Hi all,
Feel free to move this if it is in the wrong location.
I am looking to buy a Dell Inspirion 8600 laptop in the near future (this week) and was wondering if the video card is upgradable. The base card it comes with is a GeForce FX Go5200 32MB card. I was thinking about getting this and upgrading the video later down the road if it were at all possible. This is my first notebook and dont really know my way around its guts. What can and cant be upgraded in these things? I called the geniuses at Dell and asked them this question and they said it was "not recommended" which to me means, "yes you can, but we dont tell people how to do it because they will fark stuff up". What is the real deal?
