    Good Afternoon,
    First i would like to thank you all for your insightful commentary on this forum it has helped me tremendously in my laptop buying journey. Now to get on with the question. I have bought a y410p and it is arriving tomorrow (very happy with Lenovo, they sent it 2nd day air) but while i was waiting i have begun to have 2nd thoughts. lol I was very interested in upgrading to sli in the future and that was one of my major reasons for buying the y series to begin with. However after reading the entire y410p owners thread it appears the y410p i bought might never have a 2nd card because of the upgrade to a gt755m. Should i send it back and upgrade to the y510p so i have an assured sli? Also is the 1080 screen on the y510p substantially better than the 900p screen of the y410p? Thank you all so much for your time helping me out. I am kinda new to the whole higher end laptop scene and i want to get the best deal possible.
    Thank again.
    Stuart

    They are supposed to release the sli card sometime this year for the Y410P.

    Also, i think you are able to SLI a 750 and a 755, because both are *identical* except the 755 is slightly overclocked. I could be wrong.

    And 900p vs 1080p = little difference, unless you want one more row of icons on your desktop.
