omega939 Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Here's the actual pic of the card and the heatsink... I hope someone out there try it out soon with their MSI GT 60(16F3)/70 nb's Actual GPU was taken off from the latest MSI GT60 notebook. I hope the old (163F-GT60-ONC) is PnP also. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godfafa Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Thank you,Now I see why they need a new heatsink for those who bought 880m GT72. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

godfafa Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 @KhenglishNice pics. Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clyde Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Probably the same chips and pcb in both GPUs. Can someone get 4GB GDDR5 chips? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omega939 Posted October 24, 2014 Author Share Posted October 24, 2014 @KhenglishDoes it mean that even the old heatsink for GT60 (780/880m) could actually fit on with 980/970m? Thermal pads is the answer to fill those gaps?Can someone get 4GB GDDR5 chips? its the same layout design with the 8GB variant that Khenglish posted.... Btw clevo/sager mxm gpu's are MSI compatible too :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the old (163F-GT60-ONC) is PnP also. This is a picture of the 880m. It looks like those silver components on top are not in the same place so a new heatsink is going to be required to upgrade a 880m to a 980m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omega939 Posted October 29, 2014 Author Share Posted October 29, 2014 that's an 870m but still the same as with 880m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ApolloX75 Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 How different are these new heatsinks from the older 570m/580m cards in the GT780 series? I'm tempted to try an upgrade to the 970m... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
