    I don't know the part number but I do have an extra GTX 260m primary card for my M17X. I found out I don't it need anymore.

    If you're having difficulty buying it from Dell (Have you tried calling Dell Spare Parts Sales?), I could sell it to you or eBay sometimes has one (or two) up for auction also.

    With all these upgrade questions I think there needs to be an official thread regarding them lol. :eek:

    the card brah has fit your M15X why you don't purchase from him since you can get better price. i don't think you want to pay more than $500 ;)
