I'm pretty sure that Nvidia and AMD graphics cards use different chipsets, and as such wouldn't be interchangeable in your laptop (unless you wanted to change that too, which would be extraneously and unnecessarily expensive).

No, no they do not. You're thinking AMD and Intel. At least I hope you are. When it comes to MXM III b graphics interfaces its very easy and painless to do a card hotswap and driver change.
