    hello everyone I am looking for a 7950 GTX video card for my Alienware m7700. I have read post that there is such a beast out there but I am not able to locate a place to buy one. If anyone has one for sale or know where I can buy one that would be great.

    the videocard modules for the Clevo D900T/K can be purchased from some Clevo vendors like:
    - www.rjtech.com
    - www.eurocom.com
    - www.ztronics.com

    or even on ebay at at times. :)

    FYI, there are two flavors of the AW M7700:
    - Area-51 is the Clevo D900T with Pentium 4 (LGA775)
    - Aurora is the Clevo D900K with AMD Athlon X2/FX (Socket 939)

    In either case, both of those systems use the exact same videocard modules.

    the ones on ebay at the moment, seem to mainly be for Dell systems.

    only a few are for the 19"-20.1" Clevo M590K/KE (aka. Alienware mALX)

    none for Clevo D900T/K systems

    yes, you will have to contact the vendors directly.

    these items are usually too specialized to list on a website.
