How and where can i buy laptop GPU's from, other than eBay (980m). I just want an answer. And for those who need to know, my laptop has MXM slots, so my GPU can be changed (ALIENWARE 17).

Most laptop GPUs are specific to the brand of laptop. You need to go to the original vendor to be sure that it will work and be supported. If you have a Dell, go to Dell, an HP go to HP, ETC. This answer does not even begin to get into the question of whether or not your laptop has sufficient cooling and power to use an upgraded GPU.

You not going to find that open to public orders for awhile, you will only find builders reselling those at a nice markup and those probably wont sell you the Heatsink and fan which you will also need to replace. At this stage they are making them on a Order bases only so unless someone gets a supply and decides to sell cheap your out of luck.
