LOL, first thing I thought when I saw it was the size and thickness they used to be in the nineties and early 2000's! It's very retro.

That is exactly what I was thinking. I am not really familiar how sli works in laptops but if this statement is correct I guess it means the hardware is more like a dual gpu card and not like 2 completely discrete cards linked together?

SLI and CFX work in laptops just as they do in desktops, there is a thin ribbon cable that links the two cards together for multi-gpu configuration just as a SLI/CFX bridge would. I have always been a fan of these Clevo laptops, they are modular for the most part so that you can upgrade and get extended life out of them.

My trusty old Sager is going on 5 years old now and it works just fine. I can still play the latest games on it and it still has a bit of stretch in it if I were to upgrade the graphics card once more. a
