    Nope...not MXM. Can't upgrade the video.

    You can add some RAM to help your BF2...but I doubt you'll get anywhere near high settings with that GPU. It might make gameplay more fluid at medium though.

    Not all Dells are "mxm". And the ones that are...are a modified Dell-specific version of MXM. Features like that are rarely available across the brand name, but model specific. There are some Gateways that have MXM slots...but most don't. Yours does not.
