install graphics card laptop

paulbush1912 · Jan 4, 2014

I have a hp compaq nc6400 and i like to put a new powerfull graphics card onto it or install a new one. Is this possible, there is a slot on the bottom of the laptop. Im not sure if i can use this slot?

Laptops are not supposed to be upgradeable. I would recommend looking at desktop pc's, because that is where the real "upgrading" is.

No, you can't change the graphics system on that.

And from looking at it, that is a VERY old and slow laptop.

Even if possible (and it isn't), any change would be minimal.

Not an expert on this laptop but a quick read about told me that it's unlikely that you'll be able to put a graphics card into that laptop.

There's often a limit to the upgrades you can do on a laptop CPU,RAM etc.

The slot is for the laptop to attach to a docking station (power , extra I/O, display, etc)
