P150EM Upgrading from 675M to 680M!

[Vergeofinsanity81]

must be nice to have a cool G lying around to upgrade so quickly to the 680m. (green with envy over here). Let us know how it is!

Great! Can't wait

That's $1200, the price of an entire laptop, for the GTX 680M. Ridiculousness.

Would overall cost less to sell the laptop, then buy a whole new one with the 680M.

^ This. Kevin's portrait says it all. But it's your money to spend. I was thinking about trying it in my NP8150. Wonder if it would work.

Hate it when they do something like this

"Unsatisfied, return within 7 days for a FULL refund"

and then you get popped with this

"Please make sure you know exactly what you are buying, we have to charge

15% restock fee, for non faulty return."

Anyways, really anxious to see how the install and testing goes!

Wow is it really $1200 for a stand alone GTX 680M? Unbelievable.

[awakeN]

Jesus, that's even more than the GTX 690, that price scares the living crap out of me.

Standalone laptop gpu/cpu will always be expensive as they are manufactured for OEM's and have very short supply or it is not even intended for the consumer market.

[hackness]

Bah, it seems like they just sent the card out today, gonna have a 2-3 days delay before I can upgrade/benchmark/post result for the GTX 680M

More waiting huh? I think you still might be the first. Well if HTWingnut doesn`t get all sneaky and get it first though. He talked about having it "in transit" whatever that means
