    Hi, I got a clevo P150hm with the 6990m two weeks ago. I heard AMD will release new mobile graphics card very soon. Can I pay the reseller to upgrade the graphics card for me?

    first if they are capable of such upgrade, then they will tell. then here's the hard part, whenever new gpus just came out from ati/nvidia, you can seldom see them selling the new gpus in retail, but you can search for various resellers if they have a stock gpu of your precision and inquire.

    ^ very true. If someone knows how to replace the paste then it'll be cake.
