Hello guys,

 

I have my laptop with the below specs, in title, and I read about the possibility of upgrading the graphic card. I read that there could be a possibility if the NVIDIA is used. My laptop has the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 840M, so from your experience, can i eventually upgrade to som GeForce GTX 1050, GTX 1060, GTX 2080 latest Series or something better, without damaging my laptop?

 

which could be the GPU you could recommend me, pls?

Hi Ram,

It is not possible to upgrade the graphics card, as it is integrated on the motherboard together with the graphics subsystem.
