I have an AMD Radeon HD 6530D graphics card right now. I want to upgrade it but everywhere I have read says that it is integrated into the motherboard. Is there any way I can upgrade this to a better card? I do a lot of gaming and I want something that can handle high setting gameplay. I also stream lots of games and want to have something capable of running dual monitors while I game.

would you happen to be using an amd a6 apu by any chance? (that includes the 6530d onboard)

laptop or desktop?

if laptop then theres not really any easy way of upgrading.

if desktop then you have two options:
-if the graphics are onboard your cpu then you can buy a card on the crossfire list for that cpu to run both cards at once for better performance (although you will be limited to only cheap cards)

-or buy a graphics card for a pcie slot in your computer. this completely bypasses any onboard video (both onboard cpu and mb) ad is likely the better option. you need to make sure that your psu can handle the additional load though.

i would suggest listing your pc specs.
