Well, anythings removable =P User friendly, hell no!
I found a supplier of the GPU I need, but they only supply one model of it, I need the second model to work with it, it was a custom design for alienware which I'm assuming means I'll have to find someone with another broken M9700, or a chop shop with the bits I need, but by no means is it going to be easy to remove the parts.

Will try again tonight and just plug in one card at a time, will let you konw the results =]
