Hi,
i have Dell inspiron 5520, i5, 4gb ram and intel hd graphic card (built-in). Issue is that i cant use 3d software like lumion, 3d studio max and others on this devise. some one told me to upgrade my graphic card. all i want to know is that which graphic card is suitable for my device. if built-in is changeable.
thank you.

In that case, you need a laptop made for working with those programs not a general use home system. Lenovo W, HP Z Book, Dell Precision laptops are made for work with CAD, Rendering and other such programs.

A gaming laptop will also do OK for the work, something that comes with an nVidia 860m/960m class card will have a good enough CPU, RAM and video card to run your programs properly.

3d max works fine but takes much long time in render, though lumion runs very very slow with no colors at all. which means no graphics.
so there is no chance in upgrading graphic card? What if i add more ram?

RAM may speed things up, but you can't upgrade the video card. Another issue is that laptop CPUs are made for power efficiency, if you want a system for 3DMax you should build a desktop.
