Hi guys, just wanna share an upgrade of my iMac 27" mid-2011. I have been following a thread from MacRumors for quite sometimes and recently I have managed to upgrade my iMac's stock GPU (HD6770M) to GTX780M and I am proud with it. I bought the MXM card thru eBay from chooseyourdestiny2012 (for Alienware / Dell ) with versions id of 119F.
The surgery went well. After assembly with just one push on the power button the iMac did lost it's initial boot screen but quickly enters Yosemite without any delays. Oh yes I did sets up the screen sharing before the surgery just in case.
My previous upgrades was the CPU (from i5 to i7), dual SSD with RAID0 setup and an AirPort Wifi AC upgrade (for Handoff & Continuity).
Here it is, the iMac 27" mid-2011 with GTX780M
Enjoy!
