i could get a hybrid, best of both worlds

depending on the laptop you might be able to find a converter bay to change the ODD to a HDD spot, this would give you an SSD(OS)+HDD(Storage)

an ODD is almost not needed anymore, and you can buy an enclosure for your old one if need be

i might overclock my GPU if i can.

And.. no, laptop graphics are not changeable.

Ehh.. clarification. In many cases the GPU is changeable... If it is dedicated, and there are GPUs available that use a similar socket.


But an important thing to note is that the upgrade is costly, and normally not worth it.. and sometimes might require a little DIY modding on the heatsink.

If you head over to the ROG or NBR forums you'll find a few people who've been able to cram a 6970m into laptops that would normally carry a 5870m... etc So it is def. possible, just a lot of work on your part.
