• Pavilion n201ax: upgrading the GPU, the CPU and the RAM of my laptop n201ax

  Maybe it's a very long post, but please answer because I really need answers to each of these questions and I really want to upgrade my laptop to the best configuration, if I CAN.

  Let me make this clear first.

  * In the next contained the words 'this portable' always refers to Hp Pavilion 15-n201ax *.
  Good then everything first I read somewhere that the maximum Ram of this laptop can be expanded up to 16 GB, but i came up with this link here-

  http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/hardware-upgrades-replacements/I-would-like-to-upgrade-memory-of-my-lap...

  And then I came to know that it can only be upgraded to 12 GB page chapter 1 Description this Guide - #2

  http://h10032.www1.HP.com/CTG/manual/c04438537.PDF

  First of all I would like to ask, is that,

  1. can I buy a RAM of any brand but the same 1600 mhz clock speed ofc IE?, then can I go to the GSkill 1600 Mhz DDR3 4 GB of ram?

  2. the size matter for respective locations? or I can install the 8 GB and 4 GB of ram in any other slots?

  So this was all about the RAM

  But I need to know if I can change the discrete GPU and the APU of this laptop

  3 and if yes - which are compatible mobile GPU that I can install by removing the previous one ie AMD 8600 M (for example graphics R9, R7 and R5 for laptop)

  4 and who are the compatible APU I can install by removing the APU previous IE AMD APU A10 - 4655 M (for example the AMD FX APU for laptops)

  5. If I can upgrade the GPU and APU both please tell makes compatibility issues? as only a specific GPU can work with a specific APU IE as in this laptop AMD APU A10 - 4655M + AMD 8600 M GPU.

  Please help me, please.

  Thanks in advance.

  Pavilion 15-n201ax?

  We may need to refer to the owner's manual here:

  Your repair manuals

  Officially, it supports only 12 concerts. Your model has a single module of 8 GB if you have an open slot. Unofficially, users here can have reported that add another 8 GB for a total of 16 concerts will work fine. It's something you take the risk of making but it is not official.

  The part numbers for the appropriate memory are listed on page 42. You must DDR3L-1600 SO-DIMM.

  If you want to go formal, the 4 GB module is: 691740-001

  Is this on amazon.com:

  http://www.Amazon.com/HP-691740-001-1600MHz-PC3L-12800-memory/DP/B00CI08FX4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&QID=1437948185&SR=8-1&keywords=691740-001

  You just leave the concert 8 where it is and add the new memory into the open slot.

  On your laptop model, the GPU/APU is soldered to the motherboard. In order to make any upgrade, you will need to buy a new motherboard. You have an idea together wrong GPU/APU can be removed and replaced and this is incorrect. The term APU refers to a processor that has integrated video, so the whole issue on the compatibility between the GPU and APU just missing the mark. On some systems, the GPU/APU is socketed and can be replaced which is used to replace/upgrade the processor and the video function but as stated above, on your this involves pulling and replacing the entire motherboard.

  There is available a little better/graphics processor using AMD A10 - 5745M 8670 M (2.9 GHz/2.1 GHz, 2 GB L2, 1333 MHz DDR3L Quad 25W) for use with Standard Windows. The part of the motherboard is 734824-501

  HP does not store the Council, but I found this line:

  http://www.discounteddealz.com/product.asp?Itemid=327740&gclid=CO78y6rn-cYCFQmCaQodOP0GLQ

  Never heard of this seller and can not be a guarantor, but the price is very reasonable for this Council. I was expecting to be a little more makes me wonder about this seller a little. I would advise to keep what you have. He is very strong for AMD and the upgrade to the Commission on the A10-5745 will result in only a very small increase in performance to a very high cost in money and efforts.

• Can satellite M40-231 - I upgrade the GPU (graphics card)?

  Hi all

  My Satellite M40-231 has an ATI Mobility Radeon X 600 SE and I would like to upgrade to deal with the demands of today's games, but also a new HARD drive, but the latter, I think that I can go as far as the 120 GB HARD drive.

  SUGESTIONS are welcome.

  TKS

  Sorry, buddy, but this is not possible!
  There are several discussions about upgrading the GPU on mobile phones and all the threads said the same thing that's not possible.

  The point is that most graphic cards chips are outside the motherboard and cannot be deleted.
  You must understand that technology for portable computers is not the same thing as the technology of desktop PCs and more upgrades are not possible.

  Which could be upgraded are the memory modules and HARD drive.

  See you soon

• problems upgrading the GPU from nvidia 660 m at the start, 980 m-8 beep error code

  Alienware m17x R4

  Intel i7-3740QM CPU @2. 70 GHz (overclocked 3.49 GHz)

  32 GB memory corsair vengeance 4x8Go

  run GPU Nvidia Geforce GTX 660 m

  Ive been upgraded my laptop and updated my ram and hard drives, and bought a Nvidia Geforce GTX 980 m update kit. I know not how to change video and easily installed maps (grounding prevent me electrostatic and protect the card). passed to the map intel before the upgrade and after the first device manager start that he read as standard VGA adapter and its status is that it wouldn't start. I updated my bios and updated the driver for the pilot to 980 m from nvidia and changed the graphics card to the new by using the fn + f7 command and rebooted my computer.

  at the start he gave me a blank screen and the 8 beep error code. He looked up and I think it's a faulty card or bad memory on the card. contacted eurocom support and they think that there's a way to get it to work but I'm not so sure. It's the weekend, so they don't come back to me until Monday. someone at - it experience with this or know what I can do now? I am currently back on my card to 660 m.

  Everything you did before but not FN + F7 at the end. However, I'd install drivers Nvidia from Dell this time. The last Dell has is either 347.52 (WHQL-quality; you can get this driver from the Alienware support page 13/15/17 R2 on the Dell support site) or 350,12 (beta for Dell). There are also 347.90, but it is quite difficult to find a complete driver for this driver.

  When you uninstall the drivers of the GPU, use DDU. It's just a more sure way to uninstall the drivers.

• HP Envy 750-150: I can upgrade the GPU?

  Hey. I was wondering if it would be possible to upgrade my GPU a Nvidia Geforce GTX 960 980 on the HP Envy, as im currently saving up for a GTX 980 and im wondering if I should. Any answer would be useful.

  The differences areillustrated here.  Secure boot must be disabled, as will detect a different material. The GTX960 probably comes with the PSU 500W PSU, so you OK because it shows a configuration with the GTX980Ti file.

• Is satellite C650-1CP - possible to upgrade the GPU?

  Hello

  I just wanted to ask a question about my graphics card with respect to the games.

  I discovered recently that the integrated graphics chips are not only good for gaming so I did a bit of reading on the subject and found something to say that there is a possibility that you can send the laptop to the manufacturer and buying a chip upgrade or pay for a better installed.

  Is this possible? and if this is the case, what kind of price would you watch. My laptop is a C650-1CP as I said in the title.

  Thank you

  Hello

  No, it is certainly not possible.
  There are many discussions on this topic and GPU (graphics card) update is definitely NOT possible.

  Please check this doc from Toshiba:

• How to change the GPU for notebook Alienware?

  I bought an Alienware Laptop since 12/2014. It has the Nvidia GTX860m 2 GB. Can I change? Because now it looks a little too old for the newest games.

  Any updates for your laptop is not void the warranty. It just will not be covered by the warranty.

  Here's the Alienware tested GPU you can upgrade.

  • GTX 770 m
  • GTX 780 m
  • R9 m290x
  • GTX 880 m

  Here are some community tested GPU that requires more than a simple swap-and-play.

  • GTX 970 m
  • GTX 980 m

  I suggest go at notebookreview forum if you are considering getting a series of 900 m GTX GPU. The full manual, found on the Dell support site, gives you detailed instructions on concealment and re-Assembly of the laptop. No need to contact Dell.

• Can satellite A200 (PSAFCA) - I upgrade the GPU?

  Hello

  I have a Satellite A200. PSAFCA-01K00J. It is the system bought in Australia around mid-2007. There are currently a processor Nvidia GeForce Go 7300 intslalled on the system graphics.

  Preliminary investigation which leads me to believe, there are limited options of upgrade for the laptop, but there seems to be a number of anomalies to lead me to think the upgrade may be at hand. For example.

  In my user manual, he described my gpu in the following way:

  model lnVidia GeForce Go 7300:
  128 MB external VGA DDR2 RAM (depending on the model you have purchased).

  The external Word I think fact now refers to the interface type. As some A200 Intel 258 MB marked as integrated Gpu (and I'm the average current integrated without possibility of upgrade). This offers as well the nVidia is not integrated and leads me to believe it's connection MXM and so editable / extensible.

  Another thing to back up this idea is software Nvidia located in the control panel includes a section on system information and she calls the PCI express X 16 bus. If I'm not mistaken refers to a normal PCIe - certainly editable location. However being a laptop they might have it Mobile and so Mobile PCI Express Module and I'm back to MXM with ability to upgrade.

  This is confirmed if he please, and are there toshiba fans that could lead me to a card apropriate - perhaps off the coast of the Nvidia tray or even a chance for a toshiba laptop later. at least 256 MB or better 512.

  I have ike using this laptop, never had a problem. just be to hang out, and given that I would not buy a new car every time that I ran out of gas, I don't want to buy a new computer, when I am more then happy with the one I have for all other functions.

  Thank you

  Hello!

  In my opinion it's not possible to change the graphics card. As far as I know the graphics chip is soldered on the motherboard.

  In addition, if the graphics card would be exchangeable I think than the motherboard or BIOS will not support the new graphics card. The point is that laptops are not favourable so upgrade as a desktop PC.

  Check this Toshiba document and think about it:

  Any suggestion would be appreciated on all! (I'm passionate about new technology! and settle all myself)

  Rall fo thanks for your help!

  No mate problem!

  A new processor, power SUPPLY and a graphics card means that, probably, a new decent machine might be a better option. Take a look on ebay, I suggest that a few Intel Core i5 - 750 can be a very good machine, because it's a pure core quad and beats even a core i7 mobile Processor...

  Permanent, no. Difficulty, Yes, maybe. The best is to send not only the video chip to one of the best sellers on eBay who will be actually rebuild the motherboard and redistribution. A new laptop is out of the question? A good state of repair can be as low as $60 if you may remove the motherboard and send it just for repair.

  Hello

  Resaerch very well. A few things you need to check

  physical location in your computer, is the new spread of map (width, length)

  (b) power supply (your machine a 600W PSU, should be ok for 2 cards listed).

  (c) to ensure that BIOS supported new card.

  Please also see the following topic:

• HP ENVY h8-1409: upgrade the GPU card mother IPMMB-FM (Formosa)

  I currently have a ti 750 EVGA installed without any problem with this motherboard. The BIOS on this forum is listed as UEFI with a version of 8.21 FRIEND whose date of 21/10/2014.

  I'll be able to spend to the 10xx GTX as a 1060 series, or maybe a RX 480 without any obsolete BIOS problem? I know that some old motherboards from HP could not start even a card GTX series 7xx due to an outdated BIOS that HP did not update.

  Hello

  You said that the jury is listed with FRIEND 8.21. Check that your PC is running FRIEND 8.21?

  You shouldn't have a problem to start the recent graphics cards, if your computer is running a version 8 BIOS. Ensure that the selected card suits and corresponds to the power supply of your PC.
