Your laptop was never to be a gamer. It has the Intel HD 3000 graphics that are not discrete. It's UMA which means short graphic rendering in system memory. Discreet, it is what you want and this means that the video card has its own separate memory. That's the best advice that would not force allows you to replace the processor:

Now, the bad news:

1. this Commission is stupid cheap:

http://h20141.www2.HP.com/hpparts/Search_Results.aspx?mscssid=CC60762C26674F61A20C2B270D4FAE57&SearchIn=PartNumber&SearchPN=650800-001

$252... the price of the Exchange is only if you have a defective Board of the same kind to send.

2. I could be off base here, but I think if you are unsure what discrete memory is then trying to replace a motherboard for laptop is probably something you have done hire and figure another $150 it.

3. even the jury of 'best' is always a sort of thing of lower midrange and you are not happy with it after spending $ 400 to upgrade.

Your best thing to do is to sell your laptop and buy a new one.

  • HP Pavilion DV6 3122TX: updated the BIOS F.29 don't switch HP Pavilion DV6 3122TX Ati graphics card

    Hello

    I have HP Pavilion DV6 3122TX and recently I was updating my drivers and software from the HP Web site for my laptop. Everything was done smoothly. As I updated my BIOS, I noticed that I was not able to switch between ATI Radeon 5650 and Intel HD Graphics, then I was also shocked that he wasn't showing a charger plugged into icon too. Although the battery was charging but didn't show any icon for it. I am running Windows 7. After a few days, my battery was went wrong and was not in charge. I bought the new battery from HP Store for my laptop, and then after a few days now he is dying too. My computer laptop suddenly stops on about 30% of battery remaining and battery does not charge. I arranged another charger and plugged, but once more. I gave the laptop to the service center local and got NO from them as well. They couldn't find the problem. After a lot of research and reading messages HP, I finally understood that it was the problem with the BIOS Update and Windows 7. So, out of curiosity, I installed Linux RedHat 6 on windows 7 and everything was OK. But I am a graphic designer for Linux is not a good choice for me. I want to just restore my BIOS in its original version of the default BIOS. Please kindly help me to get my original BIOS. I tried everything on my hand. I also ask HP to the original versions of the drivers like BIOS on its Internet site. My laptop is dying. Please, Experts, I need your kind assisstence. Thanks in advance

    @AbdulRaheem25

    Create the key USB HP Diagnostics of material 3-in-1 PC and boot to it.

    If you updated the BIOS from the old version will still be in a folder of your operating system. Use the method I proposed to get it back.

    If you are unable to read the instructions on the web page of Diagnostics of material for the HP PC, then I suggest that you pay someone to do it and create the flash drive for you.

    Hello

    My wife who is emotionally connected to this laptop needs an upgrade, and even so it is easy and very likely cheaper to buy the new laptop, we should improve as much it can.

    So it has already 8 GB of memory so that part is ok. I'm looking for the Bay for SSD drive as a replacement for the DVD player and last thing upgrade processor (current: i3 - 2310M).

    I've looked everywhere to try to know what other processors that support the model, but I wasn't that successful

    Basically, my question is what processors that support for portable computers and what is top of page processor that I can put in this model of laptop.

    Thanks in advance!

    You will certainly need the maintenance manual:

    Your motherboard only supports dual core, not the Quad core processors and it is the fastest dual core compaptible:

    (Turbo SC up to 3.40 GHz) processor, Intel Core i7 - 2620 M 2.70 GHz (4, 0 - MB L3 cache, dual core, 35 W)

    BTW, do not put an SSD in an optical drive to the hard drive adapter. The interface is slower and the reader will not be bootable. Put the SSD in the hard drive Bay and if you need more storage, then just put a standard mechanical drive into the optical drive adapter. This might work:

  • Desktop HP Pavilion 500-342nem: can I upgrade my desktop computer hp pavilion 500 with the graphics card AMD RX 480 replacing edge R7

    I plan to upgrade my hp pavilion 500-342nem, who was already A7 graphical 240 with the new 480 RX.

    Is it possible to upgrade both the power supply and graphics card?

    There will be no problem of compatibility (PSU Corsair CX 500 questioned?.)

    I heard a lot of chatter on hp restricting the upgrade of their pc.

    The new card will work?

    Any help will be apppreciated.

    @Jeffrin98, welcome to the forum.

    I cannot find the specs of the product to the computer.  So, here's what you need to do.  Press Start + R from the view of the office.  This will open a run dialog box.  In the box labeled type msinfo32 opened.  In the page that opens, check the option titled Mode BIOS.  If he says UEFI motherboard is supported by the video card.  If this isn't the case, you will not be able to move forward.

    The next step is to measure the space where the card will be installed to ensure that it fits.  Measure from the back i/o port to the front of the case.  This will allow you to see if other ingredients will limit the installation.

    The CX500 Corsair power supply (PSU) should work.  However, check how much power requires the video card.  It may be better to buy a PSU with 600W.  High power will be used during peak power needs.  In addition, the card may require additional power connectors.  Also, I recommend a modular power supply.  It allows you to use only the cables that are absolutely necessary, create better air circulation.  It is very important with more powerful graphics cards.  The heat can be much larger.

  • Pavilion dv6: cannot get Windows 10 to work for more than a few days before video fails

    I have a HP Pavilion dv6 with two graphics cards (Mobile Intel (r) Graphics and Raedon (TM) HD 6490 M). I installed the new Windows 10 twice and had a lot of success for about three or four days, then the display did not work. I was able both to restore Windows 7 but I want to take advantage of the free upgrade to Windows 10. Does anyone know of an incompatibility with my HP Pavilion dv6 and 10 Windows?

    It could be windows update tries to give you updates of adapter bad display every time. You have updated automatically whenever you install windows 10? If so, update the manual and ignore all updates that show the AMD, ATI and INTEL. I had the same problem but not with windows 10, I had it on windows 7 and 8.1 with the same computer, I didn't go to http://support.amd.com/en-us/download . Then select the automatically detect and install download and run it. If the screen turns off right after finished installing your drivers, then it must be the war video card causing problems.

    Maybe it's your video drivers are fighting eachother for domination, when the screen messes up, try to hook up an external monitor, if your computer has an additional port. Let us know.

  • HP Pavilion dv6 power supply problem

    I have a Pavilion dv6 for the past three years; It worked perfectly until recently.

    Two months ago he began to take more time for the prosecution, but he continued to work

    fine. The battery always charge at a slower pace, but now there's another more

    serious problem.

    If the battery status says he has some fees (even up to 98%), but as soon as

    I pull the plug on, the computer dies immediately. It does not even

    turn on if I do not connect the charger. If I turn on the computer with charger

    connected, the battery status is always the same. If I leave the computer for a couple

    days without connected charger, the battery loses some (but not charging

    too); This means that the battery itself is not really in a very bad state.

    I suspect some hardware glitch! What could be the problem; y at - it an idea?
