Not many. Laptops heat extreamly fast, so try to keep it elevated for venting.

You really can't get a new video card b/c they are mostly onboard or designed for that MB only.

Just do like my bro did, drop 4g's on an Alienware. His laptop can keep up with my desktop on most things.

set it on a table.. not your lap. and have pepsi bottle caps.. or something prop it up.. if pepsi bottle caps are too ghetto for u.. set two books down on a table.. and put the laptop ontop of it.. so theres free flowing air under the laptop.. this will keep it cool.. the whole idea is to not restrict air flow to the fan..

what model number is your laptop? maybe you can get a docking station.. some docking stations have extra fans and ---- to keep the laptop extra cool.. plus u get the added ---- like more serial ports.. usb.. and an extra cd/floppy drive. and hard drive.. hit up ebay and search for a docking station compatible with ur laptop.
