Heres a question.

If your laptop plays lots of games at high graphics
AND your willing to fork over $300 for about.... 2-5fps in increased performance
why don't you hold onto that hard earned cash until you can afford a desktop?
Because i can guarantee you moving from an 8600gs to a 9500gs is not worth the cash outlay for an mxm card.

Not to mention that these things are difficult to find and you may run into compatibility issues.

Honestly if you sold that laptop, and kept the cash you were going to invest in a graphics card, and bought a NEW laptop, you would get more performance.
