler solutions for laptops!!!
I find a Turion x2 Tl-66 2.3 Ghz too, so can change my cpu...can`t play COD4 while i dont have 1,8 ghz on cpu.
Find cheap quimonda memories for my laptop...not problem with these.
Find fine SSD drives, with time for sure will be betters then HDD-s, ven when i will use two on raid 0.
but remain the questions: where i find information from my bios supporting CPU- upgrade??
at laptopvideo2go website i find a program which say i dont have MXM card upgrade possibility, so no upgrade, but i think this is a software thing...as my G86M 8600m GS.
its the best G86M chip ( better runing then 8400M GT) but offcial from Nvidia came the 8600M gs is G84M ( twice ROPs, shaders with soft unlock then i have). SAD!!!
Oh and i need a suitable and higher performance cooling solution. ( not wheighted more than the laptop itself) while am carry every day so...these days have more than 5 kilo!!!
If someone know where i find accurate informations ill Thank You!!
