Alienware 14 gtx 780

Hello All,

Question, could a GTX 780m be installed into an Alienware 14 down the track? I prefer the 14' display but am scared the standard GTX 765m may die off to quickly.

Cheers!

The answer is no - this model doesn't have a separate video card.  The video chip is soldered to the mainoboard and not removeable or upgradeable.

Hi jro4sho,

The Alienware 14 ships with a discrete graphic solution in addition to the on-board graphics card to enable nVidia Optimus technology.

Graphics options:

Integrated (UMA) — Intel® HD Graphics 4600

Discrete — nVidia GeForce GT 750M

Discrete — nVidia GeForce GTX 765M

We cannot upgrade the Video card as it is soldered onto the motherboard.

Please reply for further questions.
