Removing internal graphics card when using the Alienware Amplifier

Some reasons:

- increase air flow in the case

- lower the power usage as I'm not using the card

- potentially selling the internal card

Anyone know of any side-effects if doing this?

I always thought they ran together sort of like a hybrid type system.  Is there a reason you want to remove your internal gpu?

Hmm Good answers..  I can try and ask someone who may know, and this response will 'bump' up your question too.  

Hello!  So I received a response and basically it boils down to Dell never having tried it so they don't know.  If your laptop/desktop has a removable GPU, you can always give it a shot and see (if you haven't already).  I highly doubt it would harm anything.

well since the laptops don't have  removable gpu anymore  chances are slim :O

but for something like the X51 I can see  where this might be a nice advantage, less stress on the power brick  .. to bad I don't have an amp.. :(*
