Can I replace my graphics card in my HP Pavilion G7?

I have a HP Pavilion G7 refurbished laptop Model #B5R83UAR #ABL

It has an Intel i5 - 3210 m cpu @2.5 GHZ

The GPU is a Radeon HD 7670 M.

Is it possible to upgrade the GPU and if necessary the CPU as well?  Thanks in advance.  I am new to the possession of a laptop.

Hello:

The only way to upgrade the video card in a notebook is to completely replace the motherboard with one for your model that may have better graphics.

Normally such a project will cost you more that you paid for the laptop that the motherboard only (assuming that it is available with better graphics) will cost several hundred dollars just for the part.

Here is the link to the service manual for your laptop.  We'll find taken processors supported in Chapter 1, page 1.

It has been that the processors quad core required a different motherboard than the dual core processors, but I see different motherboards listed for quad or dual processors core, only the chart type (Chapter 3).

So, I can't tell you whether or not a QuadCore i7 will work on your laptop.

    Hello

    Thousands of questions and answers are on this forum and the answer is simple for laptops, it is very difficult if not impossible to update the video cards (except some models). In this case, the answer is no, you need new card mother, new system of cooling... and the cost can be more expensive to purchase a new machine.

  • Can I replace the graphics card on Tecra M2?

    I have a Tecra M2 and the display shows verticle lines across the entire screen. These lines also appear when plugged upward on a normal screen.
    I checked Device Manager and it says that the nvidia card "cannot start." The problems had me uninstall and won't reinstall, no luck.
    Next option is to unplug and then plug back in, but is it possible? If it is separate would rather just replace the card. Thanks for any help.

    From your description of the error, this really sounds like a malfunction of the GPU (graphics processing unit).
    Unfortunately, it is a serious offense and if a replacement of material you will not be able to fix this :(

    It is a case value because you can not only replace the graphics card. You need to replace the whole motherboard because the GPU is soldered on the Board and cannot be removed easily.

    There is nothing to my buddy.
    Seems that you need to contact a support technician.

    Good luck

  • Can I replace the graphics card on Satellite Pro A100

    Hi all

    Just a quick question about the graphics card in my Satellite pro a100 computer laptop. I heard different stories about this.

    The ATI RAdeon Mobility x 1400 card can be replaced on this laptop. If so how easy it is to do and how I could tell which cards would be compatible?

    Thank you

    MAcca.

    You cannot remove, replace or update the graphics card.
    The graphics chip is attached to the motherboard and it of not possible to remove it.
    In addition, the motherboard is compatible only with the current graphics chip.

  • Can I replace my graphics card?

    I have a HP Pavilion dv7 - 4177ca laptop running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.

    It has an Intel Core i7 clocked at 1.6 GHz (with mode to 2.8 Ghz)

    It has 6 GB of DDR3 RAM and the GPU is ATI Radeon HD 5650 with 1 GB of dedicated RAM.

    The laptop has a switchable graphics, so it automaatically switches between the ATI and the integrated graphics card. I was wondering if I can replace the HD 5650 with a more powerful GPU but still maintain my laptop switchable graphics functionality. I know HP locks all of their BIOS, so it is not possible to tweak their (I can't overclock my laptop), so I wanted to know if I can replace my HD 5650 with something else and still have switchable graphics and no problem. Thank you.

    Yes, it can;

    Here is the link to the service manual. Supported motherboards with graphics, solutions are listed in Chapter 3.

    The problem is not perhaps not in cost, but availability.

  • Can I replace the graphics card on my laptop?

    I have a HP Pavilion g7-1167 dx notebook and I use a Radeon HD 4250 graphics card and I wanted to reduce the delay in my games. So it is possible, and if so the series Radeon HD 6900 will be compatible.

    No, the graphics chip is integrated, its not expandable.

    Make sure that you have updated drivers from HP support, and no where else

    Its only on a desktop PC that the chart can be changed

  • Can I update my graphics card on my hp Pavilion 15

    How about 15-n211dx product?  For graphic video, it has an AMD Radeon HD of G Discrete-Class 7600 graphics and upward at 2147MB total graphics memory, but my son now uses for some games online (csgo) and it's lag.  I was wondering if I can get just a better graphics card to help him perform better.

    Mass_Woody

    Sorry, but laptops do not use replaceable graphics "card"; Instead, they come or with graphical modules that plug into the motherboard, chipsets which are soldered to the motherboard.

    The first CAN be replaced, but is a function of HP repair depot, it was almost disassemble the whole laptop and then acquire HP graphic special modules only.

    So basically, the answer is no.
