M17x R4 Compatible Graphics Card

Question

I have an Alienware with Service Tag<ADMIN NOTE: Service tag removed per privacy policy>, Core i7-3630QM, 8GB RAM, and on Windows 7 64bit, but my 660M Graphics Card failed. I checked the Alienware forum but failed to find what are the compatbile graphics card (with it's corresponding heat sink) that will fit and compatible to my unit. Has anybody fitted new graphics card which is similar to my unit? Thank you JP

Compatible GPU upgrades (most likely require 3-pipe heatsink)

GTX 675m
GTX 675mx
GTX 680m
GTX 765m (2-pipe should be fine)
GTX 770m
GTX 780m
GTX 870m
GTX 880m
GTX 965m (2-pipe should be fine)
GTX 970m
GTX 980m
HD 7970m
HD 8970m / R9 m290x

Only the GTX 675m, GTX 680m, and HD 7970m have been tested by Alienware in the m17xR4. The rest are verified through those in the community.
