Hey everybody, I'm pretty sure my gpu is faulty it causes the whole system to power off randomly while playing games, I've been monitoring temps and it stays under 80 constantly, I used msi afterburner a while back and I think I was running it too hot(over 90c), and that's what caused it to have issues.

I figured I might as well update to 780m anyways, since I want a faster laptop.... I have a Toshiba x70 and it uses what looks like the standard mxm socket for laptops, but i'm not completely sure... Can I buy one that has come from an alienware or other manufacture and place it in mine? Also I've noticed on other models this white input.. what is that for?
