    I really hope I can get my hands on one of these! My reseller now has the 8800M GTX version of the M570RU listed in his webshop. AND as I said before on this forum, I have to send my notebook back in december and guess what, my reseller is probably able to deliver the 8800M GTX version in mid-end december. I offered him to pay extra for an upgrade to an 8800M GTX barebone. Now it's waiting to see if it's possible and what he will charge extra.

    the last numerical digit in the Clevo model # denotes aesthetic differences only (such as color of case)

    What about the NP926 1 I own an NP9260 and was told the 9261 had a better mobo in it.


    Also this is great news, this means my 9260 will be sporting SLI 8800m GTX, nice, goodbye 700$ and hello 2 amazing GPU(S)

    I said Clevo.... not Sager.

    Clevo model numbers have nothing to do with Sager's.

    Sager is an OEM (that sells Clevo notebooks), they choose their model numbers their way... usually to denote refresh models (or a slight hardware difference) for the last digit it seems.

    well, black case seems to be their own customization only - I have seen it available at one japaneese vendor as well, but not on Clevo website..guess they paint them on their own :D
