This is a bit out of topic but, are there any options for GPU upgrade in MSI GX70 (AMD counterpart of the GT70)

So far from what I've seen, it's got something called AMD Enduro which forces it to use iGPU for light tasks and then use the HD8970M for heavy tasks. No one has managed to disable iGPU through any means.

The laptop uses an 17.3 inch LVDS panel and what I want to know is that if there is any possible GPU upgrade for it. (Picked it up at a local marketplace for 50$)

 

Specs- AMD A10 5750M

             8GB DDR3 1600

             128GB SATA SSD

             HD 8970M 2GB

Heard that NVIDIA graphics cards won't work in this model due to the Enduro thing. Please help.

Hello.

 

This is the wrong thread.

 

Your laptop is LVDS. This thread is for a product to allow eDP displays to work with the newest RTX MXM.

 

Enduro is the Optimus of Intel.

 

Try to get a Quadro Maxwell or a cheap Quadro P3000/P4000 and try. If it doesn't work, you could send the item back if the seller agrees.

 

Did your laptop model came with an Nvidia MXM? 

 

I don't see why it wouldn't work but your CPU's single thread is very low.
