I have a HP Pavilion G7-1158NR laptop that i have put a 1tb hard drive in. It is a great computer with a few flaws that I would like to fix.
a couple flaws are: (in short)
1) internet speeds aren't up to par (which i believe is because of the network card)
2) 1 ADATA 2gb Memory card (I would like to upgrade it to the max 8gb, but a good brand)
3) make it video game optimized for steam games.
1)
I noticed that my laptop even though it is a wireless N card (and does this both on ethernet) it just can't go as fast as my speeds for my internet. at first i thought it was my internet was at fault. but then i found out it is just my laptop. I pay comcast for 105m internet (which comcast overprovisions so it is like 110 to 115). my laptop will only get 30m give or take, regaurdless of if i am on wifi or ethernet..
2) i got a 2gb memory card in my computer, what is a good brand that is better than ADATA that i can use. im thinking of upgrading to 2 4gb cards.
3) my laptop lags a good bit when i try to play games like Team fortress on its lowest setting. I tried a few different games, like Alan wake and it was virtually impossible to move a couple feet.
I wanted to know if it is possible for me to upgrade to a gaming specified video card with my laptop. i do need something that has HDMI..
