Product: 15s-fq1505na
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have a 15s-fq1505na, does anyone know if my laptop has a slot for a graphics card, I want to install a gpu so tahat im not using integrated graphcis.

Also, would adding an 8gb ram stick (brining the total to 12gb) be benefical to performance and playing games such as modded minecraft?

Hi:

 

Below is the link to the Crucial memory report for your notebook...It can support up to 32 GB of memory.

 

https://uk.crucial.com/compatible-upgrade-for/hp---compaq/hp-15s-fq1505na

 

The only way to upgrade the graphics would be to replace the motherboard and that would cost more than buying a new notebook that already comes with the nvidia graphics, since your notebook is so new.

 

Additional memory will help a little bit, but the only way for video games to really work better would be to have a model that has a discrete graphics adapter such as the Nvidia or AMD Vega graphics.
