    The fastest cards available are the Go 7600/7700 and the Mobility X1600/X1700. It is very difficult to upgrade graphics in a notebook, because of size, thermal and power constraints. So, if you are considering buying a notebook, then go for the graphics card you want, rather than thinking of upgrading it. Hope this helps.
