Upgrading my graphics card?

I have a Gateway E-4500D ( http://reviews.cnet.com/desktops/gateway-e-4500d/4505-3118_7-31546645.html ). I want to update it's graphics card because the one it has in it is not that good. I did upgrade the RAM to 2GB. Do you guys have any suggestions for a video card? I know the system is pretty old so I might need to replace my motherboard and the power supply. Tell me if I need a new part for the video card that you suggested. I don't need a heavy duty one, but just one to make games look a little bit better. Thanks! : D

Can I upgrade my laptop graphics card?

By Nature of Laptop Manufacturing,If it says Integrated Graphics Card then it is embedded or rather Soldered into the motherboard by dafault by the manufacturer so it can not be in any case upgraded as you would require to replace whole motherboard with CPU for chinging or upgrading the GPUBut on paper, Dedicated Graphics Card is exact opposite of Integrated ones and they can be replaced by user of the laptop if requiredBut its not as easy as it seems as many laptop manufacturers dont want you to change their own configuration for whatsoever purposes hence they keep it locked under the hood away from your simple ram and hdd or ssd slots so that to replace you need to go to the company itself or open it up yourselfOther thing is that to replace the card you require a special configuration of slots to achieve proper connection between the card and the motherboardHence it all depends on weather your manufacturers let you openly swift out and in other upgraded cards or notFor Example, I had a HP laptop in 2012 where in i had a dedicated Nvidia GPU but to change it i had to open the whole back and detach my keyboard to reach the GPU and i could have done that but that amount of tidius process i had to undergo to change it made me keep it the sameBut Alienwares and Asus and MSI, make it very easy to open a small cover slot from beneath and change it in few easy stepsSo google your model to Find out how easy it is and do check youtube if anyone has done it already ( it makes it damn easy)Hope it Helps

Should I upgrade my graphics card? My graphics card is a Radeon R7 M360 at DDR3.

Your Radeon R7 M360 with DDR3 is a mobile device graphics adapter, I imagine you have a laptop. While this GPU is a low-end on par with GT740M I am not sure you can replace it, because it depends on the laptop/device maker and the way they implemented the GPU.However, if you are a desktop PC user, with this GPU, then by all means upgrade it if you can afford an upgrade. Radeon RX550 or the better RX560 would be a substantial upgrade for your system.An upgrade will enable higher visual settings for games, and make the experience more enjoyable.

Looking to upgrade my Graphics Card?

Crysis is a very graphics heavy program and requires a lot of power. Luckily you've chosen a quad-core processor which has been shown to be better than the dual-cores for gaming. First you'll have to see if your computer has a high enough watt PSU I would recommend at least a 700 watter, although I like 900 watt +. Also make sure to check what kind of slots you have in your computer. I would assume you have a PCI-express slot. Although you may have an SLI compatible motherboard. If this is so I would go with 2 Nvidia 8800 GTs with 512mb of RAM each or 2 Nvidia GTXs with the 768mb of ram each. Either of these options will run crysis the GTX at better qualities however. If you only have one PCI-e slot I would say that the GTX is your best shot. However don't always expect the BEST quality but it will still be pretty.

So should I upgrade my 1060 graphics card and get a 1070 instead?

Okay so right now I have a EVGA GTX 1060 3GB and I wanna get a EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 8GB because recently, I noticed some of my games are taking a bit to load the textures, and it seems in some of my games my framerate drops, mainly notice this in BO4 and I noticed it says im using more than the recommended VRAM usage, but I notice framerate drops in other games also, and im honestly not too into graphics to where im waiting for the new graphics cards coming out, im still very new to PC and I bought a cheaper card when I built my PC a few months ago, and I just wanna make a slight upgrade, and make my games look a little nicer, and so I don't have to turn down my graphics settings slightly to avoid any framerate drops, I like a good middle ground of looking alright, and running smoothly, I looked at the 1080s, and theyre around $600-$700 for the EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 8GB which is like $200 more than the 1070 I can get, now is there a big enough difference in the 1070 and 1080 to pay the $200? Like I said, I don't care too much for the graphics aspect of my PC games, I play console also, but I do kinda wanna make an upgrade, for a noticeable change in my games graphics/performance, and I would assume the 1070 is a decent middle ground between the two? Just asking for some opinions. Also how do I go about installing my new GPU? like im assuming I just have to open up my PC and install the new one then start it back up? and how should I store my old GPU? Please and thankyou!

Acer Aspire 5920 graphics card upgrade?

I've just bought an acer aspire 5920 laptop..

http://www.play.com/PC/PCs/4-/3477695/-/Product.html

...It's got integrated graphics (Intel media accellorator X3100), but I wanted to know if there was any way of installing a seperate dedicated graphics card.

This model does have versions that have an Nvidia GeForce 8600M GS card - so the motherboard must be able to take a separate card (and the product info says there is a PCI-Express slot).

I guess my question is: Has anyone ever upgraded a Graphics card on this model, or can anyone shed any light on whether it will be possible for me to do it with this model.

Is the intel media accellorator welded to the mboard or something that will make it near impossible to remove to add a separate card?

Thanks in advance for your repiles :-)

Graphics card upgrade for 2011 Macbook pro?

*sigh* I feel your pain. A couple of years ago my iMac's video card failed. Took finding the right place locally to get it properly diagnosed. Long story short, finding a replacement and getting it installed was going to end up costing more than the machine was worth. So I ended up buying another iMac, several years newer than the one that had failed. I think you are actually in the same position. You probably won't be able to find an upgrade that you can put into that Macbook Pro, which is, after all, 7 years old. I would seriously consider looking into either a new Macbook Pro, or a refurbished or used one that's no more than a couple of years old. Check out Apple's website for such machines and also PowerMax.com. They are an authorized reseller of Apple products, really easy to deal with (you can talk to a live person!) and they often have used/refurbished machines.
