Can I update my graphics card?

Dear Sir/Madam,

Is it possible to update my graphics card? I have ENVY of HP dv6-7210ei Notebook PC with GeForce 630 m 2 GB graphics card. Can I move to 660 gtx for example?

Thanks in advance

Hello

As in my previous answer, no you can not even with the portable version. Let's put it this way: basically, you can, with a cost, and I think that this cost can be more expensive than buying a new computer because you have to take into account:

  • New price of the card, and WHERE you can buy it because the laptop cards are not the same office maps. You can't buy any normal store,
  • Need new card system (can be),
  • Need new system of cooling because in general more powerful card pumps out more heat (you want more powerful card don't you?).
  • May need new power supply because your current diet is not suitbale for the card. (I ordered a machine with the Nvidia card and I need to order a 90W charger at the same time, not the normal charger 65W. They rejected just my order.)
  • Cost of the work.
  • Packages a lot, a lot of aspirin.

I hope this helps.

    # You don't have a 'card' in this model. Starting with 2012 models graphics hardware was inseparable and soldered to the logic board. Looks like this:

    Please let me know if I can do it. My laptop model

    Hello:

    Unfortunately in most laptops today (including your own), the graphics may not be upgraded.

    I watched the service manual for your laptop, and there is no similarly to other motherboards with better graphics available.

    You can try the latest drivers from AMD to see if that helps, but you can't do anything with the material.

    Hi mate

    Unfortunately, the graphics card is not editable in most cases, it welded s and he a part of the motherboard.
    But even you would be able to remove the chip on board additional parts like BIOS, etc. would not address the new chip.

    Good bye

  • 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.

    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.

    Hi guys

    I use a laptop 650 hp whose CPU is intel core i3-2328Mand including the clock speed is 2.20 GHz, I have improved the capacity of memory up to 4 GB. The laptop is working perfectely and I can play games like fifa 14 and nba 2 k 13 without any delay. The problem is that I only intel graphics hd 3000 that my graphics card and I was thinking that if I could spend my graphics card up to 1 GB or substitute this for any other graphic card graphics card because I wanted to play some high end games like AC4, GTA 4and stuff like that. My product no. is COS24PA #ACJ, it's a hp650 laptop and I am using windows 7 as my OS

    He can't pass a laptop video card without killing your warranty.

    Most laptops even impossible to pass a video card.  Even if you can most of the companies have a locked bios if the laptop does not accept the new gpu.

    If you really want to make this lucky in brinking unit is 60% or more

    Drunks.

    Hello

    It is not really possible to update the graphics your laptop card - although it is called a 'card' in reality she is physically welded to the motherboard in the same way as a chip.  Even if you could find someone with the necessary skills to replace it, you would also have to re - write the bios to allow the new hardware - BIOS of HP have a 'white list' authorized equipment and anything not on the list will prevent starting laptop.

  • NVIDIA GeForce GT 745A: can I update my graphics card?

    Is it possible to upgrade the mount card Nvidia GeForce GT 745 A to a more appropriate for the game? I unstand there is a lot of work and it is expensive to install a graphics card on a pc AIO. If this isn't the case, anyone know how I can change several of my parameters to the smooth running of the games? Many games will work perfectly (like GTA 5) but some are always choppy and should be tested at low heat (like Forza Hotrizon 3).

    Instead?

    I thank in advance

    Hello

    > I install Nvidia Geforce 6600 go installed instead?

    No, it is certainly not possible.

    Laptop technology is different from the desktop computer and parts are not expandable.
    The GPU (graphics chip) is set on the tray and the replacement or upgrade is not possible, unfortunately.

  • Can I update the graphics card in a Satellite A300 (PSAG4A-02M00M)?

    Thanks in advance for your help :)

    If you're looking for a little bit in the forum, then you would find additional threads regarding this theme.
    And all threads provide the same answer; No it's not possible to upgrade the GPU.
    The GPU is a part of the motherboard and you can't delete it, because it s welded.
