How I change my graphics card?

I have a MacBook Pro (2010) with an NVIDIA GeForce 320 M 256 MB graphics card and I wanted to get a game that says it's minimum is an Intel HD 4600 or equivalent. I was wondering if my computer meets the requirements, and if it does not, if I can replace my graphics card.

Welcome to Apple assistance related

This graphics card should be enough for the game, then you should give it a try. Apart from this, it is quite difficult (if not impossible) to replace the graphics card on a Mac laptop without having to replace the whole logic board, because they are often welded.

  • How to change the graphics card on the 15 new

    Hello world

    I just got my new alienware 15 and I can't seem to use the nvidia card instead of intel because "fn + f7" no longer exists in this system and some options are provided in the bios.

    Does anyone know how to go the nvidia card in the new system of 15?

    Make sure you have the latest nVidia and Intel drivers installed.  I noticed the same problem on my 15 when I've seen, but resolved as soon as I updated.  I suggest that you install Intel drivers first, and then the nVidia drivers.  So if really don't know the issues, but that's what I did and it works like a charm.

    Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad English

    At first, I must say that your English is very good and understandable.
    Back to your question: update graphic card is not possible. The graphics card is part of the motherboard and cannot be exchanged separately.

    Please note that the portable is not so extensible as on desktop computers. The upgrade can be done with RAM or HARD drive very easy, but not with processor or graphics card.
