I need help. I play games on this laptop(only low quality ones) but I would like to be able to play higher end games. I have right now:
Intel Core i34005u Processor.
4GB Ram DDR3.
And built in graphics card.
Am I able to add in a graphics card or am I able to upgrade to any type of processor from the i5 series.
Thanks

The CPU in your laptop is soldered to the motherboard and would require specialty tools to swap, it's definitely not a DIY thing. In most cases it is not worth the expense to swap a soldered down CPU.
You would not be able to put a graphics card into the laptop but there are external adapters available (example: http://www.banggood.com/EXP-GDC-Laptop-External-PCI-E-Graphics-Card-p-934367.html ) that can allow a desktop graphics card to work with a laptop as this video describes, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bP_8EYQ-2RA it's not an ideal solution but it should work to improve gaming performance some.
