I'm in Sydney. How about yourself?
Will any GTX 1070 mxm 3.0 card (that will fit) work? I'm assuming some are better than others. I was considering a Clevo 1070 from ebay (N17E-G2-A1) assuming the GPU lines up with the heat sink. I have read that there can be audio problems after replacing the GPU? Is there a known best replacement?
The respray you have done looks amazing!
One day I may try it. Both the lid and palm rest are sticky, but the lid is the worse effected.
I completely forgot about the msata ssd. I may just look for a replacement for that.
I have noticed since I started using the laptop again, the speakers are ruined. They are very "buzzy" but still usable. Probably from getting bumped around in house moves and getting shifted from different storage locations. 99% of the time I use headphones anyway but at some point, this will be another part I would like to replace.
Pm sent about the screen, lid and palmrest.
