I am a pc noob and just recently started gaming on my Asus laptop Model number-Q550L. I play Battlefield 4 and I my FPS is about 20. I am thinking about purchasing the Sapphire Radeon HD 7750. Well I be able to use this for my laptop and will it bump up my fps 60+
Current Laptop Specs:
Graphics: NVIDIA GT 745M
System Memory: (RAM) 8GB(expandable to 16gb)
Video Memory: 2GB (dedicated)
Drive Capacity 1TB
 
Solution
Although not the best video card in a laptop, the 745M is at least much better than many.

Try lowering the settings in the game to get higher frame rates. You won't get to 40 unless you play on lowest settings, but may be able to hit 30 with some tweaking.

What if I purchase a new motherboard with a better video card on it. Would that work or would it be to costly?

I think you might aswell get another laptop then.
 
Laptop's do not have upgradable motherboards like Desktops do. The only way to do that would be to buy a better laptop no real way around it. There are only a handful of Laptops that even have upgradable GPU's and yours is not one of them. Out of those they run upwards to $3000 or more.

As far as a new Motherboard it would have to be made just for your case or it will not fit/work.
