The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved.

I own a M17xR4 which is around 4 years old. The GPU is a GTX 675M. Is it possible for me to change the graphics card to something better, like a GTX 960M or so?
Yes, but right now you would have to go to Win 8.1 or higher.
Swick1981 is working on modding the BIOS so the 900 series of nVidia cards will work with Win 7. I think he is done, but it hasn't been tested yet. The GTX 960M isn't much of a bump up from the GTX 675.
Ya ! my cards da best ! HAHA. No,m seriously, I pride myself on attempting to be the very BEST supplier. A lot of growing pains, like I'm definetly the small business type, but I try and have the best support. Many other companies can't afford the time and effort to help buyers, but I can not afford NOT to help you ! Maybe oneday I will be big enough to actually have a degrade in service and quality and still be successful. Seems all good companies die from this eventually. Bah, I think i'm going nuts trying to download Game Of Thrones Episode I missed cause stupid PVR recorded too many shows at once, and didn't tell us until it was too late..argh
