[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1603418, member: 56379"] I agree...I will be surprised if the 6770 video card the OP is thinking of using works. But...the OP does sound like a pretty handy person from what they mentioned...so it wil be very interesting to see what happens!:) For what it's worth. The 6770 video card the OP is going to try costs about $45US. When I searched eBay for a genuine 27" 2010 iMac 5750 (with heatsink) video card...it was like $400-$500 bucks! If the OP gets this HP laptop 6770 card to work...and only costs $45US...that will be pretty amazing. For what it's worth #2. Apple did use a Radeon 6770m video card/video hardware in "Late 2011" 15" and 17" MacBook Pro's. And in some "Mid-2011" iMac's. But of course in the MacBook Pro application...this video hardware was soldered (not a socketed card)...like it is in the HP laptop, So who knows...maybe the OP has a shot at getting this to work.:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
