    I am from NY first of all and been looking into upgrading from the 580mGTX to the 680mGTX, I only say one sold at some place and it said it was compatible with the 170EM, however I do not know if both use the same heat-sinks for this, and have no issue upgrading on the older model.

    I have been looking on the forum and everyone seems to be talking about European shipping and this and that and I am not finding really more US locations to purchase this. I was hoping to just buy this from Sager or XOTIC PC, but this keep saying they have not tested this card on older models yet and not giving me a substantial answer.

    I assume if I can get this card I can just ebay my old card as i imagine nowhere do tradeup programs.
