    ok well i wont to replace my screen in my w880cu so let me know if you find a 17.3 120hz screen . the screen that you have a link for has 50pin's and the stock Clevo w880cu & w870cu have a 40pin connector i have read some were i think it was on here that eurocom have confirmed that the 680m will work . i would suggest asking eurocom or they sell on ebay as upgradeyourlaptop about the 680m but im shor it will work:
    CLEVO X7200 UPGRADE KIT - NVIDIA GTX 680M; 4GB DDR5; MXM 3.0b with VGA Heatsink | eBay

    another VGA option is the amd 7970m i hav that in mine and its perfest but you need to buy a clevo one that has the modded vbios.
    as for the screen if you can find a 40pin one then it may well work here is a 40pin model:
    New17.3 LCD LED Screen Display Panels Asus G74Sx-DH73-3D | eBay
    let us know how you get on.
