Acer MXM Models and Cards

[warbringerpt]

Well, i dont see how can this:
NVidia GeForce GT240M | eBay

fit in my laptop, that looks way 2 huge... and that slot doesnt look like it will fit in mine... looks 2 big...
the 9600m gt:
nVidia 9600M GT MXM II VGA Card VG.9PG06.006 DDR3 512 MB | eBay

The 9600m gt does look like it fits, but it's a bit wide, i might have to cut some room for it.
Is there a lot of difference from the ddr2 one and the ddr3 one? Is it "noticeable"?

The GT 240M you found is Type A. You need Type II.

If you go for the 9600M GT, get the DDR3 version. It is both faster and more compatible (apparently) than the DDR2 one.

oh, didnt know that. The ones i'm seeing on ebay look all the same, with that slot type, and dont tell the specifics of the slot... anyone know a place where one can buy 1? Dunno if the 240m gt fits (havent seen the mxm type 2 yet), so i'll keep searching for more info. Don't want to buy something from ebay and then find out i can't use it.

Great ;-) I am waiting for mine to arrive and then need to find the time to install it

Mine should take about 8 days to get to the Netherlands. Where r u from?

Portugal. But i haven't ordered it yet, still looking for another places with a smaller number... and i haven't seen a real pic of the gpu in mxm-2 format, to see if it can fit.
I'm more inclined to buy a 9600m gt, because that one i know it fits.

edit: guess i found a website of the 240m gt in mxm-2 format:

Dunno if it's that gpu, but if it is, it will fit.
That price is retarded, but i guess gpus for laptops are kinda rare...
Will give it a day of thought if i'm going to buy from asusparts.fr or not.

Asusparts's version is the same, but with a blue PCB. It should work the same.
