hi there, is't possible to reach the X1600 without taking off LCD? & just remove the back housing? I messaged you too, look forward to hearing from you soon, billion thanks in advance! = )

No,it's impossible. it's necessary to remove the LCD and the top cover. So you have to lift the balck sheet. Under this one you should find the GPU. If you dont find the big chip with ATI specs, you may take off the MB and turn it on the other side.(Unfortunately with this lack of time I dont remeber the right side of the GPU, but I'm sure about dissasemble of the mentioned parts)

But,can I ask it?why do you want the GPU?It's welded on the MB...

@fottutissimo

ooo I see... I want to reapply the GPU's thermal grease, do you know if it has padding between the heatsink & the GPU? or is't only thermal grease between the 2 surfaces? thanks again = )

@ashyxt

I think you're wrong...I dont remember grease/padding on the GPU...
