    ok I have Asus A42JC with Specs like this:

    - Intel Core I5 - 430M 2.26GHZ
    - NVIDIA Ge Force 310M 1G with Optimus Technology
    - Ram 3G

    Now my Question is this. Is it possible for me to replace the Video Card on my Laptop ? Im really sick of My Nvidia Ge Force 310M. I can't Play much game with that crappy graphic card. IT REALLY PISSES ME OFF.

    I know there are some laptops which we can replace the video card. But im not sure If ASUS A42JC is one of laptop like that.

    if there is anyone who did this, i would like some info on it. and what kind of Video Card Would you Recommend. Thank you.

    Assuming the A42JC is similar to a A42JV in terms of the motherboard, the GPU is soldered and cannot be removed. See here.
