Not likely, we added one our selves. Picked it up at best buy for around $35. Easy to do your self. Really, they can help you with it at best buy if you ask nicely. Bring the whole unit with you. The back comes off and you can see where it goes. Oh, and that disk in the photo..... not likely included either. Not included in mine.

No but there is a slot for a video card. It is next to the hard drive so it would need to be narrow and 1/2 high so make sure it has a kit LP Bracket label on the box. I put a Radion 5400 in my with a fan. Would not hold the Heatsink.

You can play games and download, but I have had nothing but problems with my refurbished model after the first month or two. I would be very Leary of buying a refurbished model again.

yes. you have one of two choices with it.install windows 7... or wait until windows 9 comes out.thr RAM, PROCESSOR and HARD DRIVE are upgradeable.the video card is strong enough for High Def.a good find for a geek or a geek to setup (be the administrator of) for a loved one.

System memory has no relation to the video card. You need a PCI Express 2.0 slot for this card to work. It has built in memory. However if you are looking to play games with this, you will be dissapointed, its a very basic video card with on board x264 HD decoding. I put one in my parents computer since they only use the internet and video.

Yes, you can, but not for games... Just normal use... The graphic card is weak but works :)

Sorry I just saw this. No it is not. I bought it for world of Warcraft and come to find out it had no graphics card so I purchased one. When I went to install it I also found out there is no place for a graphics card fit for gaming.

It has an integrated graphics card. says it's the Intel Q965/Q963 Express chipset Family. The computer is fast, reliable, and has plenty of power. (3.0 Ghz) but that graphics card is useless for high end mmorpgs or games like farcry or bioshock 2. That's why I'm going to return mine shortly. Unless you can upgrade it, then it's a great buy, but the fact that it's a mini tower will limit what you can upgrade with.

There's not in mine, but there is a slot in the back that I think you could add it the way I added the video card.

Could I play games such as NBA 2K14 or even games that require a good video card with this laptop?

Yes. I am super happy with this purchase. Just make sure you update all the drivers as soon as you get it. The vid card is a really nice touch for the price point.

Just the ram. The graphics card is integrated. Ram only has one slot so not much room for upgrades.

you should be able to play those game, but you will want to upgrade you video card down the road.

No this is very basic computer, a very good model but graphics, processing and memory are no where near what you would need for gaming. this model is good for getting online, watching shows online and storage of pictures and documents, and some basic computing programs. search for gaming models.

Plenty to handle box as delivered... should handle a minor upgrade to video card, but not a major high power video card... installed video card works well on most current games as long as you do not want to use extreme high quality game settings... low to medium work very well..

I don't know what type of video card you got with the system. The answer is probably. You'd swap out the existing card or use the open slots on the mother board. You should verify you have the correct slot for the card. Second, I have an i7. It's freaking great!!! But you need fast memory to go along with it. If your system doesn't come with good gaming memory, then upgrade that along with your i7. It will cost about 40 bux to get kick ass memory, Google gaming memory for options.

I'm not seeing the "NVIDEA GeForce" in the specs. as H.L. posted. Showing "Intel HD Graphics 4600" instead.Also, note that there's no optical drive (CD/DVD) either.

Yes it should include one if not you can pick one up for $10 off eBay. If this is the same one I bought a year ago I doesn't include a graphics card. The graphics are integrated.
