    Can you upgrade the graphics card in a GE620-021?
    Right now it has the GT540, with 1 Gb of DDR3. This is pretty much the deciding factor on whether I get this, or preorder the GX680. :D

    No. You can probably upgrade to an AMD 6770m gddr5.

    I don't know what prices are like, but you should be able to get a ge620 for less than the gx680.
