    Hi All,

    My AMD Radeon HD 7970M has died on me and had to replace, i am only looking to use the laptop for watching movies and emails so don’t need anything too decent.

    I have bought a GeForce gtx 660m and was wondering if the heat-sink and support plate is compatible or will I need a replacement.

    Any guidance would be appreciated along with any spares that would work as on a tight budget.

    Many thanks

    Alex
