upgrading dell inspiron 9300

by hijack masta Nov 23, 2005 12:03PM PST

need help on upgrading my inspiron 9300's video card, memory, hard drive, and battery because I feel that my inspiron 9300 does not have enough performance. Here are my specs: 512 ddr2 memory(i would want to upgrade to 1 gig), 6 cell battery(9 cell is the only upgrade), Ati x300(would want to upgrade to nvidia 6800 go), 60 gig 5400rpm hard drive( would want to upgrade to 80 or 100 gig hard drive).Please tell me the price of them all or seperatly and is all of them upgradeable or not? Or would it be worth it.

RAM= $200
GFX Card= Unknown
Hard drive-100 should be upgradeable. Not really worth upgrades. Don't expect to game on a notebook. THe specs on your notebook are better than many ppl's desktop. Its about the same as my desktop. I can run bf2 at 800x600 everything on including AA and stuff without lagg. So if you don't care about gfx, you could probably do pretty good with the notebook.
