Hi all
I was looking at the HD7970 upgrade for the M17 R2, I found one on ebay...
Original Alienware AMD HD 7970M 2GB GDDR5 -for M15x, M17x , M18x ,promotion | eBay
but it states
Hi it is NOT plug and play for some laptops , you may need to flash vBios
only plug and play on intel Gen 3 PM77 chipset laptops, eg m17x R4, m18x R2 etc
how difficult would this be?
Cheers

Not that difficult, I think there are some guides on this forum on how to set up your machine to run with the 7970m.
