    Is it possible to upgrade the Go 7400 in my XPS M1210? What kind of interface is used? Thanks.

    Sorry, it is not possible. The 950GMA is soldered to the board.

    I have a 7400 card in my machine now. What I'm asking is can I swap this card for a 7600 or better?

    Generally, it is not possible to upgrade video cards, unless it is an MXM card. I do not think that the Go 7400 is an MXM card.

    They make no other card in that form factor from what I have read over the last few months. I have one too :)
