I haven't touched the graphics card I'm unsure if it's PCI E or bult in. If it's built in no bingo if it's not the sky is the limit

No, you cannot upgrade most laptop GPUs. However, the performance difference between a 640M and a 660M would be hardly noticeable.

I have not had the need to upgrade, but I know when I bought it there were options on how much RAM so I assume it can be upgraded after purchase. My experience is that unlike desktops, a laptop should be worked on by a professional unless you are really comfortable opening them up.

You generally cannot upgrade the graphics card in a laptop. Same with processor.

There is an integrated Intel graphics card. However, I would always recommend a dedicated GPU over integrated, if and when you could afford one.

I am not sure if it's possible to upgrade to the latest technology, it has limited slots and physical internal space to add memory, upgrade processor and so on.. I sold this computer already cause it is discontinued but when I asked that question the geeksquad [best buy] estimated around $400 if you provide the parts..

You'll want a better graphics chip for gaming. It could probably run, but not terribly well.

about $400 for a decent processor, you cant upgrade a laptop graphics chip. go to xoticpc.com and find some newer laptops for gaming. you can also customize it before you order it. most msi have the awesome keyboard lights and cost a lot less.

I upgraded graphics card and power supply , however even before doing do it could still run newer games just average specs on graphics unless you upgrade , mainly lacks shadow detail (stock graphics card) but still def worth it

Probably you don't need a new one (although some older cards and low powered stuff might not handle it). Since your card has mini display port I;d guess that it probably can handle it though. What graphics card?You want one that does UHD at 60Hz over DisplayPort.

This is an older model laptop. While still a great computer capable of gaming on the go, it has been discontinued by Alienware. Several sellers here have already upgraded the ram to 8gb but if you purchase one that does not have it upgraded, you would need to purchase 2x4gb sticks of DDR3 1066 ram. It is an easy upgrade, you just remove the screws on the bottom panel and once removed, replace the existing sticks with the new ones. Just be warned of the additional cost of having to purchase the ram. It may be more beneficial to buy one from a seller that has already performed the upgrade.

No you cannot. It is very rare to find any laptop that can be upgraded in terms of processor and/or graphics card. Only desktops have that privilege.

The Asus X750JA that I purchased from this supplier has a Intel HD4000 non-dedicated Graphics card that basically does very little. No nVidia Graphics, and make sure if you do buy an upgrade that it fits, this laptop is the 7mm-thick-hard-drive-kind. If you're desire is to game, this probably isn't the right laptop for you.

The graphics card is soldered to the motherboard. In fact, almost all, if not all, laptops cannot have their CPU or GPU upgraded unless the one doing the upgrade is an expert in computer repair.

No you cannot. All laptop manufacturers have been built this way since the beginning. Laptops are built whwre everything basic is on the system board. All you can hardware upgrade is HDD, ODD, Ram. Whatever video you got with the Laptop is permanent. Nvidia, ATI, Intel built graphics. I prefer Nvidia.

It already has the latest graphics card (670). I don't think you can change the hardware, but you can upgrade the driver by going to www.nvidia.com Just let the website automatically detect the graphics card and tell you the current driver and if necessary install the latest driver.
