    Is it possible to update my graphic card on this computer: http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsuppor...portFAQ&prodSeriesId=3849079&prodTypeId=12454

    I currently have the Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family and thinking it is integrated. I want to update it to something that can handle Minecraft, Battlefield, Arma II, etc.

    If I have to remove anything to get it up and running, please tell me so because I am not afraid to mess with my computer :). My only area of weakness are graphic cards.

    Note: Just noticed I mispelled "Graphic" on title.

    Nope. It's an integrated GPU which can't be upgraded, and as the motherboard is similar to that of a Laptop, there's no real PCI Express port.

    That's what I figured. Thanks for the reply.
