hd 8970m upgrade to gtx 880m?

[Joniostis]

Hello,

simple question, is it worth upgrading my 8970m in my laptop to a gtx 880m.
I could buy a 880m for around 600 euro.
And i could sell my 8970m for around 300 or something.

Before you ask; YES, my laptop is in fact upgradable, it's a Clevo p150sm

Other Specs:

i7 4700mq
16gb 1600mhz RAM
750gb SSD
1080p screen (60hz)
Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6235 wifi card
...

Thanks

Joni

$300 would be a lot of money spent for more fps since the 8970 already handles everything fine. http://www.notebookcheck.net/Computer-Games-on-Laptop-Graphic-Cards.13849.0.html

Depends on you. The gtx 880m will be able to handle all the games with ease but so does you current one but not as well as the 880. It will depend on if you want to play everything at ultra then go for it. Otherwise stick with the current one and wait for the maxwell versions of the 880m
