When I get home and check the specs on my desktop I will post them and ask about upgrading it. I want to use dual screens, and upgrade it video card wise and possible power supply if needed.
 
um, you got a brand new system! What the heck! It's a pretty decent one too. There's not much nor can you upgrade much.
 
You cannot upgrade the video card on that laptop. And judging from the specs, I don't see anything else you'd need to upgrade. As Tedster said, it's a new system, so why would you want to upgrade it now?
 
I wasnt going to upgrade i now, I was just curious what upgrades are available if any, my pc is what I really want to upgrade
