    Hi!
    I have a Toshiba satellite p100 laptop.

    I want to remove the stock fans and go only with passive/silent
    fan cooling. Now this will preoberbly work due to installing the parts
    in a an own made chassis, but i am facing one problem. I have spent
    hours trying to get a good answer from google, and even ebay and
    others on what kind of socket/connector is used for my graphics card.

    What is the name of the socket, and is there a possible way of getting
    an extension cable for it?

    Its 180 pin(90 on each side)

    Please look at this image:

    Any help will be very much appreciated!

    Greetings, and thanks in advance!

    Well, it's not MXM which does not look anything like that..

    It's probably unique to your laptop. I doubt you will be able to find an extension cable for it.
