    I currently have an 8800M GTX 512MB, but I'd like to upgrade if possible. What is the best card that I could get that is compatible with the 9262?

    I think it would be either the GTX 280M (single card), or the SLI 9800M GTX.

    Could be wrong about the GTX 280M, as I hadn't known it was possible, but I did see a thread mentioning it was possible some time ago.

    I notice that site is for models already equipped with the 9800M GTX. Is there any difference in those and the 8800M GTX setup?
