No problem, any physical problem on a card from Clevo? like HDMI or sound? fan control not working? is it better to get the Dell version, or just wait till someone modifies the card to work natively with the m15x? or are they all plug and play?

Sound good, CPU is straight forward done it before, but the GPU is a new one for me, if I get a bare-bone 7970m anything I should look for to modify the heatsink to work with it? I have the GT240 currently, how about the power do I need to buy the 250watts power supply as well??? thanks again

Yes, I have the newer one, with the Intel Core i7-720QM Socket G1 (rPGA988A) Clarksfield SV nVIDIA GeForce GT 240M (GT216) Intel PM55 (IbexPeak-M) GPU: nVIDIA GeForce GT 240M (GT216) RAM: DDR3 SDRAM 4gb Bios: 1/05/11 A09 I hope this help...

Good idea, autoexec.bat file takes care of having to do it blind. good thinking, thanks

Hello there, I'm new to this forum, and was wondering what is the best GPU and CPU upgrade for my oldie but goodie m15x?? Cheers!!!

would a Clevo 7970m card work with the M15x?

I see the Clevo 7970M on ebay for $450 sounds like a great deal would it work with the M15x, or do I need to blind flash it with the Dell Vbios? Anything will help. Thanks guys... this forum is awesome keeping the old m15x alive ;-)
