Hey, can someone tell me the best way to upgrade my HP dv6604nr's memory (RAM) and video card to so that I can play games Like WoW and TF2 without a shitload of lag?


Thanks,
~KlassicKool


EDIT: and by help I mean links to good parts that are worth the money...I'm on a budge of about $150.00 (for both)...Again, many thanks.

What are you running now because for that litte I doubt you can make any serious kind of upgrade unless you buy used

KlassicKool

I'm willing to buy used..I'm using all default specs from that link.

And when you're not old enough to work without it being an abuse of child labor laws, it's hard for you to even get that amount of money >_<...

you cannot upgrade video cards on laptops. it is built right in to the motherboard.
sorry.

The graphic card cannot be replaced on a laptop. However the RAM can be upgraded. In fact it's easier to upgrade RAM on a laptop then it is a desktop. However if you want to play games, a reasonable graphic card will be required, no matter how much RAM you have.

Unfortunately, My crappy laptop only came with x64 graphics card...I need at least 256 to play the games I want to play >_<.

Thanks for the help Sunspyda.

No problem, Klassickool I'm still running this laptop with 16MB graphics, 256MB of RAM & a 1GHZ Pentium 3 CPU. I know how annoying lack of GPU & CPU speed can be! Laptops are costly....

KlassicKool

If I can't buy a decent graphics card, I'm pretty sure I can't buy a laptop >_</

Yeah,I just sold my desktop, I was going to save the money to upgrade this laptop, I think I'm just going to save up for a wayy better desktop.
