Are you prepared to spend over $200?

most laptops you cannot change them - short answer is buy a new laptop/desktop.

why would i have to spend over $200 when i can buy a new video card for it for less then $100?

as apache says: most laptops don't permit you to change the gfx card. you'd have to get a desktop / upgrade your laptop

same as apache and xbonez, if u want to play games and able to upgrade your system later, then buy a desktop computer....

So do i...
my laptop is just for college's daily, when it comes to play a game i trust my desktop computer, it's upgradeable.
Believe me, u need something "bigger" than a laptop to play games....

i understand i need something bigger to play games on but i dont want to play games on my laptop its just for school work.

in that I don't see why you would want to change your video card.

anyways, laptops don't offer you that flexibility. you're stuck with what you got.

So... don't upgrade your laptop...
upgrade your desktop then, or maybe buy a new whole system...

i cant afford to buy a new system cause i just bought this one just over a year ago that is why i just want to put a video card in my laptop and my desktop runs on windows 98 since i had to get it redone and it looks up on me all the time.

maybe u can start saving your money from today...
Maybe u could list the rest of your desktop here....
See if we can make further suggestion for u...

 

[obsidian86]

all that will possibly help your laptop is to max the ram
