I have a Toshiba Satellite A665D-S6051 that I bought nearly a year ago. It has a ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4250 gfx card and has 256MB-1917MB dynamically allocated shared graphics memory. I own a PS3, which is why I never bought a desktop. I also travel a LOT so I have no intentions to trade up for a desktop. So my only real choice is to upgrade what I have. I play some games on my laptop, like Minecraft. Which after the recent update has started lagging on my laptop. Maybe that's due mostly to all my high-res mods. So what's a great card to upgrade to? My limit is around $500 or $600. It really depends on whether or not I'll need to upgrade anything else for it to work properly. Here's a link to more info on the laptop. My laptop is 100% stock hardware. http://us.toshiba.com/computers/laptops/satellite/A660/A665D-S6051/

You can't upgrade. Should have put more money toward the laptop when you bought it

It's impossible to upgrade the video card in a laptop. It's soldered onto the motherboard. This is one of many reasons laptops suck ass for gaming.
