Vortex III (Clevo P170EM) with 7970M

Vortex III (Clevo P170EM) with 7970M. GET YOUR BENCHMARKS HERE!

As long as it's a MXM chipset can I change/upgrade the GPU in the future it I opt for a 7970m in the Clevo P170EM (Vortex III 17.3")? If the answer is yes, would it need to be an AMD card or both Nvidia & AMD will work?

p.s I hear Enduro decreases the performance of 7970m because it can't be disabled compared to Alienware where Enduro can be disabled completely.
Can PCS please confirm whether Enduro decreases the performance of the 7970m (especially in games)? And please post some benchmark scores of the P170EM with 7970m in this post. i.e 3DMark11 Performance & Extreme, Heaven benchmarks etc

Enduro is a powersaving feature if I'm thinking correctly, which would only effect you if you weren't plugged into the mains I might be wrong through

You can change the GPU but only to models that are supported in the BIOS. This means GTX 670M/GTX 675M/HD 7970M and GTX 680M. I cannot confirm if future releases wll be compatible, but based on the Vortex II I wouldn't bank on it.
