Well, I recently got a windows 8 laptop in the mail for winning a contest #hellyeah But alas, as most prebuilt PC's I acquire, it has intel integrated graphics. :c Sooooo... I need a new GPU. My specs are the following:

Processor: Intel core i3 2.50 GHz
RAM: 4.00 GB
OS: 64-bit Windows 8
Graphics: Intel(R) HD Graphics 4000

I would like my spending limit to be no more than 150, but something a little more expensive may be negotiable.

f you have any other questions just send me a PM or reply to the topic and I'll get back to you ASAP.

Thanks again for your help guys

Regards,
-Devin

I do not believe that you can upgrade.

If it uses an intergrated gpu the motherboard probably won't support a gpu.

Seeing as it is a laptop, you simply can not install a gpu into it. Now, if you are wanting to game, you could sell the laptop and use the money to build a nice gaming pc. What is the specific laptop model though?

That only tells me the brand. Im looking for the full model name. If you won it in a contest, it should say in the email that they should have sent you what the model name of it is.
