M17x R4 Compatible Graphics Card

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

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.
