Hi i got an old Asus G75VW at home already got it a new ssd for Windows and 8 GB more of ram sadly i didnt know much about hardware and performance when i bought it about 4 years ago so i didnt know that the GTX 660m was already outdated. I would be interested in upgrading the graficcard and would like to ask if anyone maybe knows how far i could go with this laptop. I have it for to long to just give it up and want to gift it with a fiew more years if possible.

 

Thanks for all the help in advance even if there is no way of upgrading.

What CPU does it have? 

 

EDIT:

 

Is it a laptop? If so, you can't upgrade it.

The GPU here sits on a custom-sized MXM card. The best you can upgrade to is a GTX 680M which must also be ripped from another Asus G75.

 

But really, even the 680M is slow. Time for something newer.

I know that its far behind everything now excisting but this Laptop was such a good companion over the last years, never really giving me problems that i am not ready to exchange it if i can upgrade it.

 

Do i really need a gtx 680m from another g75 or is there a way to use one from other laptops? if i need one from a G75 may can you maybe say me what the problem with others could be?

Size problem. If you try fit a card from another brand in there to replace the 660m, it might not fit in the space meant for the MXM card even though the connector itself allows the card to work just fine.
