Upgrading the video card...

Hi everybody I am new to this forum so please forgive me if this is in the wrong section. I am thinking of customising and buying a Sony Vaio SVE1711C5E here is what I have chosen:

Intel® CoreTM i7-3612QM,2.1GHz

Genuine Windows® 7 Home Premium

1 TB Serial ATA (5400 rpm)

8 GB 1333 MHz DDR3-SDRAM

Blu-ray Disc(TM) writer

43.8cm LCD 1920x1080 + webcam

AMD Radeon(TM) HD 7650M 2GB

What I would like to know is when I get a bit more money whether or not it's possible to upgrade the video card in this machine (to a better one)  ???

Thanks in advance.

Chris

Hi Chris,

Upgrading the video chip is not a viable option as it is soldered to the motherboard.

Hi Chris, alternatively you should wait for the Lenovo Ideapad Y500, see details following this link:
