Question about g75vw

Ok so i know this was discussed before, but I'm at the point where I'm ready to do this upgrade this week if at all possible. It was said before that the 660m in the G75VW could be replaced with a 670MX. Now my question here, if anyone could answer it, could we replace the 660m with any of these following gpus.

765
770
780

These all come from g75 series laptops. Please let me know.

Well these 700 series Video cards are soldered in on G750 Motherboards. None that I know of have been installed in the G75 series.

Also there's the issue of system BIOS and vBIOS. A lot of last gen systems from various OEMs won't accept 7xxM cards simply due to the firmware.

We customize Asus, MSI, and Clevo laptops!

ok... next question being, i want to repaste my gpu (660m) to try and overclock a little higher. right now im running at 1270 on the core, 2500 on the mmemory. any suggestion on what brand to use? should i use grease or compound? am i going to need thermal pads? what kind should i get? what thickness?

Search @Dreamonic Threads, he documented a repasting a few weeks ago, there were other comments in the same thread.
