Is it possible for me to change my graphics card on my laptop? It's an Acer Aspire V15 Touch. It has good specs and I only recently got it. Any kind of help will do, thanks!
 
Solution
Oh, the spec sheet I reviewed showed the Intel Graphics 4400 as your graphics chip. The NVidia 840M is also not removable, though. The only time you can upgrade your GPU is if it is an MXM card, which your 840M is not. Sorry sonny!
Short answer: No, you cannot change it.

Your graphics chip is the Intel processor; it's what is known as integrated graphics (as opposed to dedicated graphics, which would be a separate, usually more powerful graphics chip).
 


From what I've read, it says that my laptop has an Nvidia Geforce 840m. Is that what your on about, sorry? I know a few things but I'm not an expert.
