    I have Fujitsu Ah530.I ve upgraded cpu from pentium p6100 to core i5 480m;and ram to 4 gigs.

    I sold my desktop pc.So i want some gaming performance on my laptop.

    Intel Hd sucks and my laptop has no dedicated gpu.

    If your laptop has no dedicated GPU there's nothing to do. Even if it had, very few laptops allows you to switch it out.

    There has been some experimenting with external GPU's, but i've never actually seen one in the wild and they are pretty expensive. You're probably better off buying a new laptop.
