Hi DXistheman,
Inspiron™ N5010 / 15R supports Intel® Corei3 and Intel® Corei5.
The Inspiron™ N5010 / 15R also comes with a discrete video solution ATI Radeon™ HD 5470. This uses 1024 MB video memory and utilizes DDR 3 memory.
This computer has been tested with the below Video cards. I recomend using the same video card for better performance.
Awaiting your response!

You'd have to replace the mainboard to upgrade the video - add the cost of the board ($250-300) and CPU ($200+) and you're better off buying a higher-end system and selling the one you have.
