Make sure you keep your drivers up to date for best performance.|||No you cannot. Learn from this, if you are a gamer, build a desktop!|||No. Video on laptops is heavily integrated into the motherboard. The entire system is build around chipsets, and mobile chipsets are not upgradeable. I don't know what you were looking at, but what you described is not a "video card."|||The answer most likely is no, I did a good search on the laptop and couldn't find much for specs along the lines of the video card. NEVER cut anything off of a computer it is most likely there to serve a very important purpose. Most laptops have onboard video cards therefore you cannot change them.|||Nope you cannot change the video card on that system If you try chopping it off you'll end up with an semi expensive brick.



You can for the interest of gaming trade your laptop for an adequate desktop capable of playing games. Or sell the laptop on ebay and buy or build a gaming machine.

Sub $500 dollar laptops will never be "state of the art" gaming computers.Ever Ever Ever and an added Ever for emphasis.
