The graphics card in the nw9440 is modular and completely removable. It's not a matter of it being possible to do it, it's a matter of me finding one with 512 mb.

I have a first run nw9440 with a 256mb 1500m graphics card. I really would like the 512mb version. Is it possible to purchase just that part?

I have the HP nw9440. I want to get 3 gigs total (maximum addressable by windows XP it seems). I have 2x1 gb sticks now. If I get a 2gb stick, can I swap out one of the 1gb sticks and have both of them work? I am worried because I...

This is one of the reasons I returned mine. It had a type of overlay on middle greys and blues. Doing lots of texture work in photoshop made this unnaceptable. The colors were also a bit shallow, not very rich.

I own the nw9440 and I briefly tried an asus w3j which has an x1600 and I can confirm that the 1500m destroys the x1600, it's not even close. However if you aren't into gaming or 3d work, stick with the x1600, it's a decent card.

It definately registers more than three key presses. I use ctrl+alt+shift+s for save in photoshop, and in games I strafe forward and jump at the same time too. I'll try to run those benchmark apps when I get some time this weekend. I...

I don't ever care about fan noise since I keep a house fan in my room on at all times, and always have music on, but it's deathly quiet most times, and the fan has only ever kicked into an audible level when playing extended periods of...
