Hp 8670w laptop.
need a repair shop that can actually fix the issue or replace GPU.
the laptop starts and even a minute it heats up and keeps on restarting.
i had the GPU repaired twice; it lasted for 2 months before happening again.

Used it for gaming Fortnite for few hours per day, videos, youtube, school work and net. no rendering

so help needed for Karachi use

are you sure thats the right model?
theres an 8570w that uses mxm cards
and an 8760W but i cant seem to find a 8670W
yes, it is 8760w with 2gb Nvidia Quadro 3000 if i remember.
do u know shops in Karachi that can replace the GPU or actually fix it and maybe other issue like webcam, and upper mouse buttons?

welp, the8760w uses an mxm card, so youll have to get another mxm card and swap it out into that after checking compatibility, as for repairs, no one fixes mxm cards in paksitan

no one sells these tbh, mxm cards are rare as it is, you can probably import them using aliexpress if you have experience in that though

unfortunately, i have no experience of Aliexpress.
i have found same model on olx for around for 30k or so but with 1gb.
i would prefer at least 2gb otherwise second option is to buy another laptop.

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

  • SolitarySoldier SolitarySoldier:
    Phil keeps talking about breaking barriers to gaming, making it accessible on all platforms yada yada, while killing competition and creativity at the same time. the fact that i actually believed him for a second lol

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
