Good News Everyone.

Y510P Removable Graphics GT755M5 | Lenovo | (US)

This is the SLI card for Y510p.

If anyone is interested then I suggest PPOBox.com-Shop and Ship from USA, UK and China to India Online

This service was personally tested by me and I can guarantee they know what they are doing. They can import the card and clear customs for you.

The performance gain you ask? You'll get the kind of performance that surpasses Alienware 17 which is considered by most the most powerful gaming notebook in India.

Don't forget you will also need the 170w AC adapter.

It says that maximum operating temperature is 35 degree Celsius!

Nopes! The cost will be higher than 10k for sure bcoz graphic card alone should cost around 15k plus another 6k for 170w adapter and yes its kinda must to have this adapter for sli config since the output for cpu and 1 graphic card will be less in default adapter, hence 170w brick required for sli config.

(At present the $ to inr will be approx 66rs)

Say 10k for the card and 2-3k for importing. That's 13k max.

and yeah you'll need the 170w brick. 45w for each GPU=90w+45w for CPU, that's 135w when maxed out both, no power left for other components. But considering the performance gains (Alienware 17 costs 1 lakh 90 thousand), it's totally worth it.

It's powered by usb or 3 aaa which means 5v. I don't think that's going to be much cool (pun intended). I am using a custom made one powered by a 12v adapter. See showoff section for more details.

is anybody getting extended warranty fo y510p????
if so how much???

you already got 2 years of warranty. The laptop will be outdated before that as Maxwell and Broadwell are coming soon. But I am guessing 5k INR for 2 years more.
