Wouldn't bother honestly. Save your money for a new laptop if thats what you;ve got your eyes on.

You're really limited to what you can do with the mobo anyway

I agree. Just save your money for a gaming laptop or even if you feel up to it a gaming computer.

Take that $400 and build yourself a PC.

You're not going to be able to upgrade that laptop to perform well in games. At best, you can 'upgrade' RAM.
