    Like most of you guys on this forum, i haev the 5790 and am planning on upgrading to the latest mobo/gfx card being released soon...however it got me thinking about the future capabilities of this lappy....my concern is:

    MAIN QUESTION.
    1. will this new mobo allow for future gfx cards down the road? if so, to what gfx cards? i hope we dont have to upgrade to a new motherboard again

    Other concerns.
    2. am i able to upgrade to an internal hd/blu ray dvd player in this lappy?

    3. my headphone jack is no longer working, is this motherboard related?

    regards, frank

    3. Possibly.
