It's a huge increase in price. |
That's why I think you should go the "built-in" route. Get as much 'bang' as you can up front,,,then get the accessory slot video card in the future, if needed.
P.S.--- I don't know much about using the accessory slot for graphics boosting. The shop I worked in didn't carry them (because of the expense). And I never came across a customer that used them. They always said "Hell,,, $1800 for a video card!? Are you crazy? I can buy a whole new laptop for that!"
