    I update my laptop's vga

    I have thought to put the F6Ve 4570 3650 or my problem is the consumption of
    latter power about 30 watts vs 12 watts consumed by the current.

    in any case the 4570 should be no problem right?


    my english is bad sorry

    with the increase in power, you will have an substaintial increase in your heat output with the VGA upgrade... its probably not a wise choice with that ammount of difference between them...

    If the temperature increases only thing I ask and I would like to know is whether it is possible
    then if it is which is the most desirable to increase 3D performance and not much
    consumption.

    Suggest consider a DIY ViDock instead to improve graphics performance. Will be signifcantly faster than a HD3650/4570 without having an adverse affect on battery life. Can do a US$220 GTS450 or US$280 GTX460 setup.
