Hey ppl. Has anyone ever replaced his laptop's gfx card?

Actually I've bought a dell ins. 1564 a month ago. Its got an Ati Mobility radeon Hd 5450. The card's not very powerful for new games but i'm ok with it.
I was just wondering could the gfx card be replaced. After wandering here n there on net i found out quite a lot of things, but not the alternative (n more powerful) gfx cards which can replace my current one. Since ive just bought thf lap. I'm not going to take the risk, but maybe later.

To upgrade the graphics card of your laptop, ur laptop must be a MXM (Mobile PCI Express Module) certified one. For current gen Graphics card , you need MXM II standard. I searched some sites which provide the list of MXM cerified laptops, but Sorry to say, probably urs one is not MXM II certified. So you won't be able to upgrade it.
