    The rule is there for a reason.

    You're not supposed to side-chat in a thread anyway. If no one can read what you type but you and the other person, that isn't fair and the rest of us can't help.

    I have dual GTX 280M and I am looking to sell one of them since I am noticing that I don't need the power of both of them.
    Most of my games run fine without the extra GTX 280M.

    PM if interested.

    Includes: The heatsink, fan, and actual GTX 280M.

    Well i dont think 2 people count as everyone :D. Running my M17 with 2x3870s compared to running the Single 280 on my M17x the M17 was quite abit faster so i dont think i would have been happy with a single GPU myself. I kicked around the Idea of ordering a single 280 for my M17 since i think it would work though. MxM2.1 that is .

    This thread is why I and many others always tell people to choose the correct graphics card when purchasing even if it means pushing the boat out a little and forking out more cash.....upgrading can be so difficult at times.

    If it was me I would be looking at just getting another 260 in SLI if its a performance increase you are after.

    Good luck.
