Hello everyone. I have a simple/stupid question .
My computer knowledge its pretty basic a few mouth ago i bought a laptop
(http://www.computeruniverse.net/en/products/90539284/toshiba-satellite-l70-a-13n.asp this is the only site i can find in English)
And i want to place this graphic card in it
http://www.geforce.com/hardware/notebook-gpus/geforce-gtx-980m
What i want to know is this:
1-Where can i see if this graphic cards is available for my laptop.
2-The cards for laptops and normal computers are the same? Or i need a different one since its a laptop?
Sorry for the bad English.

For most laptops manufactured by the larger PC companies, the GPU is not upgradeable. Toshiba, unfortunately, does not manufacture laptops with upgradeable GPUs. You're limited to upgrading RAM and hard drives (ssd).

sorry. graphic card for PC's are not the same as a Laptop. and Laptop video card are not upgradable. (only know i know on changing a video card to a higher type is by modding it, but you won't get any help when anything goes wrong).
