    So I purchased a new Lenovo y410p and I just have one question about the SLI GPU through the ultrabay.

    If my GPU is a GT 755m will I not be able to use the ultrabay to SLI it? I am worried that if the all the ultrabays are GT 750m's that I

    won't be able to take advantage of the ultrabay for a 2nd GPU.

    You should be able to, just the 755m will run slower at the GT 750m speeds, but in SLI so it will still be much faster.

    So I should be able to purchase the ultrabay GT 750m and it should still work with my 755m?

    Honestly, i have no clue. I contacted Nvidia on their official forums, and with no response. And i don't know anyone who tried this.

    You should probably get this thread moved to the Lenovo forums.
