    There will be many looking to upgrade Clevo P17HM and P15HM to the 7970m.

    Will the 6990m/6970m heatsink fit the 7970?

    what mods would be required?

    would new thermal pads be required?

    resellers, any information?

    Dear kolias28,

    price is $450 if order placed this week, $520 starting May 1
    shipping is $89 - we ship by UPS
    your VGA heatsink and x-bracket from 6970M will work with 7970M
