Can satellite L300D - I change the video card?

Hello world

I am not satisfied with the performance of my video card. I have a Satellite L300D, with 2 Ati Radeon X 1250.
Can someone tell me if it is possible to remove these video cards, or remove 1 and put another one in it? Or simply add one and what is a good video card for this laptop?

There is no video card in this model, its fixed on the motherboard. In addition, there is no standard on laptops video card slot, so you would not be able to update anyway. That's because laptops are compact and their cooling system must be custom designed following the power of the VGA chip. The laptop could overheat or cause other problems power if a more powerful graphics card was installed.

So your only option is to sell the laptop and buy a model designed for the game, such as the P300 or P500, or maybe an A300 model with decent dedicated nVidia or ATI graphics.

    Is it compatible with my laptop? Help, please!

    Sorry, but man I must say: forget it.
    You can't go to the graphics chip. It will not work and the BIOS would not accept.

    In your case, you will need to replace the motherboard. :(, cela peut être une affaire très coûteuse...) You know

    I recently received a Portege M700 as a gift and I didn't really like the Intel supplied with the laptop video card. If I want to change the video card to a more adapted to more modern games. Something like an nVidia or ATi video card. I don't think it's possible, but if this is the case, could someone answer?

    Thanks in advance.

    > On the other hand, it is possible to change the whole motherboard, and if it is possible, it would cost a lot?
    The replacement of the motherboard is possible, but it can be replaced with the same card published by Toshiba for this series of laptop.
    In addition, the replacement of the motherboard is a costly business because the mobo is one of the expensive laptop parts

    Hello

    Usually it of not possible to change the GPU on laptop computers.
    The laptop is configured with this graphics card and after replacement, it possible s that the BIOS will not accept this card and laptop does not start.

    But why you want to replace it?

    It seems that there s a new notebook with HD-DVD player and a great graphics card.
    The replacement does not really increase the graphics performance!
    You know, replacement is very risky, and if you open the notebook, you will lose the warranty!
    It is not worth!

  • Impossible to change the video card Intel for radeon

    Model: vpcsc1afm

    I just upgraded to windows 8 and when I go to change my video card 3000 from low power to high power AMD radeon 6470 card Intel video.  I wonder if the problem is that there is not any software for the power switch that changes computer from endurance to speed. Help, please!

    I already tried this twice by making sure that the power switch has been changed for housing suitable for each drivers before installation.  The driver is also enabled in Device Manager.  I had this same problem when I tried on the bata, but I managed to solve the problem by installing the drivers.  When in the bata, it was easy to tell that the pilots were the problem because the power to speed up the computer has crashed and after reinstalling the drivers it worked fine.  Here, when applying power to the speed, nothing happens.

    I checked the manual of the Satellite A350 and I founded the following information:

  • Can satellite L300D - I put the CPU?

    Hello

    I have a L300D with a Sempron 3600 + and I find it to slow down. Is it possible to change the CPU and in this case, what CPU BIOS supports?

    /F

    Hello!

    Theoretically a CPU can be improved but I don't it.

    The point is that you will lose the warranty of your laptop and it s not supported by Toshiba. This means that no one will be able to tell if your cell phone will work stable or not. The BIOS is not designed for other processors, and there is a high risk of compatibility problems.

    If you want to learn more on this subject, see this article from Toshiba of the area of the FAQ:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

    Finally and above all you shouldn't t forget with a CPU upgrade you will notice not all stimulates good performance.
