Satellite L30 - question video card update

Hey guys!

I have a Toshiba Satellite L30-113 and I am very happy with the way it looks and works. I managed to update the 3 GB RAM, the processor is in a pretty good shape, although it is only 1.7 GHz.

Now, my only problem is that the video card, the laptop is equipped with (ATI Radeon XPRESS 200 M) is quite low. You have an idea on which other (preferably better) video cards is compatible with the Satellite L30 - 113 default installation?

Thank you!

Speaking of GPU Generly cannot be upgraded on laptops. Due to the specific design and cooling with limited cooling performance, it cannot be done.

    Hello

    You want to upgrade the graphics card?
    Sorry mate; It is not possible.

    The GPU is more often soldered to the motherboard. It is not possible at this level like a GPU from office for example.

  • Pavilion 9220y video card update

    Hello
    I was hoping that an expert can help me upgrade/configure a new video card for a desktop HP Pavilion Elite 9220y.

    I have done the research to shed light on the issue, but would REALLY appreciate some help!

    So just that the machine has now integrated ATI Radeon HD 4350 - that it comes with, who I am is of course very well for the casual user, but I want a massive update to play new games.  Unfortunately, I'm stuck with this computer, so I can't build a new machine custom, so I just want to update my video card today... the rest of the system works very well if.

    My questions are:

    • Can I upgrade the video card on this specific computer HP Pavillion 9220y?
    • I read that I can replace the card using the PCIex16 slot? but is this slot PCI-E 1.0 or 2.0?  I could not find in the sheets...
    • If so, what kind of cards are compatible with it and are good for games?
    • I buy a power supply additionanl to run the additional power demand?  If so, what is a good thing that will work for the 9220y? http://www.Newegg.com/store/subcategory.aspx?subcategory=58&name=power-supplies

    It's just a lot to wrap around my head and I want to make sure I go about it the right way, before you update or buy anything!
    Again, any help would be appreciated more

    Hi Steve,.

    1. Yes, you can install a video card in your PC.

    2. the discrete graphics card will move into the slot PCI-E x 16.  HP is not posting slot PCI-E card, but a video designed to the 2.0 PCI card will normally be backward compatible with the PCI 1.x ports.

    3 game cards have different levels of performance and your choice will depend on the game being used and set of parameters. Check out forum and the game manufacturer's web site and see what others are using.

    4. more decent video cards will require a bigger power supply.  The p9220y has only a 300 Watt power supply.

    Here are the specifications of the motherboardfor the p9220y. Since most of the better video cards are wider than normal single slot card, then adjacent locations on the PCI-E x 16 slot must be vacant.

    I make a few suggestions, but I'm really in the dark about your playing conditions.

    TheCorsair CX600should have enough power for most video cards.

    TheNVIDIA GTX 550 TIshould have enough power for most video games with the higher settings. Screen resolution is a factor of performance.

    You need to open your PC and measure the physical dimensions of your diet.  Here is a list of the things to consider:

    1. Specifications
    2. Total power - important
    3. amperage 12 + v - important
    4. Modular - is not required, but I like the flexibility
    5. Warranty
    6. I7 and SLI ready
    7. Efficiency rating
    8. Cost
    9. The physical size - standard ATX PSU is 5.5 "by 5.9" by 3.4 "give or take a few tenths
    10. Only one + 12 volt rail is a better choice.

    www.Newegg.com has many choices of power supplies.  Corsair, OCZ, Rosewill, Thermaltake...

    Review the performance of NVIDIA specifications. Look at the specifications of strip memory bandwidth and level of DirectX support.

The office itself is really great, but I'm not able to run PC games so intended to update my video card. For this, I needed food uprage. It has 250 W.

    So my question is, can I LEVEL MY POWER SUPPLY UNIT? and if I can, that one you offer me to buy. Please give me the link. I was looking for a 600 and more watt power supply.

    Nassik19,

    Thank you for coming on the user forums. Given the simple request of a PSU 600 + W, here are some, with comments.

    When you look at these, please look at the pictures of the label of power amps for the + 12V / real sustained power.

  • Satellite P30-145: video card driver

    Toshiba graphics drivers are not similar with the original graphic drivers from manufacturers.
    Original graphics drivers are designed for the use of desktop not laptop. Laptop graphics driver supports protection against overheating and control the performance of the graphics chip. If the temperature rises the driver decreases the performance of the graphics card.
    It is very important because mobile phones have no own graphics card cooling module.

    If you will not find a more recent version of the graphics driver Toshiba or the game will not be able to execute on the graphics driver installed, then you can try the other drivers such as Omega drivers. But note; You can use it at your own risk.

    Hello

    I totally agree with the Akuma.
    Upgrading the graphics card is not possible on laptops.
    As mentioned, the motherboards of notebook does not support a standard graphic slot.

    Of course, nVidia is developing a new standard called MXM but as far as I know it s not available on your Sam 1900.

    Native video card ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2600 512 MB does not.
    Can I replace it with another video card?

    What do you mean by video card recovery?
    Do you mean replacement/upgrade graphics card up-to-date?

    The notebooks of the graphics chip cannot be upgraded or replaced. It s mostly a part of the motherboard and if something goes wrong with the graph of the chip you have to replace the motherboard.

  • HP 625 video card update

    Hello

    I would like to know if I can update/change my video card on my HP 625 model

    Hello:

    The video chip is part of the motherboard and the entire motherboard must be replaced by another which has better graphics (if any).

    The attendant costs for doing such a thing would exceed the cost of buying a new laptop with the desired video solution.

  • Aspire the XC-605 video card update

    Hi all

    I recently bought an Aspire XC-605 and I need help, so I hope you guys can help out me. It comes with an integrated only video card. I wanted to update the graphs so I bought a card Asus HD 6450 Silent PCIe. I installed the card and booted the computer and nothing appears on the screen any card (Asus or integrated) I plug the HDMI cable.

    Do not know how to proceed at this point. I went into the BIOS to see if I could disable the onboard graphics, but there is no other choice. I think that maybe it's a power issue? I don't know anything about power supplies, but certainly one that comes with the system is not standard size.

    Can someone point me in the right direction?

    Thanks for your help!

    Hi pchandra

    The video card you have is a low power card - it needs about 75 watts and draws its power from the PCIe slot, so your XC-605 feeding should be enough.

    There may be a problem with the graphics card. I suggest to try the card in another PC to rule out a problem with it. If it does not work in the second PC, the card will be replaced.

    If there is no setting in the BIOS, it adjusts automatically, usually the output, so if you insert a card, it will default to it. Similarly, if you delete it, it should default to the integrated graphics card.

    Try the card in another PC and let us know how you get on...

  • HP Touchsmart 520-1070 video card update

    I have a HP Touchsmart 520-1070 with an AMD RADEON HD 6450 A graphics card. I'm not too good with technical stuff, and when I bought this PC I was told that it would be perfectly fine any game. However, when I tried to download some of the popular games and play them on my PC as it is today, with the THIEF, what I discovered was that this computer was great, except that a single card video. I did some research and found that I needed  graphics AMD Radeon HD series R9 to run games perfectly. Now, my question is, can I switch to one of these video cards AMD Radeon HD series R9 with my PC?

    Thank you.

    What I'm saying is, you can't buy a standard PCI Express x 16 video card, for example, the R9 from AMD.  It should be a card MXM Mobile, as stated in my previous post.  I wasn't able to find a map that shows the specifications shown, however.  They are not readily available.  To be honest, I'm not sure that an upgrade would allow you to play the games you mentioned.

  • Compaq presario cq5320f video card update

    There is really no quality maps of game on the market for your computer's power supply. 250 watt power supply is too low for this kind of maps and will need to be replaced if you want use more add-in PCIe x 16 graphics cards.
