If you have a video card installed via an MXM port you can change the video card. Though this does involve some serious dismantling of the laptop. Removing and reseating the heatsink/pipe/fan assembly.
Prior to removal, uninstall the old video drivers.
There are few different MXM specs, with different wattage ratings. You will want to make sure the wattages match (or are lower then the original card)

here http://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeForce-GTX-560M.48313.0.html says: "The power consumption of the GeForce GTX 560M should be about 75 Watt (TDP including the MXM board and memory)," and here http://www.notebookcheck.net/NVIDIA-GeForce-GTX-670M.72197.0.html says "The power consumption of the GeForce GTX 670M is in the same ballpark as the old GTX 470M, which is rumored to be about 75 Watt (TDP including the MXM board and memory)."
Its good right?

Upgrading components on laptops is usually impossible, there are a very few, very expensive modular type laptops that let you do this thing but I know nothing about that. Yours is not one of these machines.
