I would like to upgrade my graphics card
I am thinking of upgrading my graphics card for my Alienware m17x R4. I would like a nvidia gtx 970m, a gtx 980m or something in that range. Can i buy this from dell? Would these cards meet my system requirements?
I would love to send my service tag to a dell employee who answers this post, for further information on my machine.

The GPU can be upgraded by mean of an MXM III card on this model.
There should be both options -- you can try Dell or look for a reseller of Clevo notebook parts (Clevo supplies most ot the "boutique" brands like Sager, Falcon Northwest, etc.).
A desktop GTX970 runs over $300 -- expect the mobile version to come in around triple that, and a 980 to be well over $1,000.
