    Thx for the help. Seller say me, this gpu is not compatible with msi. (When I went shopping I was told yes.) Facepalm.

    Im buy it "http://www.ebay.es/itm/NVIDIA-GEFORCE-570M-GTX-MXM-3-0b-DDR5-1-5GB-Laptop-Graphics-VGA-Card-/331215624603?ssPageName=ADME:X:eRTM:US:1123"

    Two question:

    1)GTX770M.. Really works well ?, I must not do anything to make it work ?, I need change my AC adapter ?.

    2)I can change the vbios of gtx570m, and it work?. For avoid refound.

    It cost me, 180€. Another gtx570m compatible 250€, Upgrade it a gtx770m +300€. Im only want use for laptop.

    Now, im only want use the laptop and use stock speed for avoid problems, and high temperature.

    1. yes, the MSI GTX770M works perfectly. My MS-16F2 has the same motherboard like your GT780DX (HM67 Chipset) and i play all games with the original 180W PSU, but with Throttlestop !
    2. no, only MSI Cards are compatible with the MS-1761 / MS-16F2 Barebone

    When you want a cheap card, than you can buy this Card: Nvidia GeForce GTX 670M 1.5GB DDR5 MXM 3.0 Type B for MSI | eBay the GTX670M is the same card like the GTX570M, only with another vBIOS and ca. 30mhz more core frequence.

    It's not just MSI cards that work actually, I ran a dell 7970M in my 16F2 and I had a 680M dell card working in a 16F3 generation machine too.

    i I have also written that the GTX770M the fastest Nvidia card is for the MS-16F2. The MS-16F3 barebone eats almost any graphics card because I have installed already ne GTX780M. But in the MS-16F2 GTX680M does not, any more than the GTX780M or any other Kepler cards ...

    The AMD cards which only run under a specific VBIOS version, which I now do not know. There, technology must also be disabled AMD's Enduro. Besides, the cards are still extremely expensive, so the best upgrade is a GTX770M for the old MS-16F2. In MS-16F1 the GTX770M runs the way also, I tested yesterday.

    Really thx for the help all.
    In monday i'm go to send the graphic card for refund. Im try buy another graphic card.. Gtx570m or 670m. Im really dont need 770m, is very costly

    Interestingly, a link to the GTX670, is very cheap and I can buy. But if I look, I get all quite more expensive. What's more, nor see this link. I hope it lasts.

    Ebay laughs at me ...

    Guys, would be too much to ask, if when I get the money from the refund, you can spend another link I like the gtx670m ?.

    No joke, in my ebay looking for it, neither appears. (And sent to Spain). Ebay Troll. :mad:

    GTX670M link (180€ for me). If im look in all ebay, 260€. :mad: :mad: :mad:
