ReaverM1 Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 GTX 900M Series dropped for the Asus G751 and Sager/Clevo and MSI. Does anyone have one in their AW 17? I have the newest model and after calling Alienware and Xotic PC they haven't officially tested it in house so I wanted to know if any of you guys have gotten a chance to test it? I'm in the process of acquiring one although its not 100% guarantee that will be able to get it yet. If someone beats me to it LMK how it goes.

ReaverM1 Posted October 7, 2014 Author Share Posted October 7, 2014 Update so the only way to get one is to order a laptop with it or know someone in the system. Also Alienware, XoticPC, Clevo do not have any info/deny any compatibility with replacing say clevo gtx 980m in to the alienware 17. Card might fit but between bios and heat sink it may not work out at the moment. Doing the above will also void warranty so I've been told numerous times today.
