    Hi! :)

    I got two L702x from 2012 recently and they are great machines with SSDs.
    My first machine is with the 120Hz FHD and the 3D Version Mainboard, works perfectly.
    No i wanted to upgrade my second laptop with the 3D Version as it has 4 RAM slots so i can get it to work
    with 32GB Ram for Videoediting. I assembled everything fine and i wanted to turn in on and then.....
    8x short beeps = GPU returns error.

    IS IT THE SCREEN ? CAN IT ONLY RUN THE 120HZ PANELS ?
    OR DO I HAVE TO ASSUME THAT THE GPU IS BROKEN ?

    I have had some trouble running 60Hz as well. I find that when I do I switch to 59Hz and that seems to do the trick.
