View Full Version : Graphics Upgrade SOlutions xxsunshine 10th July 2006, 12:05 Does anyone know if it is possible and/or how difficult it would be to upgrade a graphics card on a notebook?? I have searched online but don't seem to be able to find any info on them. Not sure if it's possible or not, but thought I would ask as someone here is bound to know! candccom 10th July 2006, 15:27 notebook come with embeded graphic chipset, so i think is quite impossible to upgrade.. xxsunshine 10th July 2006, 15:29 well, some of the notebooks with dedicated graphics are possible to upgrade? I'm not sure, as I said, just curious... candccom 11th July 2006, 12:02 so far dont think so.. but the final answer will be from your notebook manufacturer.. sirius2 8th August 2006, 20:24 Some notebooks have separated graphics card- like mobile radeon x300 (with it's own 128 megs of memmory, or so) and higher series- x600, x700, and those "four-digits-in-name" ones. Then You can replace such graphics card, but I'm pretty sure, that it is still tough process. Those who has integrated graphics (like all intel stuff- i950GM, i945GM, i915, and so on, and so on) and INTEGRATED, and not changable. Even if destroyed, rather whole motherboard is replaced in service, than new chip applied.

How to save the enviroment? candccom 17th October 2006, 13:12 I think these day will come very soon, but not because of the environment issue, but the compatitiveness.. mccm 18th October 2006, 07:09 I think these day will come very soon, but not because of the environment issue, but the compatitiveness.. I agree with u,once microsoft release the US100 laptop to the mass market,will see alot of upgrade demand.
