Default Laptop GPU

Well I'm looking into a Dell Laptop, it has a X300M and I would like to put something a little more powerful, anyone know of people who make them?

While some laptops can have their GPUs upgraded, I really doubt a Dell laptop can. Most laptops have the GPU integrated on the motherboard; I'm pretty sure the X300 is an IGP on the motherboard.

Your best bet for a gaming laptop is to hunt for a Barebones Laptop. Some can cost as little as $700, and come with videocards like a GeForce 7700GO. You just have to stick a CPU and RAM in.

I think it's a Dell Inspiron 6000(d)

Anyone know where to get GPU's for these? I won a 7900GT from nvidia awhile ago, wonder if I could find someone to trade.
