Can I upgrade graphics card of my Laptop?

Hi folks,
I want to know whether I can upgrade graphics card of my laptop.
Now a days most of the high end games are not
working in my laptop and I'm pretty disappointed.
Please let me know whether I can do that. My laptop model is
HP Pavillion DV5 1106AX.

Hi:
Unfortunately in most of today's notebooks (including yours), the graphics cannot be upgraded.
I looked at the service manual for your notebook, and there aren't even any other motherboards with better graphics available.
You can try the latest drivers from AMD to see if that helps, any but you can't do anything with the hardware.

    Hi:
    Graphics adapters cannot be upgraded simply. 
    You would need to replace the motherboard with one that would have better graphics (if one exists for your model).
    This would cost as much as buying a new notebook, so it is probably not a good idea to undertake such an endeavor.

  • Upgrading Graphics Card on T400 Laptop?

    Hi,
    I'm just wondering if it is possible to upgrade the Graphics Card on my T400 Laptop. I opened up Device Manager, went to Display Adapters, and it's a pretty weak (so I hear) Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family. I would like to upgrade this, because of many different reasons. (One of which includes sometimes having my computer "black out" for a second, then say that some sort of display thing has failed but recovered, and images/videos loading slow, etc..., as well as the main problem of whenever I load something that is graphics heavy, whether it be some imaging assignment or a video game, I hear my computer working extra-hard and a "clicking" noise comes from my computer I think, and I feel like it's because my graphics card is not "good" enough, and I might as well upgrade it if possible).
    So yeah, I was just wondering if it is possible to upgrade the Graphics Card on my T400 Lenovo Laptop, and where to buy a new one (if possible).
    Thanks!

    there's no "graphics card", per se, in your machine. it's all surface-mount soldered to the planar. even in the case of models that feature switchable graphics, the discrete gpu is soldered (vs socketed) to the planar. so, there's no upgrading that way, sorry.
    regards.

  • Can I upgrade my (Graphics Card) on my laptop?

    Hello can my (Graphics Card) on my laptop be upgraded 
    this is mine  http://gyazo.com/e10f4147557ec792856f20c0e215e553

    Hi:
    There are no graphics 'cards' in your notebook.  The graphics is part of the motherboard and cannot be upgraded or replaced without replacing the entire motherboard with a supported one listed in the service manual for your model--assuming one has better graphics.
    Replacing the motherboard would cost you about as much as buying a new notebook with better graphics.

  • Can i upgrade my cq 42 227tu laptop graphic card

    i have compaq presario cq 42 227tu notebook , and i want to install graphic card on my laptop . so its possible or not please reply with all technical specification.

    Assume your version has intel intergrated graphics, no upgrade is possible to the motherboard.
    Only option would be finding another better spec motherboard from HP/Compaq range that may fit your notebook chassis.
    Balanced on cost & probably minimal gain a newer machine is best option really.

    Hi,
    What is your G6 ? G6 is a series of many models/laptops and normally we can't upgrade video card on 99.5% of them. Not just G6 series, other laptops from HP and other vendors as well. We can only upgrade video card on some REAL games and work station class machines.

  • What upgrade graphic card do i need for a early 2008 mac pro

    I have a early 2008 Mac Pro.  ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT 256 MB is what i have now.  What is a good upgrade graphic card to get.

    The GTX 780 6GB runs fine on the dual PCIe internal power cables -- as does the GTX 680 and Radeon HD 7950. The same can't be said of the GTX TITAN or GTX 780 Ti or Radeon R9 280X -- all of which require an auxiliary power feed to avoid a nasty power down of your tower at the worst moment when too much wattage is demanded of the Mac Pro's factory power supply.
    Did I mention that the GTX 780 with 6GB of GDDR5 matches the 6GB of GDDR5 in the TITAN?
    The one fallacy to my 'sweet spot' award has to do with OpenCL. In case you hadn't noticed, the AMD Radeon GPUs smoked the NVIDIA GeForce GPUs running Photoshop's OpenCL accelerated Iris Blur filter and rendering LuxMark's OpenCL accelerated Room scene.
    - http://www.barefeats.com
    So depends on budget, whether you want a PC card for less but no "early EFI boot screen" prior to drivers loading, and what apps and needs you have.
    The one thing for sure is that 2600XT should have been retired ages ago and even more so with 10.8.3 and above, it could be trouble or just... PITA/POS.

  • Upgrading graphic card on HP DC 8300 CMT

    Dear HP,
    I try to upgrade graphic card, on HP DC 8300 CMT (Intel® Core™ i7-3770 Processor, Intel HD Graphics 4000 )
    with Nvidia Asus GeForce GTX 650 Ti.
    As stock power supply doesnt meet requirements, I installed an additional  FSP Group Booster X5 450W.
    Once I turn PC on, it reboots 3 times, and eventually it continues to use onboard graphic and windows 7 loads as usual .
    like if new graphic card is not present. (not detected by windows)
    Bios version is latest and particular option  for disableing integrated graphic is grayed out- not accessible.
    Is there any explanation why this happens ?
    On DC 8100 sff It automaticaly disabled onboard graphic, altough it was low consumption Radeon HD 7750 Low Profile card, and there was no any problem.
    Regards.

  • Adding dedicated graphic card to my laptop

    I have I5 core E5-571P-59QA laptop, and I have intel HD 4000 family integrated graphic cards. Is it possible to add dedicated graphic card to my laptop? Intel HD 4000 is decent enough but I want to play more graphically intense games .

    to my knowledge the answer would be "no" to an upgrade to graphics as the laptop is not designed for that, it uses integrated Intel HD-4400 graphics which are decent for basic gaming.
