Right off the assembly line
I am planning to buy Dell Inspiron 1525 ,having Intel 965GM Chipset.It has Intel Integrated Graphics Media Accelerator X3100 .Can I get a 256MB NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT installed in it.
Will I get that installed in place of X3100 from the vendors.??
I think it will give better performance than X3100.

^ Thanks for the details, didnt know all that.. :) But I think that he'd want to stay with the Inspiron Tag as it is the perfect balance between Performance and Value.
