    As the title says, Is it possible for a 770dm to upgrade to a 1070? This video shows a 980m being upgraded to a 1070 of what i believe is a gt72 barebones.

    If so where could i possible get a 1070 for my machine? aside from rjtech and woodstackz(hit him up but still no reply). Also will the 240w psu be enough?

    Really need an upgrade path so its either a 1070 for this machine, a egpu box(assuming the housings are cheap e.g. razer core) or selling this machine ang getting myself a bga turdbook with a 1070 or 1080.

    well technically the 1070 MXM from MSI is compatible, but i dunno anymore if you still have to mod the card and the heatsink.

    The positions of the parts are not massively different. So long as the heatsink was not blocked pads should make up the difference.

    There is no 10 series GPU available for P750DM or P770DM. We offer GTX 1070 upgrade kit for P870DM only.
