Can I SLI with my Asus G74S?

Hello ROG community! I'm wondering if the motherboard within the G74s allows for SLI compatibility? If so I am considering dumping a second 560m into the laptop for extreme power. I haven't bothered to check what type the motherboard is, so I figured I would ask the ROG community first.

Thanks! :cool:

That's why I'm asking. I'm not sure if there's enough space or even the option to do so (if the motherboard doesn't support SLI). The laptop is quite large, so I'd assume it could fit another 560m in it.

From what i read you cant even upgrade the current 560m, its integrated with the motherboard..... so adding a second one, i would think not

GPU:


This laptop is one of the kings of laptops, but unfortunately the heat took it down.
