I need some help.
I am doing an unconventional upgrade to my GT80S. My motherboard died the slow death, turn on stayed on the MSI splash screen longer each time and quit working altogether.
I purchased a MS-18161 ver. 1 8850HQ motherboard, it was $100.00 more than another 6920HK. The motherboard swapped out just fine.
I need to swap out some other parts.
What are the part number for the CPU heatsink and the SATA HDD cable. The ones for the 6920HK will not work, mounting screws are slightly different and no fan mounts.
MSI is not responsible in anyway for the upgrade.
I have already ordered on Aliexpress;
GPU fans - four wire instead of 3 wire
GT83 lower case - needed room for the fans
CPU heatsink & fan - NEED HEATSINK PART NUMBER before seller will ship heatsink and fan
Still need;
SATA HD cable - Has to slide under the metal tab on MB? Need part number, availability?
SLI cable - Needs to be longer to go over the CPU fan. Need part number, availability?
Later purchase;
Charging adapter/combiner - If I upgrade to GTX1080Ms from 980Ms
WiFi module - upgrade to latest version for 5G.
Any help is appreciated.
