    I am thinking about selling my Clevo w860cu. Should I sell it with the 6990M I installed or put my 5870M back in and sell the 6990M separate? It also has an i7-720QM, 6GB of ram, a 320GB HDD, and 1080p glossy display.

    Any thoughts?

    Sell it with 6990M since a W860CU with 5870M isn't very appealing since the W860CU is limited by the CPU. 6990M might make it easier to sell. Then you can try to sell the 5870M to someone who just wants to keep their old system alive longer.

    I second this. You're more likely to appeal to potential buyers with the 6990M. The 5870M by itself could be a hard sell, though.

    Ask what the users want. Say you can equip either. Would be ideal to sell it with the 5870M and sell the 6990M out of trade, that way you'll gain more :D
