Pavilion 15-au123cl
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

So I recieved an HP Pavilion 15-au123cl (15.6 inch) for christmas, and was wondering if it was possible to install a graphics card (note there is not already one installed, it is running off Intel HD Graphics 620.) Is there a spot on the motherboard to install one? Would be great to know, there is not a model for the motherboard on the product page.

Hi,


Specs: http://support.hp.com/in-en/document/c05281411

Manual: page 48, 49

Graphic chip is integrated on to the motherboard and board is unique to the processor, graphic system and operating system. You cannot put in additional chip. You've to change whole board, which will be way too costly.

I wasn't asking about integrated board graphics (no offense) I was just asking if there was an extra slot for a seperate GPU, like an NVIDIA of something. I there one?

No.

Board is unique to each graphic system, processor, operating system.
