Alienware M14x R2
Hi guys, basically i have had my alienware for almost 2 years now.
These are my specs (i think),
Processor : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3610QM CPU @ 2.30Ghz
Installed memory (RAM) :16.0GB
BIOS : InsydeH2O Version 03.72.07A03
Graphics:
Intel(R) HD Graphics 4000
I can't play games such as Battlefield 3 or Crysis 2 without the game lagging or being very slow. Sometimes, they shut down on it's own. Plus, i want to improve the hardware of my laptop. What do you recommend I buy to (1) Decrease the temperature of my GPU (runs at about 80-90 max), (2) speed up my computer for games and general use.?
Regards,
Zeyotshi

Hello Zeyotshi,
Alienware M14XR2 is shipped with Integrated Intel HD Graphics 4000 (Core i7 IvyBridge) and Discreet nVidia GeForce GT 650M (Optional). The discrete card is soldered on motherboard. Hence in order to upgrade the video card, the motherboard needs to be replaced.
