    I would like to replace the GTX 680M in my MSI GT Series GT70 0NE-452US Notebook since the GPU has been damaged due to improper handling during installation.

    I have been browsing on ebay to find the same GPU, preferably shipping from a EU location and found one for clevo eurocom.

    As i am checking here to make sure i won't have any issues i was wondering if anyone installed a 680M from the clevo eurocom into an MSI GT70 laptop successfully and/or if there are any driver or bios issues i would have to resolve.

    Thanks in advance

    I would like to make it clear that the GT70 came with a 680M GPU.

    Yes, though the later bios versions do not work so cards like the 675MX have issues as do 680M's flashed with later versions.

    can you let me know which bios version would work? I will ask the seller to let me know which version the GPU has,
