as far as i am aware the mobile graphics is usually not upgradable.  they most likely will be soldered to the motherboard and cant be upgraded.  that is how i have always seen it.  If you want to upgrade that then you will have to replace the motherboard in your laptop with one that has the upgraded graphics.  as for the processor and ram upgrading from an A6 to an A10 and 4GB of ram to 8GB is nice.  if you are still using an HDD instead of an SSD you are losing preformance.  i would consider an SSD and possibly replacing the DVD Drive with a Hard Drive bay and add a HDD to store your game library or large files.

Vidiochip is in the processor itself .... when you replace the processor from A6 to A10, the video adapter changes from AMD Radeon HD 7520G to AMD Radeon HD 7660G

Yes but some laptops have descrite graphics or dedicated graphics which is not part of the processor.  those are only upgradable via the process of replacing the motherboard.

Yes I know...

You might know how to install dual graphics?

Dual graphics: ● AMD Radeon HD 7660G+HD 7670M Dual Graphics for computer models equipped with an AMD A10-4600M APU and AMD Radeon HD 7670M graphics card

(When installing the A10 processor, only the video chip changes from 7520G to 7660G)
