    Just called Dell and they are telling me the correct part number is 3mf8r and price is 1189.99....for one card. The rep i got kept saying to me that 3ms8r doesnt exist. The part number for the 6990m is rdrgr $614.99.

    I called 1-877-717-3355 if that matters. Is there a different number or something im missing?

    That is what the last 199 calls were about! hahaha
    They say they wanted a techy to install it for me...(for an extra $100)i said no, of course. Just keep trying them! they confirmed it with my last night to me! they called for vertification that i bought it and the second one to vertify what card i wanted and they said the "amd 6990m or the Nvidia GTX 580m"

    keep trying guys! that is the right part number!

    P.S. i do have a certified dell techy store near me and he can ussually get me part cheaper but for this one he said it is the gpu i wanted but he could not get me a discount because of a reason that i for got something about consumer...

    BUT HAVE NO FEAR I SHALL SHOW YOU THE PICTURES!
