Hello community of Tom's hardware. I own a laptop that i am trying turn into a gaming pc. I was wondering if it was possible for me to upgrade my graphics card at all. My pc specs are "Intel Core i3-2370M CPU 2.40GHz (4 CPUs)". Graphics card "Intel HD Graphics 3000". Memory "4GB". So the real question is "Can i upgrade this computer to a point where i can run battlefield 4 Ultra Settings?" If not then what parts do I need to run ultra settings on a laptop?

nope, your only option is a desktop or much more expensive gaming laptop.

sounds good, and do you know how much you will spend on it right now, or when you will buy it?

well, when putting the parts together, be careful, but if you are careful, nothing should go wrong :)

http://pcpartpicker.com/ this is a great place to get started, and you can ask around on here for advice. you need a cpu, motherboard, ram, an hdd/sdd, graphics card power supply, and case, and usually an optical drive and maybe some other little things.
