    This is a petition to Clevo to listen to their customers and allow Nvidia Pascal upgrades for P7xxDM/ZM models.

    fixed that for you ;)

    also, you should specify: internal 1070 + eGPU option or 1070 AS an egpu option? both dont really make much sense if u ask me... id prefer a 1070 MXM ;)

    I guess this petition could be extended for all models including P870DM1, because it seems the P870DM2/3 are thicker and there are no upgrades available? Just in case, but I am not sure.

    There is a different thread for that that is why I did not include them.

    Actually I wanted to point out the bare minimum that we should get and 1060 will be a good enough upgrade for 970M.

    So why can't you guys get the 1060 ? Isn't it MXM standard? I thought just the 1070 and the 1080 are non-MXM standard?

    No, the Clevo 1060-1080 all share the same form factor.

    One card will fit, but heat sinks for the MSI ones will need to be custom. And all of the new cards will need an EC communication mod.

    Why only 1060 as an option and eGPU?

    We want more power, gtx 1070 minimum.

    Actually I wanted to specifically point out to these models. There are separate threads for other models.

    It is better than nothing. I wanted to point out the bare minimum which may be feasible for power supply and size.

    I understand your pain brother but I do not understand everyone's expectations. And I have included voting as well. So it would be very difficult for me to point out every model. Sorry if that hurts you.
