The upgrade of the graphics capabilities of laptop HP Compaq 6735 s

I recently bought a 6735 s and I am interested in the possibility of improving the graphics capabilities of the machine.

The chipset motherboard for this model is the ATI 780 G (http://www.amd.com/us-en/0, 3715_15532_15533, 00.html #780 G).

A characteristic of this chipset, it supports "ATI Hybrid Graphics", allowing thus the 3200 integrated core work in conjunction with an extra card to 3400 dedicated.

This feature is also described here:-http://www.notebookcheck.net/ATI-Radeon-HD-3200.9591.0.html

I have a couple of requests related to this: -.

(1) is this laptop provides plenty of internal space & all the connections needed to add a card to Radeon 3400 series?

(2) the extension of the ATI AXIOM interface or the more generic is MXM?

(3) where would I go to get such a card?

(4) the installation of such a card cancels my manufacturer's warranty 1 year? (according to my own research, this seems almost certainly yes)

See you soon,.

Here is a link to the bible MXM. Your laptop is not a MXM and as much as I know there no graphical upgrade:

Here is your service manual which shows the bowels in their entirety:

Laptops don't usually not all the features of the chipset office corresponding, and only implement a few paltry laptops have upgradeable graphics. Usually, you can buy a laptop with graphics that you want to have for the life of the laptop, not with the idea of adding something better, once you get it.

The feature you're talking about is power Xpress and it allows you to move from the integrated graphics to a video card dedicated to the fly without a reboot, but it works in Vista, as you noted. It is one of the characteristics of the Centrino 2 platform, or at least the possibility to implement is. Fujitsu has just released computers laptops thanks to this feature (very expensive) and others are about to do, but I do not think that HP released a still.

nVidia also has a similar option and he was released at least a Sony Vaio, I think.

Here's the top of the line laptops and dual video option must be built the factory. It is not a feature added.

    Mod edit: System model added to the front of the subject line to improve visibility / clarity.

    the short answer is no. Only laptops with a removable graphics card can be improved, and your system is is not these slot machines.

    Hi, lawless,

    Looks like it's not. (HMM) hardware maintenance manual says about p.82 the microprocessor and the GPU is soldered to the system board. It is in the section on replacing the system board.

    Hello

    Graphics cards are built into the motherboard or welded on the map. No way you're good to upgrade. It is best to go ask that with your areas of interest.
    Better, you opt for laptop with the best record.
    Go to hpshopping.ca and filter requirements & try.

    Is it possible to upgrade the graphics for game purposes?

    Thank you very much

    Hello:

    Your model laptop does not come with a graphics "card".

    Most laptops today have soldered to the motherboard as well as circuitry (GPU) graphics processing unit.

    In other words, it cannot be upgraded or replaced.

    To improve the graphics of your laptop, a full motherboard replacement will have to be done and it would cost as much buying a new laptop with the graphic solution you are looking for.

  • Satellite L300 - 1 5 - I want to upgrade the graphics card

    Hello

    I was wondering if anyone could tell me if the Satellite L300 - 1 5 (short model: PSLB8E) has an MXM slot?

    I want to try to improve the graphics capabilities of it.

    Now, I know that the upgrade of the integrated graphics card is impossible, but I read somewhere that nVidia and a selection of manufacturers have worked on getting MXM in laptops supported features PCI Express and Toshiba have been listed as working with them. I have the Intel GMA 4500 M and its obviously not built for the games and I really want to play Modern Warfare 2, but cannot guarantee of forking out for a new laptop just for 1 game

    Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks

    Hey Buddy,

    I think that an upgrade isn't possible. The graphics card is soldered/fixed on the motherboard and this means that you can t change it. Here you can find more information about this:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB9401AX0001R01.htm

    I can understand you but Satellite L300 isn't designed for games. I use my Satellite L300 for Internet and office and for games, I bought Qosmio F50. :)

  • How can I check the graphic card installed on my hp probook 4530 s

    I want to improve the graphics of my laptop to play games with higher graphics requirements? What should I do?

    Hello

    I hate to rain on your parade, but a laptop is not a desktop PC. With a desktop PC, the upgrade is really quite simple and easy for most people. Buy a suitable video card and maybe a diet to meet the requirements of the th3 video card.

    Upgrading the graphics solution in a laptop is generally not viable because in most cases, you have what you bought and it is not extensible.

    Your HP proBook is a professional laptop and it was designed for productivity software and not game. The chances of your computer laptop, even with switchable graphics (high-performance) is also quite thin, but because it would have been a candidate for gaming laptop.

    There are exotic and costly as the external graphic ViDock of Villagetronics.com solutions and others for laptops, but if not, you have what you bought.

  • Satellite P300 - 19 p - how to improve the graphics for Microsoft FSX?

    Please could someone tell me if and how I can improve the graphics of my laptop when I run Microsoft FSX?
    Of course, I could buy a good laptop with a high-performance graphics card, but is it something I can do to improve the graphics?

    Thank you very much.

    Hi Ben

    First of all, I must say that Flight Simulator X needs a lot of graphics performance and this game is really high system requirements. You need a powerful CPU, graphics card and enough RAM.

    Regarding your question an update of the map for example graph it s is not possible. It s fixed/soldered on the motherboard and there is no Exchange possible on desktop.
    So if you want a laptop that is faster for games, you can buy a new one, like the Qosmio X 500.

    You can only improve performance if you reduce the resolution of the screen or the details of the game.
    Make sure also that if the last page Toshiba display driver is installed.

  • Qosmio G30 - there a way to display the temperature of the graphics card?

    Hello

    I've got Qosmio G30-10B. Anyone know if it is possible to obtain information on the graphics processor (GPU) temperature, unit? It has nVidia Go 7600 graphics card. Unfortunately, the nTune doesn't display the temperature. Any other application that could do the trick?

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Temperature, GPU monitoring tool? hmm I know on some graphics cards nVidia, you can find this information in the properties of the graphics card. But I m not sure if it of possible to see in the properties of the graphics card for laptops.

    On my desktop PC, I have installed applications RivaTuner. This tool is amazing, and you can control the various GPU parameters. But note!
    This tool is can change many settings of GPU and if anyone has any experience can damage the graphics card. So don t change anything if you don't know what you're doing!

    I have a computer laptop g60-635dx. can I upgrade the graphics card on this laptop?

    Hello

    Here are the specs of your machine:

    http://bizsupport1.Austin.HP.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/document.jsp?objectID=c02033074 & lang = to & CC = US & TaskID = 101 & prodSeriesId = 4074269 & prodTypeId = 321957

    He uses: Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 4500 M, which is soldred to the motherboard so practically you can not change because you have to change the motherboard, to buy the new video card, to change the cooling system... all adding up will cost more than a new machine.

  • I have a Pavilion dv6 laptop and I want to upgrade the graphics card

    I'm the product: HP Pavilion dv6t - b 6, 00 CTO Quad Edition Entertainment Notebook PC

    Product number: QJ912AV #ABA

    Operating system: Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit)

    Graphics factory-installed: Radeon HD 6490 m + Intel(r) HD Graphics Family (but I spend the Intel 3000 drivers)

    My graphics were problems since I got my laptop and I didn't realize what a few months after when I did a check on why my graphics running on low FPS. I called customer service and they could not solved the problem, so I started to do the research and updating my drivers for each of them and switching them too. I have finally fixed them and instead to run Minecraft on 22 FPS, I was there at more than 60 FPS.

    Now, this graphics card is good and all, but there are not adapted to the new games (and I've had this laptop 1 year). What don't get me, is why HP installs some old graphics chips in a new laptop. in any case, I want to see what I can put in the new card. I really want to install and Nvidia 650 m, but I don't know because I don't have any information on my motherboard and it is manufactured by HP. Why I want to improve it is because that 1.) This chip sucks and can't play the games of 2005 and more than 2). He cannot run newer games like I'm a player PC of BF3. I get a strong brand of 28 FPS on BF3-ultimate low quality on this game, he reached sometimes 30 but not much. I want this thing to run as good as my game desktop computer that is custom built, so I really want to know what works with this laptop.

    Please help me to know what works so I'll be better satisfied with HP products.

    Read this document. This has been implemented by one of the community experts (erico).

    The answer is usually going to be no upgrade that has been done on the graphics card as this is usually soldered to the motherboard and designed to work with specific chipsets. The fact that this example uses the switchable graphics actually still less likely. I'm sorry.

    PC hardware is changing at a rapid pace, so you get a day probably will be obsolete in a few months if not sooner. I personally ordered a laptop and there was already a new model of the series which has a better processor and graphics card to this topic. Alas, I was outside the return period and could not take advantage of the new model.

    This largely depends on the software used, but cell phones are not usually able to achieve the same performance as a desktop game PC. My laptop performs as well as my office during playback of half-life 2, but there is a big difference when I play Crysis. The experience will depend on how the program is written and how the game engine is optimized. It varies from game to game.

  • HP Elitebook 8760w: I can upgrade the graphics card in my laptop? HP Elitebook 8760w

    Nice day

    My laptop is a number first in every way execpt the graphics card which is obsolete.
    I think it's a waste and the hassle of having to sell it and buy another just to get a better graphics card.

    Is there anyway I can improve my Quardo NVIDIA 4000 M say Nvidia Geforce GTX 950 or upwards?

    Thank you for your time,
    Josef

    Except that... aren't the graphics 'cards' - as those who enter desktop.

    Instead, these are maps graphics - made specially to fit in this laptop.

    Look at the pictures still once, is clearly not the cards, you can buy off the shelf.

    Good luck
