The SLI cable is built into one of the GTX 260m cards, you cant really just buy the cable to connect them... there is a left card and a right card... the right card usually has the built in SLI cable if im correct.

The SLi cable is not built-in on none of the cards.
It's because of the position of the heatsink the plug is a little hard to reach.
Plexter, the m17x SLi ribbon is pretty rare ,I suggest you camp eBay for one and/or post an ad in the NBR want to buy section.
And for anybody that want to go the same route I suggest you purchase the card with the SLi/CF ribbon and heatsink. -

Well, its seemed to be built in lol... but that makes complete sense as well. Katalin's suggestion is a good one

Please post in your original thread

No need for a new one everytime you have something to reply concerning the same topic.
There have also been a few people in the past that asked the same question and it takes a miracle to find it separate,without buying the kit( card,SLi ribbon,heatsink). -
sorry iam not a pro

That's great, what did you use to pay for it as i saw he didn't take paypal :s
but at the same time he sold most of his m17x old parts and got positive feedback.

Western Union is almost everywhere but there's no protection and eBay strongly recomends that people should not use that paiement method for item purchased there.
No problem, enjoy!
