    hi. thanks for reading this question.

    i have a sager 5791 and it has options for either 8700m or 9750 gtx.

    just say the 8800 comes out and is UPGRADEABLE for my system,

    would it matter if i had either the 8700m or the 9750 gtx? would having the 9750 gtx automatically disqualify me?

    It's actually the Go7950GTX. And no, it wouldn't matter which GPU you started out with.

    i think both use MXM III so you should be able to upgrade.

    it's 7950gtx, i believe, and if ur laptop does support the upgrade, then it wouldn't matter which card u buy right now.
