I have a HP Pavilion dv6-1210sa and i have an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4530 Graphics with 512 MB DDR3 dedicated graphics memory

and basically i want to upgrade cause im only getting 50-60 fps when i play games such as cod4 and i was just wondering what to upgrade to and what would fit into the laptop.

Thanks

Rav

You can't just upgrade laptop graphics cards unless you are very skilled at soldering. There are external graphics cards for laptops.

Wow. What's kind of game you are playing? Your gfx card specific is vrey so high and I think if you decrease resolution/frame rate. This card can play any game. I envy you.
