Replacing Gpu (Damaged) in my Acer AN515-51 with the Gpu from my damaged Acer N20C2

Rahul_R

I have a AN515-51 that has a blown Nvidia gpu, luckily it still works with the intel card. My Acer N20C2 just went in to the doctors office and it's motherboard is dead. I think the gpu is still fine though and would like to know if a transplant is possible?

The Nitro AN515-51 is a 2017 laptop that is fitted with these GPUs like the GTX1050 or the GTX1050TI, and the Nitro N20C2, which is the Nitro AN515-55 is a 2020 laptop that is fitted with the following GPUs that are totally different to the AN515-5 laptop, the AN5155-55 laptop has the GTX1650Ti, RTX3050, RTX3050Ti or the top of the range RTX3060 MaxP GPU and these two laptops GPUs are totally different in specs and physical size and the AN515-55 Nitro gpu will not solder onto the AN515-51 mainboard gpu space.

Both of these laptops are different, you can't put one gpu into the other laptops gpu mainboard space as its pins are different and it can't interchanged (see captions below) if you want to have a working NVidia gpu on your Nitro AN515-51 laptop you need to buy a new mainboard, same with the Nitro AN515-55. Good luck and hope this helps you out.

Sorry, you can't upgrade the GTX1050 as it is soldered on the motherboard.
