There were and are nVidia options such as the GTX970 and 980 -- these are MXM3 cards, and Clevo is one of the very few who make them. Try one of the Clevo builders (AVA, Sager, Eurocom) -- they may have card upgrade kits for sale that will work. The one thing to do is be sitting down when you browse the prices -- expect $750-1000 for just one of these cards (you may be able to save somewhat with a used card -- if you find a reputable vendor).
