i want to upgrade the graphics card on my laptop to play games like BF3. i have a geforce 9400m which can play games at lower setting but can you increase the GPU without changing the motherboard?
 
Solution
On most laptops, the answer is generally no. To upgrade your graphics on your laptop, usually you will have to buy a new laptop, as the chip is soldered onto the laptop motherboard usually.
