I'm looking to configure one of these for myself. However, my budget is a little limited and so I'm looking to ease off a little on the specs. I know it's fairly easy to upgrade RAM as that's straightforward, but what about upgrading the GPU, say, from the 965M to the 980M somewhere down the line? Also, would the CPU be upgradeable as well? Cheers.
How upgradeable are The 15.6" Defiance II laptops?

Often the advice is to get the best CPU and GPU you can afford because they are not something that you can easily replace but also because it is incredibly inefficient to buy those components twice as they account for the bulk of the cost in a system.
If you were planning to put the machine into a local PC place or send it back in to PCS for upgrades then they can be done but require re soldering in most cases.
I'd advise against it though as its pretty costly.
