Lately I’ve been wondering if I could upgrade my graphics card and processor. I couldn’t find the answers I was looking for online

 

Graphics Card: AMD Radeon R4

 

Processor: AMD A6-9225

Hi:

 

The processor and graphics adapters are integral parts of the motherboard and cannot be upgraded.

 

The only way to upgrade either, would be to replace the motherboard with one listed in chapter 3 of your notebook's service manual that may come with a better processor and graphics.

 

The costs attendant to performing such an upgrade would probably exceed the cost you originally paid for the notebook, making such an upgrade a poor return on investment.
