Hello,
I have a Dell XPS m1730 with a dead 8700gt gpu in it. I have repaired it once by baking it and it worked very well for a long time after that but now it is dead. I am thinking of removing the slot connector on it and matching a ribbon cable on a pci x16 slot riser to it and run that slot externally. In theory can this be done and work with a desktop gpu?
