    Hi! I was wondering if anyone knew of any online purchasing options on amazon (or newegg, etc...) to replace a 230w Chicony power with the 330w version that the resellers sell.

    I think the 230W one has either been acting up, or the machine needs more power since it sometimes draws of the battery even when the power is plugged it. One time, it was on battery the whole time without me noticing and sudden black screen. lol.

    Laptop has a GTX 1070 in it.

    Thanks in advance.

    I saw a lite-on 330 watt on eBay for $80 bucks. Just make sure it has the Clevo connector and your good.

    I imagine that GTX1070 can pull 150 watts alone at times if overclocked? That does not leave much for CPU, monitor, and peripherals.

    I found one (delta) that uses the 4pin but it says it's for the P775DM3. Would it also work with the P751DM2?
