Is It Possible To Upgrade Alienware M15x Graphics Card

[ukunique]

Hi all,

I have an Alienware M15x and the only thing that lets it down is the graphics card (Nvidea 260m).

My question is am I able to upgrade the graphics card and if so what card would people suggest? I want to make sure it doesn't overheat etc.

I tried asking Dell but didn't get much sense out of them.

Any help appreciated

Yes you are able to upgrade the graphics card. I've upgraded my graphics card 3 times already. I'm currently on an AMD 7970M (which is identical to the current generation r9 M290X and 8970M). I can score a nice P6850 with a modest overclock and so it pretty much runs all new games on high to very high settings. Head over to these websites for much more info. NBR forum also has an excellent marketplace where I purchased my 7970M.
