Can I upgrade my graphics card?

[hossaim]

I want a new graphics card for my laptop, but I know some come built into the motherboard.

Would I be able to?

Here are some screenshots of CPUZ for my specs.

It's a Lenovo Ideapad N580

You cannot upgrade a laptop's GPU. Best get a desktop

Alas, iv only about 200 hundred dollars.

My comp says that I have an extra slot, is it possible to fill it?

Yeah I don't think you can add a GPU to that laptop. It's just too low end to even suggest it.

Oh well.

Back to PS3.

Really not sure why my laptop is so low end. It cost about 300 hundred dollars new with widnows 8, seems like a lot of money for such a low end computer.

$300 is pretty damn cheap for a computer. A decent gaming laptop will run closer to $1000. Of course, a good gaming desktop will always be cheaper and more powerful.
