can i upgrade the hd 8750m to 8790m? i bought a new laptop i.e hp probook 450 g1 with the following specs-
cpu:i7 4702mq
gpu:amd radeon hd 8750m 2gb ddr3
ram:16gb
if i buy a new hd 8790m then will i be able to replace the current hd 8750m?
i think they both use the same slot- pcie 3.0 x8. their details are listed here-http://www.amd.com/us/products/notebook/graphics/oem-solutions/Pages/8700-8800.aspx#2.

No, mobile components cannot be replaced.

(They can... but its a pain in the but, not worth it, you have to disassemble your machine... You have to find a used card.. as all mobile cards are OEM... You'd have to strip it from another machine.)
