    You'll need to proof this before asking the difference as I have never heard of anyone suggesting there are two 5870M from Asus.

    If they have two broken ones, seems like a total waste of time and money for Asus since neither of them work as I have never heard of a 5870M from Asus working properly.

    If your HD5870M is different and it is a 5870M, I'd like to see a screenshot from GPUz as well.

    Well, that's just embarrassing. After taking my laptop apart again, I saw that my card is indeed the same as the pic I posted. I could've swore that it was different. Sorry guys, don't know how I made an error like that. How about some epic with that fail?
