How to Upgrade

[ronmiester27]

I have an older alienware laptop (M17 not the M17X) and want to start upgrading it (more financially reasonable than spending $5000 - $6000 on a new one). My question is this, can I upgrade individual components and if so which parts can be upgraded and what parts cant be?

Is this the laptop you have: https/www.notebookcheck.net/Alienware-M17.16147.0.html? If this is the version you have, there's basically nothing worth trying to upgrade. The motherboard, ram, CPU and GPU are too old. Save up your money for a new PC.

For 5,000 you can buy two very high end laptops or 5 decent ones, each faster than that M17
