The m17x probably can handle the GTX280M (since it is a 17inch), in SLi not sure. it all depends on where they put the SLi connection, and the slave card.
The other thing is just because it fits might not mean it works, the motherboard Bios might not support it.
All this is speculation, but if some one bought a GTX260m or a GTX280m and tried it. If it worked there would be many people following suit. If it did not I do not see why you couldn't sell it to the Clevo guys or on ebay.
