Hello everyone, I am new here, I have been reffered to this site from Nvidia Geforce Forums.
I own an Alienware m18x (R1) I use ( ) because it has been modded a lot and not from me so it hasnt any similarity to a true R1.
The sad part is that after one year of mid-use my computer started black screens and stuff.
We (me and my tech) believe that its a burned GPU / Problematic One. (I have currently Nvidia Geforce GTX 675m installed).
I want everyone who knows and can help me to tell me which card can my machine support, for an upgrade.
I am currently aware of that video
so no I am not looking for that upgrade.I am currently looking forward to change my card to Nvidia Geforce 880m and I want to know if my system can support that upgrade.
My Mobile PCI Express Module is MXM 3
I have a 330 watt power supply for my Laptop.
My Processor is ARK | Intel® Core
I also have 2x 4GB DDR3 Memory Sticks and 2x2 2GB DDR3 currently 12 GM RAM installed.
Here are some photos of my card.

I am expecting for answers that can have a huge posibility of success 95%, I dont want to burn my machine,niether buy a card that cant be used.
I am willing to give more info about everything that is needed, BIOS version details about each part watt-volt usage etc.
Suggestions are also welcome.
Thanks for your time.
