Graphics Card Upgrade?

[Alan16ac]

Looking on PCS's website to see what upgrades they offer for my laptop. There's all sorts on there, CPUs, hard drives, RAM, but there are no options under graphics card.
I was thinking of upgrading to the newer GTX 980M, ready for some high res gaming on GTA V. Do you think I need it or should I stick with what I have?
And is it even possible?

The limitation for gpu upgrades is the availability of a bios to accept the new card in the chassis. I don't believe PCS offer GPU upgrades in laptops, but there are 3rd party sites that will supply the cards, but then you'll need to contact PCS to see if they'll supply a bios, if not you have to resort to a modified bios which will void warranty. Your card is still pretty current and high end, I'd hold off for a little while.

Okay thanks. I'll leave it for now, and maybe contact them in the future, if I do want to upgrade.

There are Eurocom who stock replacement graphics cards for the Vortex (I believe your model is the P150sm-a), if you look further down the list, there are some options. Bloody expensive though as you'll see.
