If anyone else here who has a Dell M1530 and has taken it apart they may have noticed that it’s quite easy to get to the CPU, GPU, RAM and HDD (much easier than my previous HP).

I already know I can get new RAM or a new larger HDD from the likes of eBay but what I’ve never seen in a laptop GPU.

Does anyone know if these can actually be bought or are they only sold to the like of Dell etc to put into a pre built system?

Not a big deal really but I thought it may keep my laptop alive for longer (I’m thinking about swapping out the 2 GB of RAM for 4 already).

Already done, didn't come up with anything however I was wondering if anyone here has done it or maybe knows it's not possible.

Did you contact Dell yet?

Na, I would rather do it myself, I'm nothing really thinking about doing it soon, in the next few months.

Plus everytime I've ever talked to Dell has been a nightmare, love the system, hate the service :rant:
