    P650SA listing on Clevo website

    Clevo have listed a new model of P650, called a P650 SA and indicate it has a "NVIDIA® New graphic card".

    With the recent news leaking out about the incoming 960M and 965M card, do you think this is what the model will have?

    doubtful, the cooling system for the cpu should still be the same...another thing would be a connected cpu/gpu cooling system, thus with more cooling capacity for the cpu since the 960m would generate less heat than the 970/980m but that isnt the case here so...

    The 960M was delayed to january 2015 (for the 960 too) by Nvidia, so should be january/early february 2015

    The W230SD has GTX960M the P6xxSA has GTX965M, which will also be available as standalone MXM soon-ish for all the other models.

    The GTX960M hasn't been delayed, it has always been scheduled for a mid-march release... ;)

    Mid march? wow that is a little late, i thought it would be like mid february, would the W355/W370 and P150/P170 get the 960m or 965m as well?

    Mid-Feb is only mass-production for GTX960M and below, not release.

    GTX965M comes a month earlier and also in MXM flavor, so yeah P1/P3 will be an option.

    And sorry I can't talk about models that haven't been leaked by someone else first.
    Just trying to correct inaccurate information, otherwise people will only only be disappointed if things take longer than expected. :)

    Yes nvidia have been quite happy with the 860M/970M/980M combo but it does leave quite a gap (the difference in chip size is huge).
