    Hello I searched for long time but I couldn't find my subject so I open new thread. I want to ask is it possible to upgrade my gpu GeForce 9650M GT or 96000M GS or Ati3470, 9300M GS. I wrote these gpu's because I onyl can buy them. I also want to ask if GeForce 9650M GT or 96000M GS cards can't support, Can Ati3470, 9300M GS cards give more performance than Geforce 7400

    Sorry, but very few laptops can have their GPUs upgraded. I'm pretty sure you cannot upgrade yours either.

    1) Is your current graphics card integrated?
    If your answer is:
    a) Yes: You can't upgrade it, no chance, no way, sorry.
    b) No: Answer question 2

    2) Does your laptop/notebook have a MXM gpu?
    a) No: then you can't upgrade.
    b) Yes: if so, then tell us which version, and I'm sure someone will be very willing to tell you which cards your system can support.

    I actually decided to do the work for you, and I'm 99% sure that the old geforce 7400m's are indeed integrated.

    Also, nothing sony was on the MXM list.

    That being said, no you can't upgrade your laptop's video card (not even a .0001% chance, sorry bud).
