What would be a good Video Graphics Card that would work on a Dell Inspiron 1525?|||Sorry, but you're out of luck. Unless you've ordered the laptop with the card you wanted, you can't swap it out.
Unlike Desktop graphics cards, which are limited only by available slots, Laptop graphics cards are hard to find, and even harder to replace.
Laptop GPUs are not cards at all, but GPU chips soldered into the motherboard, so as are some of the CPUs - meaning you have to melt the metal solder to take them out. This is the way most laptops today are made. You'll have to be a real expert to be able to swap them successfully - even then success isn't 100%. Manufacturers will not take them back for an upgrade. Furthermore, your laptop motherboard chipset will not allow for you to upgrade to a discrete GPU if you ordered it with the integrated card.
Unless you have a laptop with a separate graphics unit or an MXM slot, you won't be able to upgrade/replace it. Check your manual to see if they allow any upgrades
-----------
The only option you have left is to use an Expresscard-adpated graphics unit, but not yet. Maybe in the near future; right now external graphics through Expresscard is in the process of development/release.
There aren't that many for sale yet, but if you're lucky, you can find an ASUS XG Station for sale somewhere (but it won't be cheap considering its around $300 for the dock alone). You just need to have an Expresscard slot.|||well, what u mean by a "good grapihc card"?
there is no way you can get a good graphic w the dell inspirion!

ur video card must be at least 8600gt in order to be ranked as a "good card"
however, the recommend for the good gaming machine is 9800gt.
