i'm going to buy this laptop soon ''HP Pavilion 17-f237nd''

 

I'm considering on upgrading the graphics card as soon as it arrives, but i can't find any laptop gpu's ''in the netherlands''

 

If anyone could help me out find a site to buy one or atleast look some up

 

 

Something close to the Radeon R7 M265, or the GeForce GTX 860M

Not possible I am positive that laptop does not have removable GPUs

 

Very few laptops use replaceable MXM cards (Clevo and Alienware some models do)

As far as I can tell, it's got one GPU option which means you can't even upgrade it by putting in a higher end board because there isn't one.

Why do you want a removable GPU so bad? I don't know what your price range is but if it's under ~$600-700 USD I'd get a slightly used gaming laptop.

none, you are looking at 1000 to 1500 for MXM cards, they also cost A LOT of money - more than desktop GPUs

its cool, yeah MXM cards are rare, very few laptops have them, even most MSI, Asus, etc gaming laptops do not have them

 

its cheaper and easier to just solder the part in

 

EDIT - HP Pavilion 17-f237nd - has no GPU, its an AMD APU, there is no graphics card
