HP Pavilion All-in-one 22-a113
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I recently purchased a game for PC online. The game is compatible with Windows 10. When I tried to install the game, it showed in a window: "Your system is not compliant with the minimum requirements to play the game. You should look at the details to know which requirements are not satisfied and upgrade it." It turned out that the problem was coming from the Video card. It has an Intel(R) HD Graphics, and obviously it has to be upgraded  with another type of video card with better performance that this one.

but my question is: can the Video card on this kind of computer be replaced?

I have an  HP Pavilion All-in-one 22-a113.

Thank you.

@JeepHP, welcome back to the forum.

 

The answer to your question is, no.  The only expansion slot that is on the motherboard is one M.2 slot for WLAN.  As you can see, it is used for a LAN card.  The upgradability for these computers is limited because of the 90W external power supply.  They are simply not meant for gaming of any kind.

The primary reason I purchased this HP was the price, and also was a touch screen and Intel i5. Excellent I thought. Gaming was not my primary idea. But I bought that game and I was wondering how will it be to be played in that PC. I guess I have to find another PC for that game. Thank you.

You are welcome, @JeepHP.  Thank you for the additional information.  I understand what you are saying.  It is difficult to play even the mid-level games because they require a lot of power; especially from the video cards.  This is why HP has become selling great gaming computers.
