Basically what the title says. I am in the market for a laptop computer with a QX9300 quad core and a decent graphics card. Looking at nvidia's site, i noticed that the GeForce® GTX 260M is about 3 times as powerful as the GT 130M that comes with the HP HDX 18t.

I was wondering if it is possible to simply replace the GT 130M that comes with the HP HDX 18t with a GeForce® GTX 260M or 280M and whether or not it has slots to SLI.

If it is possible, i want to go with HP since it would cost me less than actually buying an alienware for example (plus i could upgrade at my leisure rather than spending money on it now when it is still pretty expensive).

my price range is around 2.2k-2.5k

I'm 100% sure you can't upgrade laptop graphics.
