Hello everyone,
I'm looking to upgrade my 2 graphic cards in my Alienware M18x R1 laptop.
My ATI radeon HD 6900's have finally decided they have had enough of life and died on me.
I'm not very knowledgeable when it comes to what hardware laptop are able to take so would greatly appreciate any help I can get!
My current CPU is - Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2960XM 2.70GHz
I will have to replace both cards, what would give the best performance vs cost?
Also I noticed it was running quite hot when playing demanding games (black desert), would I have to upgrade heatsinks or apply new thermal paste, if so what are some recommendations?
Thank you so much for all who reply!
