AS for where to get the 7800 MXM: I have no knowledge of where they can be bought yet, but I should get them soon. Check these forums from time to time or my website to keep up to date.

Ice-Tea Thanks a lot, i have found in italy this store with this: http://www.futuracomputers.com/articolo.ph...DEO&cod=vxm0003 is the good choice for the amilo?? :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice-Tea Posted May 1, 2006 Report Share Posted May 1, 2006 Hi there, Yes, it should be ok. Two things to check first: * Distance between mounting holes of the heatsink. There are two possibilities: 41 and 46mm. The Amilo has 46 AFAIK and that card should be the same. Even though it's unlikely for a Type III with a 7800 to be 41mm, I suggest you check this first. * AFAIK, your current card has standoffs attached to the MXM card for the mounting of the heatsink. You should be handy enough to find a solution for this. Regards, Ice-Tea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Adam Posted May 2, 2006 Report Share Posted May 2, 2006 I wish that site was in english. I dont think the card is MXM though never seen a 7800GTX MXM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
