You can't upgrade a laptop. Even if you could it would be cheeper to buy an entire new system from the ground up. ^^ roughly $400 for a working system that far exceeds the minimum requirements for FFXI.

Uh..while that is true...he wasn't talking about upgrading his entire laptop..just his video card, which you can do, depending on the laptops. However, most new laptops let you upgrade the video card.

I suggest going to nvidia.com or searching google.com.

It shouldn't be hard to find one at all...

PC stuff
Dell laptops are very good, but usually with laptops its a buy as is type of deal. There are tradeup programs so you can "upgrade" your laptop, but upgrading seperate hardware isnt really a good idea money wise. Unfortunately, from experience, I can say that Toshibas are peice of junk. Sorry Lady Kelenae. They arent as bad as say Compaq, but alot of students in my class, when I was going to school, got toshibas and had many problems. I would say the least problematic Laptops are probably Dells and Sagers. Sagers are tanks so expect a heavy machine if you get one of those. Its almost as sturdy as a nahgra. ~^^~ If you don't really need a laptop I would suggest getting a desktop computer, since it would be cheeper to get a desktop computer with the same hardware as a laptops, and desktops are much more easy to upgrade. ~JYAN~

If you want a Nvidia Geforce Go 64Meg or Quadro x4 you can get them for £100 easy at any Computer Fair.

I got my Geforce 4 Ti 4400 128meg for like £90 and my friend got riped off and he got a Geforce 4 Mx 64meg for £100, so the prices very.
