    I am hoping someone can help me and maybe advise me on some helpful information. I bought a HP Pavilion laptop with Intel Core i7 @ 2.70GHz. The specs are:
    8GB RAM
    256 SSD
    2TB HD (Where optical drive was)
    Integrated Intel HD Graphics 620 card


    Now I know with that specific graphics card you cant play much/any games. I was looking to know if it is easy to upgrade the graphics cards in these laptops or if at all possible? Also would you be able to recommend any good reasonably prices graphics cards.

    It is extremely rare to have a laptop that can have it's graphics card upgraded and only on more expensive models. And i'm almost certain that the HP pavilion range cannot be upgraded.

    Hard drive, ram and occasionally cpu upgrades , yes. Graphics cards almost certainly not. But you need to post your model number to be 100% sure

    If you want to game you need to think bigger.
