    You can't change the graphic card. BTW.. isn't ~256MB+ enough for you already?

    It's a netbook! The answer is no. It's integrated on the MB. If you need more graphics you'll need to step up to a Laptop...

    For what purpose do you eed 300mb-500MB of video memory? Only massive CAD or 3D projects will require that much, by then your whole computer will be a bottleneck. So there's really no point.

    BTW.. you can overclock the video card, but it won't improve your performance a lot.
