HDX X18-1103ea motherboard swap

I hope somebody can enlighten me : can I swap my current motherboard which holds Q9000 and 9600M GT-1GB for one that holds the same chip, but the 130M GT. how is this done- will the "new" mobo come together with the chip and the vga or I have to buy those separately?
my product number is FU779EA and according to HP part surfer the mother board number is 506495-001 so can I swap for 519592-001.
the point of this is to gain some more graphics power without the need to buy a new laptop.

 

Don't expect much of a boost from the 9600mGT to the 130m, just lower temps; have you tried overclocking yet? You could probably get to at least 600/1550/500 stable on what you have now.

The GPU is intergrated and as far as I know, you can reuse the heatsink from the old motherboard and just place it on the new one (after applying some thermal paste to the CPU and GPU, remove the processor and place it in the new board and you should be good to go.

Again though, I wouldn't bother trying to change it unless your current board is going south, there's not that much of an improvement.

 

tried overclocking- used EVGA, nVIDIA System Tools, Riva Tuner(this one freezes my laptop), but although GPU-Z reports the change, the current clocks always show as 400/800/400, even when playing 3D games, powermizer disabled, power plan is always high performance. do I need to get an old bios to do proper overclocking? I use now F.32.

 

A new/old bios probably wouldn't fix it (I've gone three of the updates since I got mine and); Rivatuner doesn't crash on me oddly enough.

Which OS are you running?
