17 R1, upgrading graphics card

Hi everyone! I've got Alienware 17, m17x. It is not r1 or 2 or the others, just m17x.
Not the 2009-2012 M17x series. DELL-Admin>

Its specifications are:

Motherboard: VAS00 LA-9331P (rev:1.0 - A00)
Processor: Intel i7 - 4910MQ (overclocked up to 4.1Ghz)
RAM: 32 GB
Graphics card: Nvidia Geforce Gtx 880M (It's the broken one)

On motherboard everything is separable, processor and graphics card. They are not embedded to it. My laptop is not that bad even though I got it in 2014. That's why I want to rescue him from this nightmare   I can buy the same graphics card but right now it's a chance for me to upgrade my laptop a little bit. The thing is I don't know which one would be suitable for my laptop. Due to that I need your help. Which graphics card would not tire my laptop? Or do you have any other suggestions for this situation about what to do? Thanks already.
