Any recommendation for using the 7620AC? Do you have a driver you prefer?

The last 7620AC I tried to use didn't work . I don't know if I had the wrong driver or a bad card. I reordered and if that still doesn't work I will try the 1202.

How about a bigfoot killer? Are then any good?

if I cannot use the card what card should I use? It tough finding a net card.

My wireless card died and was thinking of installing a Bigfoot doubleshot AC 1525, It cost 39.99 on amazon. Since this is a half card will it still work in my P170EM or should I get an older card?

Those are soldered only as far as I know, as they are the 860M Maxwell rebadge, and that was soldered only. 965M would be the card you're looking to see about.

Your right, I checked Eurocom and they have them instock,I am just not sure if they are worth the upgrade.

Has anyone tried a 960m?

thread seems dead

What about installing one of the new GTX 960m? That is if you can find one.

I am beginning to think the upgrade may not be economical.

Much more affordable...Thanks.

I am just worried about the install procedure.

Has anyone updated the CPU?

I found this: GTX 970M GTX970M 6G DDR5 192bit VGA Video Card For Clevo P375SM P170EM P150EM P157SM P151SM P150SM P170SM P177SM P370SM P570EM-in Graphics Cards from Computer & Office on Aliexpress.com | Alibaba Group

Has anyone bought from this site?

Has anyone made a video installing the 980m? I am interested seeing how its done?

Out of all the models that exist, which one is the most futureproof? My Sager/clevo 170EM turned out to be wanting and I haven't heard of any manufacture that keeps there bios current. The new Skylark cpu is coming out in July with new motherboard requirement. I am not sure if one was to buy a current laptop, it will be upgradeable next year.

i have a 980m arriving on monday for my p170em, i was writing with prema about bios and stuff but atm he doesn t reply. but i understand that prema is a very busy man.

ill have a new thread opened by the arriving of the 980m or maybe tomorrow already

cheers

Can I get a link from where you bought the card?

Where does even buy a 980M? I have not been able to find one. If it was installed without the bios update what would it do? Would it default to a slower card or just not work?

My P170EM , graphic card is about dead.

I am having a problem with my GTX675m. Its done, I keep getting the BSOD after playing BF4 for 1 round. It works fine on as a computer but any graphic intensive game shuts it down. I have reloaded windows 7 , driver and ever redid the paste...nothing changed. Now I am looking for a replacement GPU. Does anyone know where I can find one? My searches on EBay and Google have been worthless. I would to upgrade but from what I have read it not possible by the bios limitations.
