The only issue is making a heat sink for it. The stock "Die heatsink" should fit if the mounting is the same as any other standard MXM card, use that to cool the die. As for the VRM and VRAM, your best bet would be fabricating something that consists of 2-3 pipes that hit the VRAM and the VRM. I can sketch something up when I get home... You could always modify the VRM cooling plate to fit on this card, I didn't even know there was a 5700 MXM lol, nice find!

Reciever Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 Ohhhh very interested to see how this pans out! My GTX 1080 is on its way out, mostly due to my taking things too far lol. Very interested to see how this comes about. For the VRAM, you could like get away with some mosfet heatsinks just to get it up and running for testing, but copper isnt cheap most of the time. Maybe aluminum would be cheaper? Telegram / TS3 / Twitter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reciever Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 @Rengsey R. H. Jr. Have you made any progress with this project? Very curious how it turns out. Either pursuing this or the recently uncovered RX 6600 MXM card for my P157SM-A (new to me) Telegram / TS3 / Twitter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssj92 Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 Wow that RX6600 MXM card is interesting. Looks close to full MXM 3.0b spec, would be interesting to see which laptops it works in.

Mtheta Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 As I started to look what other options there now are I found this card and according to my investigations it might work as upgrade for MSI GT75/73 laptops. Link here: EGX-MXM-A4500 | Embedded MXM GPU Modules | ADLINK (adlinktech.com) What do you think? My laptop has RTX 1080 what also could be only MXM 3.0b compatible, but it's hard-to-get info as there are MXM 3.1 compatible RTX 1080s too, but PCI Gen 4 cards should work with PCI Gen 3 slots thought. Some info about MXM ports: MXM Graphics Card Types, Models & MXM GPU List (graphicscardhub.com) Also is there place here where people are sharing latest MSI laptop drivers? There once was this TechnologyGuide forum site where you could easily get latest MSI laptop drivers, but it got closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
