Khenglish Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 These cards will work:Clevo Laptop Parts :: P150EM/P151EM/P170EM - R&J Technology, Clevo Barebone Notebook kits, Laptop and desktop system builderAlso the 8970m will work. It comes with a better heatsink than the 7970m, but the memory cannot be overclocked on the 8970m, making the 7970m the better card.So I would say get the 670mx, or the 7970m if you are willing to spend a little more. The 680m's high price can no longer be justified over the 7970m since the 7970m driver issues have been corrected. The 675mx is substantially slower than the 7970m while costing roughly the same, so it's not worth getting.You might be able to find better prices on ebay, but these all come with heatsinks, while cheaper ebay cards might not. Also you cannot use dell (alienware) cards, so if you get an ebay card make sure it is a clevo card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ordering from upgrademonkey on ebay avoids that? If not then the rjtech 7970m is much cheaper (475 USD).As for 680m vs 7970m just go with whatever you can get cheaper. They're both basically equal.

He got it to complete a benchmark but there were problems with the card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Guess since the GTX880M will just be a more expansive and less OCable (8GB) re-brand we will see the 780M for some more time around being the cream of the crop. I have it working, but still need to re-write the ACPI table in order for it to switch power modes automatically, which is a headache as Clevos original has so many compiling errors...will get back to it sometime after the P37xSM Mods are done...
