Upgrade graphics for dell studio 1735

[Jameslulz]

Just bought a dell studio 1735 cheap, until i can afford a new pc after my house flooded. Problem is, it uses integrated graphics, which are pretty useless. Is it possible to buy and install a graphics card similar to the optional 256MB ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650 when buying new? If it is, can someone link me to a suitable seller in the uk? thanks a lot

There is no user GPU upgrade for that. Usually, on a laptop, the GPU is hardwired to the motherboard, and non-replaceable. Unless you get a whole different motherboard.

Graphics are generally only upgradeable in high end gaming laptops generally costing $1,500+. However, only specific models have that option so it's possible that a gaming laptop costing $2,000+ will not have that capability.
