Hi.

I bought the one with the price error today. Its an awesome deal but I really want to run games on it, but I kept the default video and didnt upgrade with the only option available which was the 256MB ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650 because I didnt think its powerful enough.


So can I upgrade to a better vid card for the laptop? If not I will cancel or return it.

Thanks

I'm pretty sure they'll have to cancel off your existing order and start a new one, depending on the status of your order. This means they'll be repricing at whatever the prevailing price is, minus whatever discounts are applicable.

I wanted to upgrade the vid card like we can do in a desktop but I just found out we cant upgrad an intergrated graphic card.

oh well. bye bye lappy

I didn't realize when all the craziness was happening that it's an integrated card, not a dedicated one like my Dell that can mod...

Sorry if I helped slap your trigger finger earlier.
