Hi everyone.
Initially, I did not set myself the goal of playing demanding games. But I can't resist before COD WarZone, and there I need 4GB of video memory.

 

Help me how to upgrade (replace) my GeForce 930MX 2Gb videocard to a similar one with 4GB of videomemory.
Who knows, indicate the exact model of the desired.

You have to buy new System board which unfortunately N/A because the series only supports Nvidia GeForce 930MX with 2 GB dedicated video memory with 3 options

 

  • Intel Core i7-7500U processor; 2-GB discrete graphics memory part # 907715-xxx
  • Intel Core i5-7200U processor; 2-GB discrete graphics memory part # 907714-xxx
  • Intel Core i3-7100U processor; 2-GB discrete graphics memory part # 907713-xxx 

        xxx = 001: Non-Windows operating systems
        xxx = 601: Windows 10 operating system

 

Regards.

What options do I have to improve the productivity of my configuration? Maybe the so-called "overclocking", BIOS settings and so far?

HP Recommended

@Serg_Br 

 

Sorry, no overclocking available in BIOS for nearly all HP consumer machines. HP 470 G4 is a series of many different models/products therefore I can't comment you your machine.

 

In general, you can upgrade to 32GB of RAM  and use SATA SSD drive which is faster the mechanical HDD.

This is the first time when I read that the increase in RAM and the speed of the hard drive compensates for the lack of video memory.

Do you have this practice?
Apparently, for COD WarZone, it is the amount of video memory that I lack.

I don't know what you mean. People upgrading RAM and storage every day.

I mean the following:
COD WarZone is an online game. It starts up quite quickly (enough RAM), the card also does not load for a long time (the work of the hard drive is also without delays), and it slows down during the game when there is a lot of 3D graphics on the screen.

Here's what I had in mind in my question: did you have a practice when increasing the RAM and increasing the speed of the hard drive, there was a significant increase in the work of the graphics process?

The main problem with your machine is video card therefore upgrading RAM or faster storage may not help specially online games.
