Alienware Aurora M9700 graphix cards

Can someone please tell what newer graphix cards will be compatible with my Aurora M9700...Alienware support is no help at all. Currently I have dual NVIDIA 7900 GS with 256MB. Yes I know they are old, thats why I want to replace them. Please help!

The answer lies in whatever Alienware shipped with this model - you can 't use anything other than what they sold with it.  Notebook cards are proprietary and require BIOS level support- nothing other than what Alienware offered with this model will work (close isn't good enough - cards from a successor model won't work).

Thanks for your instruction! It is just the solution for my problem.

Sure, if you can find one and you're a gambler.  About the only place you'll find them is EBay -- and note that all of the nvidia 79xx series is part of the class action settlement - so reliability isn't a strong point.
