Hi

\015\012Thank you for your query

\015\012Unfortunatley unlike desktop PC's, laptops do not have swappable graphics cards as they are built into the motherboard
\015\012
\015\012So in essence to replace the graphics card you would be swapping out pretty much all the internals of your laptop i.e. to swap graphic card you will need a new motherboard, if you need a new motherboard then you will need a new CPU etc etc
\015\012
\015\012Apologies again
