can the graphic card be upgraded

Check power requirements for your new graphics card. Chances are you will also need to upgrade the power supply.

This currently comes with onboard Intel Graphics Accelerator (GMA) 3000 Series. You may upgrade the graphics by adding a Half Profile PCI-Express card to this unit.

Depends...you usually want a balance between cpu power/ram and graphics.. But yeah a upgrade with g-card will usually give good results

Yes the ram can be changed. Th graphics can be changed but the card would take an expansion slot unless you purchase the pc without the integrated video card.

I am not sure if it's possible to upgrade to the latest technology, it has limited slots and physical internal space to add memory, upgrade processor and so on.. I sold this computer already cause it is discontinued but when I asked that question the geeksquad [best buy] estimated around $400 if you provide the parts..

Well any computer can run anything if you upgrade it enough. So basically with those upgrades you're simply asking if the stock NVIDIA GPU that it comes with can handle it, and I'd say probably yes. But it may be more economical to find a tower that has a better CPU and power supply and invest in a top of the line graphics card for it.

Yes you can install a new graphics card. You will also need to upgrade the power supply to match the card. It isn't really a big deal though, power supplies are cheap. I totally recommend this computer, it is great. (There are 12 usb ports on this machine. Figure that into your opinion.)

No you cannot. It is very rare to find any laptop that can be upgraded in terms of processor and/or graphics card. Only desktops have that privilege.

Hi, Yes, it can be upgraded. 8GB max / PC3-12800 1600MHz DDR3L, non-parity, two 204-pin SODIMM sockets It comes with: 11b/g/n, PCIe Half Mini Card, ThinkPad 11b/g/n, 1x1, Wi-Fi + Bluetooth combo adapter

Yes, you can. Any video card is compatible with this processor. If you are installing both items new, just remember to change your Bios Graphics Settings to PCI, before first boot.

There is an access panel on the back to upgrade the RAM, but I do not believe there is any way to upgrade the graphics or sound cards.

I think it could b upgraded, but you may have to purchase said upgrade from gateway/Asus???

it's a laptop with integrated graphics. no upgrade available. as a matter of fact, no laptop can upgrade a graphics card unless you are on a laptop worth several thousand dollars. what you *can* do is uninstall all the bloatware, streamline the msconfig to load only a few things, update the AMD drivers, and turn off Aero windows graphics to speed it up. I'm debating upgrading the ram to a faster ram and 8GB, but not sure it makes much difference. An overclocked ram set of 8GB would make the most difference. 8GB limit on this machine. For better graphics, look for an A8 or A10 AMD chip with a 7000G series APU or preferable dedicated GPU.

I upgraded graphics card and power supply , however even before doing do it could still run newer games just average specs on graphics unless you upgrade , mainly lacks shadow detail (stock graphics card) but still def worth it

Yes you can any graphics card would do. I got the Sapphire Radeon HD 7870 GHZ OC 2 GB 256 -bit GDDR5 DL-DVI-I/SL-DVI-D/HDMI/DP PCI-Express Graphics Card 100354OC-2L.
