    Hello

    Is the discrete ATI Graphics Card replacable (not by HP itself) by an Nvidia Card (8400, 8600,...)?

    I'm an Nvidia fanboy and would like some more Graphics Power in the Elitebook ;)

    Regards

    hmm.. doubt it.
    I have seen a few benchmarks and it looks like the 3450 is a bit faster than an X1600 maybe an 8600GS? (guess)

    edit: so the 3450 is significantly faster than the 8400. by the way the IGP HD 3200 in puma is about the same speed as the 8400
