Are there alternative graphics cards for my laptop?

I love my Intel card. The thing is, there are too many games that aren't compatible with the Intel chipset - 2 so far that I have experienced for myself; Age of Empires 3 and Marc Ecko's Getting Up. Neither of them work due to the card.





I want a Radeon card - they are compatible with most anything. The question is, where can I get it and how much will it cost?

Intel's integrated graphics solution wasn't intended to be a gaming solution. It doesn't even support hardware T%26amp;L.





And the bad news for you is that, you have a laptop. You cannot upgrade the graphics "cards" on your laptop because the graphics chip is soldered into the motherboard and since you don't have the expansion capability to put in an PCIe card or AGP card, you're pretty much stuck with what you have.





The only practical way of getting a new video card is to buy another laptop. There's no way of getting around that.
Reply:Chances are where talking about a laptop here!





Its not a graphics cardyou want here - just think how will that fit into your laptop! If you adventours (or dumb) you could look at chaning the motherboard to update the graphics.
Reply:first of all. I don't think you really love intel cards, they arent very good.





second, laptop graphics cards are very expensive because of the size.





third, you would have to viod your warentee to replace it.





If you do have a warentee you could talk to that company and ask them, or find a laptop service centre near you
