My Heatsink
Which heatsink should I get for the P750DM3 if I want the 3080 mxm card in place of my 1070 mxm? The heights of the heatsink parts are wildly different over the memory parts and what not…
But Oh man!! I’m down the rabbit hole and its my first 17” Clevo/Sager!! (Still have a 16” Clevo with a 970m and sold a loaded Sager with a 1070 & 4k screen)
But anyways I have a Xi PowerGo P750DM3 with a 7700k and 1070mxm now that I was going to fix and sell, but all I did was throw in an NVME and RAM from my trashed Gigabyte Aero 15 OLED with an i9-11980K and 3080 8GB (I kicked the power strip and now it dies on AC power and won’t charge!) and it ran perfectly!
But I always loved the build quality of this make, and of I could upgrade to a 9700K or 9900K, I could care more about using a 45W processor and switch my to that epic 3080 16GB i saw listed… a 330W Power brick should be able to cover everything, right?
And can we upgrade to the 120hz 3k (2880x1620) AMOLED screen? I have one on the way and with a dead Gigabyte, do we have an eDP cable for OLED? Oh wait, the Aero is a 15.6” laptop with terrible cooling and quality.
