    It's an Nvidia card obviously, and that means it should work right?

    I bought a dell 660m from ebay as this 130m in my P170HM is really weak xD

    I mean, if it doesn't work, I could always put it into my m15x, but I'm wondering even with a dell vbios, would it work?

    Thanks man,

    At least I'll be able to run GTA V on high settings now when the card arrives. I'll report back to let everyone know how well it works. Just I heard some rumors that Dell VBIOS cards can cause temp and fan control issues? I dunno. Also will the 6990m heatsink fit the 660m? Mine fits my 130m, but that's a type-a card.
