Can you update the Go GPU in Vaio's?

[SgtWhiskeyjack]

I've just bought the AR31S. It's a beautiful machine, but would be even better if I could upgrade the 7600GT to 7950 model.
This is the first notebook I've owned, so I'm not too clued up on whether there is a PCI slot or AGP, or if the Go GPU's are actually part of the mother board.
Does anyone know if it is possible or where I could find out?

Is it possible to put a graphical card esterna to the AR? Where it is possible to buy? Regards

 Where it is possible to buy?

It is not available yet but will be released soon.

The first ones will only come with a 7900GS card.

You connect it through Express Card Port so if your laptop has one you will be able to use it.

Express Card is kind of next generation of PCMCIA, faster and smaller :smileygrin:
