Question:
Inspiron 9300 with ATI MOBILITY RADEON X700
Is this configuration available?
It seems like dell.com doesn't have it.
P.S. can I buy X700 later and replace X300?

Don't believe so. The 6800 is a better card anyway.

Yeah, it's not avaliable. They offer two video card options - the Mobility Radeon X300 and the Go6800. Non-gamers go for the X300, gamers go for the Go6800.
There really isn't any point to them adding the X700 as an option, as if you are going to pay for an upgrade, might as well get the Go6800 anyway.
For a 17" with an X700, try the Sager 5710 or the Asus Z83V.

Ok. Thanx!
How good is Go6800 for Counter-Strike: Source?
P.S. where can you recommend to find cheap Sager 5710?

NO, the best video card available for the 9300 is the nvidia 6800 go card, did you get this one with your system? it is far superior to the ati x700.
Laptop video cards are proprietary, meaning that unless dell offers a particular video card for your particular laptop, you cannot buy another one.
Laptops arent like desktops where you can go to best buy and get whatever video card you want because laptops do not follow a standardized form factor such as the desktops atx factor.
You can upgrade to the 6800 go card from nvidia which again, is far superior to the ati x700 card.
