For Gpu impossible

it would be necessary to replace the motherboard certainly

That mean for my laptop top cpu i7-620m? Because i7-720qm for models with discrete gpu?

Or i7-720m i can installed too?

[Prométhée]

sorry i have a doubt!
I would be tempted to say that yes you cannot have the i7-720qm if not the original ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4550 card
but it's still not clear
it is necessary to completely reread the manual perhaps!
