Upgrading my mGPU concerns.

[HeyPleaseDie]

I have an HP G60-231wm, I'm planning on upgrading the CPU from the stock CPU (Athlon X2 QL-64) to a Turion X2 Ultra ZM-86. after that I plan on maxing out the RAM.

The current mGPU is a GeForce 8200M G. I'm not sure if it's integrated or not.
If not, would a GeForce GT 820M be a compatible upgrade? If not, which one would be?

Thanks.

Hi,

Most of the laptops today doesn't have upgradeable GPU's unfortunately. Here's a support forum from HP which tackles the same question about GPU upgrade.

Here's also a thread about GPU and CPU upgrades when it comes with laptops.

Thanks for replying.

From the info in the second link, the GPU isn't integrated because there is no (R). Though, I'll still be on the fence about finding an upgrade if the info is true as it's not a number one priority.

Thank you.
