I would suggest a radeon 4870 (based on price/performance and overall performance)
or an nvidia equivalent. you can get a higher or lower depending on your specific needs.
Laptop graphics cards are generally considered to be impossible to upgrade.
Yes. The ASUS K8U-X has four PCI slots.
No, an Asus X551 laptop cannot run DayZ or any video game requiring a dedicated graphics card. The Asus X551 uses an integrated Intel HD graphics chipset which is insufficient for running higher-end video games.
Asus g73 on Ebay. Good laptop.
Need a Micro SD adapter
I was considering this: asus XG_Station as a solution but I would like to know if there is any that can actually adapt to improve my graphics card, personally I don't want a new laptop if I can improve my current laptop. The Asus x58l has a vga slot so I though with a dvi adapter it may work.
You can use AGP graphics card with any type of memory DDR. DDR2, DDR3. Graphics card memory type does not have any relation with memory type used on your PC's motherboard. - Neeraj Sharma I believe this answer is incorrect. I have found that some motherboards have onboard graphics which are connected to the pci slots. This creates a connection with a PCI graphics card, and the differences in RAM type will indeed cause problems for the driver and the OS. Bill Newman
Yes, it should work perfectly fine. The Asus M3A76-CM has a PCI-E 2.0 x16 rail, and the GTX 460 requires a PCI-E 2.0 x16 rail. Always make sure that the motherboard has a x16 rail, this gives the motherboard the ability to transfer data on all 16 rails of the graphics card, versus an x4, which would only transfer data on 4 rails of the graphics card. -Make sure your PSU is rated good enough for the graphics card Good Luck
There is no way to extend your screen with an Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 3150. The graphics card is simply unable to extend the screen between 2 monitors. I did some research to see if you could, and the graphics card is just incapable of preforming the job. I did find a program that will do this with windows 7 starter, but it cannot with this type of graphics card. ( I have an ASUS Eee PC 1015 PE net book with this graphics card and windows 7 starter.) This problem also doesn't work on Home Premium or any other version of windows (Including Xp) if you have this type of graphics card.
Previous Reply:No. That model has integrated graphics only. No space to put in a replacement card.This is somewhat incorrect, you cannot replace a card that already doesn't exist in a laptop, but it is possible to add graphics via an external graphics card provided you have a thunderbolt port.Updated Answer:Yes, it is possible to install better graphics to a laptop. The previous answer-er was correct in saying you cannot install a graphics card in your model. But if you had a laptop with a thunderbolt connector, then you could buy a graphics card dock for about $200 USD.In all, I don't believe you are able to, because you don't have a thunderbolt connector in your laptop model.
yes it can be played with ease if you put a good graphics card like nvidia 8500 gt/gtx
The i5 processor contains a very descent HD4000 graphics processor that allows gaming. It is not for hardcore gaming. An additional graphics card makes the laptop a good gaming one...go for it !!
