I am looking at this HP DV6QE: http://www.shopping.hp.com/webapp/shopping/computer_series.do?storeName=computer_store&category=notebooks&series_name=dv6zqe_series&a1=Category&v1=High+performance

My question is with the graphics card. I want to upgrade the graphics card to add a 1gb discrete card so that I can take advantage of the AMD Dual Graphics technology, because this would make it a lot better for playing games then with the default card on the CPU/APU. I have seen that dual graphics is an up to 70% performance increase. And yes, I KNOW this isn't a gaming laptop. I might just play like WOW at low. But when I go to select a card, it doesn't tell me which one it is it just says "1GB GDDR5 Radeon(TM) HD Dual Graphics [HDMI, VGA]" I want to know what graphics card they are charging me $100 to put in my laptop.

Thanks,
