    When I heard that there may be a new Graphic options, 485m, for M17x R3, I was so excited. But the fact is, I never hear anything further about it after that. Will it be possible? Or I just forget it and find something else powerful.. :(

    Possible? Probably.

    Has anything at all been mentioned from Dell, in their manuals, or on any rumor website? No.

    The only cards that have been officially mentioned anywhere still are the 6870m, 6970m, and the GTX 460m.

    Rumor has it that they will probably upgrade to a more powerful Nvidia card eventually (especially for more power for 3D), but not a single peep about that is official yet.
