There is no replacement LED keyboard you can install in the GX740. You can custom make one, but it takes a lot of time and effort... and epoxy, and LED lights... so it's up to you to try it.
As far as I'm aware (I even asked for assurance), you cannot replace the screen either. The frame is different, and there is no compatible screen that would fit. -
i dont understan way it cant be don?
all keyboard has a same chip and cable....and all led like same ... so way not? -
no additional port for powering LED

The LED keyboards require extra power to light the LEDs. Also, you would need to find a keyboard that properly fits the chassis, which is another task in itself. Similar ribbon cable = yes. Same connection/pin count = no.

You can upgrade the screen to a 1920x1200 1xCCFL 30pin connector (I did in mine). FullHD screens are not compatible, as they are in 16:9 format, whereas GX740 is in 16:10.

(Out-ninja'ed again; bless it!).
linekhat - I believe a replacement LCD screen runs anywhere from $80 starting (for a cheap replacement) up to several hundred ($200+). -
ooooo boy

As for the CPU, the i7-820QM cost me $110 at the time of purchase, but... I have a 920XM on the way (bought off eBay for $265).
1920x1200 1xCCFL screen cost me $90.
16GB DDR3-1333 (2x8GB SO-DIMM) -> $80.
AMD 7970M -> $480 + shipping (I bought the card from R&J Tech). It's a Clevo card, initially it came with Enduro enabled vBIOS for EM Clevos, I had to blind flash a HM vBIOS with Enduro disabled.
Intel X25-M cost me $370 at the time of purchase. It was a long time ago, at that time Intel's price for the SSD was $440/piece with 1000pcs purchase, so it was a pretty good deal for me.
WD Scorpio Blue 1TB -> $107.
2xWD Caviar Green 2TB was 2x$99 (at the time of purchase, of course).
Welland ME-580J enclosure was $105.
Intel Ultimate-N 6300 WiFi card was $48.
Targus 180W PSU was $49. My laptop originally came with a 120W PSU. I had to buy a 180W one in order to be able to make any hardware upgrades, like stronger CPU and GPU. BTW, the 120W PSU died when I OCed the 5870M GPU. It had too much to handle, I guess.
If You add all the prices together, it will turn out that it would be cheaper to get a new laptop (If I were to buy a new laptop today, I'd go for Clevo P170EM/Sager NP9170). Mind You, I was spending my money gradually over a period of 3 years (I bought the MS-1727 barebone in January 2010). However, with a 7970M and 920XM the laptop will go on par with current generation, brand new gaming laptops. -
