  • Replacing m15x Graphics Card.?

    I bought an Alienware m15x 4 months ago. It's my first laptop and I just started playing Starcraft 2 with it.

    I have a 512MB NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 240M card right now, but I want to upgrade a step to the ATI Radeon HD 5730 card.(since that's what alienware recommended). When I was customizing the laptop on their website, I didnt bother to upgrade it, but I can't play SC2 with High Visual settings like my friends. I have to play on Low instead of Ultra...

    Can I take it somewhere, like Best Buy, to have them upgrade it for me? Or am I stuck with this card?

    I found this video, the guy takes the graphics card out at about 8 minutes in. Can i just put the new one in? Is it plug and Play?
