HP Zbook 17 GPU change from k610m to k5100m Worth it?

[zbook17]

Hi, I have a HP ZBook 17 Gen 1 or 2 with Intel Core i7 4800 32GB RAM and 2–1 terabyte SSDs and

1–1 terabyte mSATA SSD. It is brand new and never-used. Is it worth it to upgrade my GPU from the NVIDIA Quadro K610M with 1GB of dedicated GDDR5 to the NVIDIA Quadro K5100M with 8GB of dedicated GDDR5?

HP has produced and brought to market more than a thousand different models of notebooks and desktop PCs over the years.

It is difficult to help you if we don't know which specific model you own..

Method #1: If the notebook will boot into Windows, you can retrieve your Product Number by pressing Fn + Esc key.

Method #2: Press the power button and immediately tap the F10 key to invoke the BIOS. In the Main section, you will find the Product number or Product ID. Post that in your next reply in your thread.

Method #3: Press the power button and immediately tap the F2 key.
If your laptop has HP Hardware Diagnostics UEFI version 10.3.0.0, there is a System Information section that also has the Product ID.
We need that information, along with the installed Operating System information to help you.

Don't forget to post the name of the installed operating system if you haven't already done that.
