im using above model laptop....its having nvidia geforce 8400 gs graphics card....i had installed fedora 15 and nvidia driver....when i view the temperature of the display card from nvidia menu its rising from 45 degree to 55 degree celciuse......does every card temp vary like this or this is a problem......i recently
changed the graphics card spending lot of money.......hope you reply soon.....
its normal temperature for a laptop gfx card.so nothing to worry as notebook parts get heated up a lot and also capable of withstanding high temperatures.
thanks for your reply.......last month i had serviced my laptop due to graphics card problem so little bit afraid..........
my laptop have express card slot. Do i can connect external graphics card via this slot.....
^^ sadly no. Even if you add it will be total waste of money.
Its hard to find external adaptor in India. I don't know if its even in production yet.
Also its will not be cost effective.
@ op i also have not heard/seen that type of card is available
So I just hooked up a 2GB 5850 to my laptop... - [H]ard|Forum
