AFAIK it's not possible.

Who crossfires in a laptop. The laptop will smoke then

 

[ssuresh83]

why it cant be . this must be a PCI express 2.0

It's not easy replacing the graphics card in a laptop. It's not like you remove the graphics card from its slot and insert a new one as you would do in a desktop. Notebooks usually ship with integrated graphics or less powerful cards as if has to manage the heat as well has have a decent battery life.

If you want a better graphics, it is better to buy a powerful laptop of the shelf and then forget about upgrading the hardware. With laptops you've got to live with what you have... unlike a desktop which has room for playing.

And BTW it is extremely difficult to locate a mobile gpu and it is very expensive, if at all.

I hope this helps.

Next time don't buy a laptop for gaming.

It's always a bad idea

My 5536G, has an ATI Radeon hd 4570 (512 MB) standard

and I confirm this is 4570 not 4750 graphics, perhaps this can be looked into, however your CPU is 2.5GHz
unlike mine as its a 2.1GHz so may not be compatible
