    So I need an X500's video card to replace a 250m but can only find 460m's. They may not work due to wattage requirements and are crazily priced (only 1 available over $250).
    I can get a P505's Radeon 4650 for $100+ and although seemingly identical in layout, and assurance by an eBay seller, I have nothing else to know if it is compatible.
    If anyone knows, it would be a big help.
    Thanks

    Or if you have one of thses cards: http://forum.notebookreview.com/wan...ard-repair-service-p505-card.html#post9821236

    Adding: If anyone in the states or asia etc. sees one available, let me know!!


    EDIT:: If anyone is curious, the ATI 4650's from P500/505's worked.
