How do I know if I am buying the right graphics card for a laptop? ?

Answer 1

Only high-end notebooks have MXM graphics cards that can be removed and upgraded if supported by the MB and BIOS   (i.e., Alienware).

To see if you have a notebook with a MXM card look here for your model:

Here is a chart in order of performance and benchmarks for notebook graphics cards.

If you want to game then get a graphics card that is either class 1, class 2, or class 3. lower classes are integrated and not suitable for gaming.
