    Please read the GPU guide.

    No, you cannot upgrade your GPU.

    Whaaa... when you manage to put a 7900 GTX in a 15.4" call me I will do the same... :D

    Yeaah... the 7900 GTX is only slightly more powerful than the 7300 excluding only the few light years between them... :D

    Sorry, you can not do that.

    oh~ sorry, probably, A6J cannot upgrade the video, even another high-end model. According to manufacturer's response, not all the models are available to have a replacement with another GPU!!

    Yeah guys, a bit less harsh. You were probably yelling at me 2 weeks ago :). Yeah, you can not replace that.
