i changed my cpu and repasted my gpu about a month ago but when i was closing up my system i broke the piece at the end of my black antenna so i just connected the grey one to my wireless card and it worked a charm but i want a killer N wireless card soon and i'm pretty sure it needs 3 antennae so what can i do?

Antennas can be replaced- that's what you should do.
-
how do i do this. Is it a hard procedure?

You'll have to dismantle the notebook I'm afraid.
Antennas are routed around the screen so you'll have to remove the one you've broken and replace it and also find a place to route the third antenna you'll be adding.
Consult a service manual if one is available for your notebook. -
There are several videos on YouTube on how to do a M17x R2 dissemblance. SOURCE
Good luck -
Didn't mean to thread dig but i decided that i didn't want to waste my money and time purchasing a new screen but what i have realised is that there is a bluetooth 370 minicard in my system and i'm pretty sure that it doesn't work, would i be able to use the antenna from there as a third antenna incase i want to purchase a new wireless card in the future?
need help with wireless card m17x r2
