    I'm using a Sager NP9261, based off the Clevo D901C...

    I was just wondering if the GPUs are user-upgradeable? Like, would I be able to get inside the laptop and upgrade the graphics cards?

    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Cheers!

    I'm currently using two SLI-linked 8700M GTs... Is it possible to upgrade to two 8800M GTs?

    It depends on the revision of the motherboard used in your D901C. If you bought it before the 8800M was released, then no you would need a new motherboard to support the 8800's.

    Trust me, you dont really need that much gpu power in a notebook.
