replacing nvidia geforce gt 650m from alienware m14x

[dololider]

Just a question. Can you replace a geforce gt 650m from an alienware computer?

[Kano™]

no, there built into the motherboard.

[dololider]

Ok. Where can i buy a new motherboard?

[dololider]

or can i add a new graphics card?

Well you can add a external video card, but those are not as good as the one you have now. I would just sell the m14x and biuld a pc, if you want more power.

[dololider]

ok so for external, what type are you talking about

Well I am not a expert on them, but I asume that do to bottle necking they may be slower. Any ways they are your best bet Besides biulding a pc as far as I know. But I would ask around a bit for a more for info.

Lol, That 650m overclocks like a beast. If you overvolt you can get an extra 30-45% better performance with it.

Assuming, you meant you somehow fried the 650m, You can always set a eGPU, Which is a actual desktop graphics card...

You can readup on them, and how to set them up on Notebookreview.com/Forums.
It usually requires you to get a x16 Adapter/riser card, that plugs into a few ports on your machine. It will only give you about 50%+ Of the actauly Graphics cards performance, simply because it's limited to the bandwidth of the ports/risercard you have. But still, That's pretty impressive perfromance none the less.

I have a Alienware laptop and the graphics can be removed by the owner, BUT you cannot upgrade the graphics card you can only replace it with the same model. I had too replace mine due too it failing but it was under warranty and Alienware sent me a new graphics card with complete instructions on replacing it.

ok, thanks
