Hello Gio39,
Can I have the product number of your laptop?

And as far as i know now i would say no.
becouse the HD4000 is a GPU baked into a CPU

Hi,
The simple answer is: No, you can't. Actually we can't change video card on many laptops.
Regards.

hello, banhien
Actually I do not agree
he didn't tell me his model (P/N)
I figured out that there where some laptop within this model which have switchable graphics.
So untill i know his P/N i can't say anything.

Hello banhien,
I do agree that you shouldn't switch a laptop graphics card. Even if it is possible.
So i agree for the full 100%
But my thanks to HP which created some laptops which has a switchable graphics card.
Pure nonsense and totally unuseful in my opinon!
First of all i hope that i'm on time
But ontopic,
Gio39, I need to have the link of the website where you are going to buy it.
Some laptops in your series do have the so called switchable graphics solution but some don't
If you buy the wrong laptop you will pay way to much for a "energy saving" laptop where you can't play games on
So even if i want to help you i can't before i know exactly which model you buy.
offtopic, just search for the HP pavilion G6 i go crazy about all the diffrent models.
