Question:
Graphic Card update
http://www.compusa.com/products/prod...ct_code=336978
Here is what I currently have being held for me till tomorrow. I don't think I'm going to be able to beat that price. What I need to know though is if I get that one will I be able to change out that X1400 for a X1600 128mb or 256mb card? I believe there are steps here that will teach me how to do it so I don't really need that. I just need to know will I be able to if say I wanted to upgrade sometime in the future.
Also I have some guy that works in a computer store seeing whats the best deal he can get me on a gaming mobile laptop. So i'm waiting to hear his reply on that as well. Since he's a friend he's going to try to get me the excat price the maunfactor will send it out for. He's also looking at the higher end carded ones with X1800/7800 ones so I'm not expecting the 899 price tag I see on the one above.

Thank you for the extremely fast replies.

I've read the recommendations of others who wanted the samething I did with around the same price range so I have a good idea on the recommandations and have narrowed down my laptop choices to only a small few. 1 being the one listed above. 2 being an acer from newegg with X1600 for 1049. I've also went to hp website and found one from around the same price as the one on newegg but just a tab bit higher. The last choice being whatever my friend shows me tomorrow. I'd give actually links to the laptops I was picking between but I have to get going soon. I'll add them later if needed.
Also keep in mind I plan to update next year with a different processer so I'm not sure how much money I want to spend. This one I'm buying now will go to my gf who doesn't really game at all so the X1400 will be more than what she needs.
