    Generally not. Laptop components are usually smaller, and designed with far less power consumption in mind. The fixtures are also different, with most laptops leaving no scope for expansion.

    Some of them are called Mini PCI (simple enough to understand :)) but graphics in laptops are expensive to upgrade and alot of the time not really possible.
