    Hello my names Tyler, I have bought a 1070m MSI card for my 8770w to upgrade. I'm looking for the link to the chinese forum where the person was able to upgrade using the 1070m and then I believe he also did the 1080m and showed how to do the heatsink modifications.

    I have found this thread multiple times using links I found I believe on this forum, and for the life of me I have lost the link for the hundredth time. It drives me nuts not being able to locate this information after having made sure to keep it handy.

    Please if someone here can find these links, or knows which chinese forum this was on I would very much greatly appreciate it. If you can't find the chinese forum where this information is, please if there's any other source of the heatsink modification for the 8760w/8770w please help me in finding it. Thank you very much.

    -Sincerely,

    -Tyler Wright

    1080 is not possible for 8770W unless heavy chassis modifications.
    1070 MSI is possible only if your screen is DreamColor.
