Hello,

I have a toshiba dx 730 model PQQ13A-00J005 and i want to change the gt 630m or add a new high end/better graphics card by pci-e maybe?

Thanks in advance,
Miscallious

Well, you'd need access to a mini PCI-E slot, a PSU, the GPU of course.

Would it actually work?
Would it actually work well? Completely unknown.

Or, you could sell that thing and build a proper desktop PC.


What about pcie gpus!!?
 


There is no PCI-e slot.
 


But cpu-z says there is!

 


1. Open it up. Show us a picture of that 'slot'.

2. Find the user manual and service manual. Tell us on what page that slot is depicted.
 


Will open it on the weekend but the manual says that the network card uses pcie

I dont mind sacrificing wifi since its connected through ethernet and i have a usb wifi adapter

That is the protocol.
There is no physical 'slot' for a GPU.

Well, that's a completely different thing.
 


So possible?
