hey sup guys
ive been looking around alot at the mr9700's and mr9800's and it looks as though you could physicly but a mr9800 into a i9200 if you changed the heatsink,because the only thing i see different is the cooling heat sink goes off the the left on the mr9800 rather then the right of the i9200 mr9700,and this is due to the cooling slot of the xps/9100 is on the left,
so if you got a mr9800 and took its heat sink off and replaced it with the i9200 one and then took of the xps/9100's backing thats on the card then it look as thoug it will fit sense all the ports are in the same place
the only thing i could see holding it back from working is if dell has a hardwear lock on the card set in the bios
just wondering if anyone else has looked into this and what they think about it if you guys could post some pics to compair so everyone can see that be great too
