GPU upgrade on Dell 7670
Hi All,
I am new to Dell laptops, so my question may sound noobish.
I have Dell 7670 Precision portable workstation, which is equipped with RTX A2000 GPU (8GB).
For some of my tasks, it is not enough, so I would like to upgrade to RTX A4500 or RTX A5500 (16GB).
Has anyone done something similar? Is it possible? Is it possible to do at home or in service center only?
If it is possible, would it require other changes?
I have not found any direct indication that this can be done. But neither I found any direct message that this cannot be done.
I would appreciate any information and hints.
Thanks in advance

The GPU in these systems is not soldered but is proprietary -- you would need to call Dell to get a price (be sure you're seated when you call) on the card. Installation would be at your expense and choice of shop (and could affect the warranty) -- Dell does not do post-purchase upgrades.

@Ruben.Ghafadaryan Take a look at your spec options.
And heres a link to your laptops service manual on the GPU upgrade:

@Ruben.Ghafadaryan May be best to check online first since it will be cheaper then what Dell would quote
