    I have a Compaq Presario F700 laptop and was wondering if it is possible to upgrade the NVIDIA GeForce 7000M to a better video card / chipset so it can handle recent games at a decent frame rate ?

    Is this easily done ? ( like a removeable mobile PCIE chip ) or is it more difficult.

    To be honest, if it's difficult / impossible or for whatever reason not worth it, is ther a laptop that will handle games quite well without having to take out a mortgage to get an 'Alienware' gaming laptop ?
