    hi,

    Is it possible that an f8 series laptop would fit into HD2600?

    Does anyone willing to sell their GPU as parts?

    Any suggestion?

    the laptop is alot bigger than the GPU, you wont be able to fit in to the graphics card. you could if you ripped open the 2600 crammed the laptop in and squeezed it until it would fit.

    I really hope that HD2600 would fit into my F8 series laptop

    My current GPU was HD2400. I dont think it was MXM type. Because the HD2400 hole looks different, as I compared with other type of MXM type card.
    Picture of GPU comparison: HD2400 vs ATI x1600 vs Nvidia 8600gt

    Any suggestion which other type of GPU would fit?

    GPU update in a notebook is virtually impossible.

    See Info Booth_FAQ, question "Can my GPU be upgraded" for details on the reasons.
