Hi
I'd like to upgrade my 2gb amd radeon hd 6650m (laptop) for a 4gb graphics card, any suggestions.

Thanks
 
What laptop do you have?

MOST laptops graphics cards can not be upgraded at all. You would most likely need to buy a new laptop if you want to have a better gaming experience.
2GB of VRAM is MORE than enough for modern games, the speed of the graphics card is what matters.

First, you need to ask, is my laptop's graphics card actually upgradeable? In most cases, the answer will be a resounding "no". Even if the card is technically removable, almost no one sells the actual cards alone, and where they do, they're very expensive and won't necessarily fit the laptop's cooling solution.

Also, I think you are quite mistaken on a measure of graphics card power: even if you upgrade to the best laptop graphics chip available, you probably won't even use more than 1GB of the graphics memory. Just getting a card for that extra 2GB is almost certainly a huge waste.
