I can't read hardware stuff to save my life. I'm assuming this outperforms my GeForce 9300M GS |

When I go get my PC updated.
I go to Best Buy and ask "Can you upgrade this and put new cards and stuff in it to make it faster for games."
And that's all I need to ask, because they do everything for me.
But the cost is annoying. |

From what I see on here
If you can I recommend getting the 3D capabilities if possible. I have an Alienware MX17. I have the 3D stuff and I can go into so much more detail it would bore you. As of I can see, you have good taste at the moment. |

@silly
I'm getting the M14X. I really don't see much point in 3D games. |

@Artia,
I'm trying not to go over $200 on this upgrade.
@ Sasuke, Love the trailer, looks epic, master chief looks more detailed, classic battle rifle is back :D
@Silly I might go from 520 to 530 (Only difference is 3D Video Capability)but I doubt it. |

| I recommend the one up than the M15.. the screen for that is so small.. Brilliant computer though I had the pleasure on owning one. My whole family uses nothing but Alienware. (we get like a 45% discount of any purchase of dell products) |

Vrix; go big or go home.
Or more bang for your buck; when you think about it, if you would spend lets say.. 70$ for an upgrade but get the one up for 10 dollars more. Do it, for a computer its worth it in the long run.
