Graphics Card Compatibility for Acer Aspire M5-583P-6428 Laptop

Guudek123 · Nov 13, 2013

I would like to upgrade my graphics card so that I can play newer games. I do not know what cards, if any, will work with it. I am looking to buy a graphics card like the GeForce GTX 560M. Any information would be much appreciated.

You can't upgrade the graphics card in a laptop.

Laptops like that one are not designed to have a GPU upgrade. You are stuck with what you have.

Edit: I've read about folks that have added a gfx card via their express card slot on their laptop. I've never done it, so I can't vouch for the results. A lot would depend on the rest of the laptop's components.
