[Graphics Cards] Adding One to a Toshiba Satellite p875-s7310

[JMCrew]

I know that this laptop has integrated graphics (Intel 4000 HD), but I was wondering if the laptop itself is capable of being upgraded graphics card wise. I've read that a few laptops actually are, but most aren't due to the nature of integration. I'll run off some specs and let you guys take a look at it.

Toshiba Satellite p875-s7310
Intel i7 2.4ghZ 4 core, 8 logical processors
8GB RAM
750GB SSD
Intel 4000 Series HD Graphics

You can't, that laptop doesn't even have a mobile pcie module(mxm).

agreed. see pics of mobo for bga, which is for 635M + 2G Gddr
however, case is same as Qosimo, so you might swap mobo.
there is little point then, as you can just get a different laptop.

Hello Yoshi, I'd like to know how much would it cost me to swap the motherboard and get a decent graphics card. a rough estimate would be highly appreciated. Also what graphic card + mobo would you recommend? I have the same laptop as stated above by the original poster.
