Possible yes.
Rather expensive tho.

You don't have a chance in hell of changing the GPU's inside laptops. They are soldered onto the main board so you're better off buying a laptop with discrete graphics or building yourself a desktop.

i dont think the gpus in laptop are soldered
they are only screwed
i was thinking to replace with one that it fits

all i have to say is check it out first before you make the purchase.

Its not a physical card, if its the integrated Intel graphics then the graphics units are part of the chip set which is soldered onto the main board.
Geve us some info on your laptop like processor, graphics, ram... ect.

Laptop's are build in a specified model, maybe it's possible but definitely hard

Amd card dunno if possivble to change you gotta check for compatibility

[Gragodine]

You can change the entire mobo if there is a mobo with better graphics.
but other than that your out of luck.

[yugurt]

you would have too change most of it to have decent performance

[Gragodine]

The processor its self is more of a bottleneck. Just invest in a new system.

Dude, it's an Acer, you're just fucked.
