No. For some reason it is called "integrated".

integrated graphics are (generally) solderd onto the motherboard. so its litteraly impossible to replace without rediculous work.

but, if money isnt too big of an issue, you could always get some money for your laptop (http://www.gazelle.com/) by trading it in. even if you get only $50, its better than collecting dust :)

and nowadays, more companies are offering gpu upgrades with their laptops too.

Hi Ludakrisss

No it isn't.

Unlike the modern computer where you can simply replace the graphics card already inserted. What you see is what you get with the Laptop.

Most of the time however, with laptops, Memory is significantly linked in with graphics memory. So, If you can afford it, always try upgrading your Random Access Memory, If your computer supports it. Try The Crucial Memory Upgrade Checker To see if your eligible.

Happy Gaming! Regards, [TCL]DellStorm



When adding value gets you worse off than you were before, due to a hidden agenda against you, its time to quit. Then remember why you quit in the first place.

I wish. If that was possible, I would have done it by now.
But it kinda sucks that you cant :/
