#1 Post by twr7cx » Sun May 18, 2008 4:57 am

Is it possible to upgrade the grpahics of the R61e from the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator X3100 to the 128MB nVidia Quadro NVS 140M or are these build into the main board?

You can't do it.

No recent ThinkPad, apart from some high-end G41 units, has the option of upgrading a GPU. As FredGarvin said, it can't be done without replacing the system board.
