Hp envy 13-ah003na
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi,

I would like to know if it's possible to upgrade the graphic card of my Hp envy 13-ah003na  that has a dedicated graphic card Nvidia GeForce mx150  and if possible what would be the best option/s as I'm pretty sure some graphic cards will not run efficiently based on the specifications of my laptop ( Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8550U CPU @ 1.80GHz, 1992 Mhz, 4 Core(s), 8 Logical Processor(s)) with 16gb Ram ) then the laptop will struggle to manage it.

 

Any help will be much appreciated.

Thank you

You're very welcome.

 

You are 100% correct.

 

If there is a motherboard with a better GPU, if you could find the part, it would probably cost as much as buying a new notebook with better graphics included.

Hi:

 

The graphics adapter is an integral part of the motherboard and cannot be upgraded unless the motherboard is replaced by one listed in your notebook's service manual that may come with better graphics.

thanks for your reply,
