    So, I am planning on possibly purchasing a Sager NP9370 within the coming months (Or if something succeeds it before about June~ then that model) But from what I've read if you buy it with only one GPU it does not come with the heatsink for the other GPU or something along those lines? So my questions are is this the actual case, and if so, where would I get it?

    Thanks,

    -Zach

    That is probably true. I think one reason is that Sager/Clevo laptops tend to have different heatsinks for AMD/Nvidia.

    You can often get a heatsink included if you buy a GPU kit from eBay or your reseller. For example, this listing for a GTX 680M for a Clevo P370EM (other name for your laptop model) includes the heatsink.

    Oh wow, thanks. I didn't even think of searching for the Clevo model number, yeah that answers my question. I wish there was an official Clevo store for stuff like this, or if there is more advertising for it through resellers.

    Yeah, you can always contact your reseller for individual parts (especially GPUs, heatsinks). One advantage in doing this is the parts you purchase may also be covered in the original warranty (this depends on your reseller, I guess).
