    Hi there,

    I wondered if it were possible to upgrade the GPU on my Aspire 7736G?

    The current GPU is a GeForce G210M and it struggles to play the latest games even windowed mode on 800x600 with everything low!

    If it is possible to upgrade this GPU, what would you recommend I upgrade to?

    Alternativly, is it worth trying out EVGA Precision?

    I just bought SW:TOR and I really want to get started playing it!

    Many thanks and Merry Christmas,

    James

    Not possible. Sorry.

    If you can find a 7738g motherboard I think you can upgrade to that and use a 6770m gddr5.
