| Brand is Fujitsu siemens. I do have a PCI-EX slot x1. Teh only thing is for laptops pci video cards are all different so i need to know if they exist for my model. I found one in Australia but they dont export it. I can get a normal desktop pc with good graphics,cpu RAM and etc but at the end of this year im moving to a diff country so would there be a point? | |

| It is most likely that you can not upgrade the graphics card in your laptop, and if you can it is probably a difficult process. I would go for the desktop im confused why moving would make it so there wouldn't be a point power suplies these days can handle 240 or 120 v powergrids | |

| Yeh might consider buying a desktop. But moving is difficult cuz im going on to higher studies in Switzerland so idk about accomodation or even if im going to have enuf space or time for a desktop. Ill just get a good laptop lol. Ty anyway tho.
P.S Intel should just stick with making processors, their integrated chipsets are just made to piss people off | |

| Usually, a laptop with an upgradeable video card is easy to upgrade. My Dell just had a cover you had to take off, then 2 screws.
so basivcally, it took me 10 minutes to change my 8700gt to an 8800gtx SLI setup =D
Man I miss that laptop =( | |

| that was prolly a high end dell xps if it had a 8700gt to begin with laptops with integrated chips like r4v has won't be upgradable. If you do choose to get a new laptop make sure you get a three year warrenty to make sure you get your moneys worth. Laptops are prone to failure and 20-23% of them need repairs within one year. As long as you have a desk where your moving then you got room for a desktop, and for the same pricepoint their much more powerfull and reliable | |

| hmmm blue screen is a data base problem or needs to have registry fix !
sometimes registry error will come up and give you the blue screen of death !
unless you know wat specific problem that u have... its hard to fix..
what does it say do u get any errors?
and if not i would try using "advanced system care" free download !
that can fix some of ur registry errors and cleans up your pc really well..
also had a ram booster and a game booster utility that works real well to speed up you comp..
hope this helped AZZY boy !! | |

| its a program to free up your system ram
it closes all unnecessary programs to make your computer run faster with more memory while playing a game..
ur looking at maybe 900-1100 euros for a good laptop man thats even if u get a killer deal...
thats just me though cause i would want all the top of the line for max performance because games are only getting better and better and require alot more | |
