Ok so i have this alienware laptop that i got last year it runs great but one thing about it. The video card that is in is kind of slow compared to the rest. I have a core 2 dual 2.16 and a 100 gig hard drive in it. But when it comes to a video card all i have is a nvidia 7600 Goforce 256mb pci-e. Now i was just wondering if i was able to get a much faster video card in it. I can run many games like cd4 and crysis but not on very high settings at all. but one game I can play on full setting is bf2. Is it possible at all that would be great.
 
What model Alienware do you have? Some, I believe, have upgradeable graphics slots and some do not.
 
the last alienware laptop i worked on had a replaceable 7800gt. it got rediculously hot!!
would accually cut out video sometimes after 30minutes of heavy gaming. Id be careful about upgrading if possible. unless you have extra cooling and fan controlling software.
