Can I put a Radeon 9200 series (?) graphics card in a laptop?

Question

Hi,
I have a Radeon 9200 series graphics card in my PC that I use for a certain game, but would really like to buy a laptop instead. I'm assuming that laptops wouldn't have this type of card pre-installed (unless I get an expensive one!), but can I install my old one on my laptop?

I know nothing about such things, so if you need more info about anything, let me know...

Thanks!

Okay, then, would I have to buy a laptop that has such a graphics card already installed? Is this even possible? Thanks!

Answer 1

No, you can not! There is no AGP slot in a laptop.

Answer 2

It is physically impossible. The Radeon 9200 graphic card is about the size of you hand and it won't even fit in the laptop. Actually, many affordable laptop has better graphic card than the one you have because Radeon 9200 is pretty outdated. Just make sure that it has a dedicated graphic card when you buy the laptop.

Answer 4

i don't think so. laptops are specially built and can't be modified as easy as a PC (no plug and play then). the graphics chip is usually embeded in the motherboard (as opposed to being on a separate card, as in most PCs), and you don't have additional PCI/AGP/PCIe slots to insert a new graphics card.

Answer 5

get a 9800 external card

Answer 6

check the games spec and find a laptop that meets or exceeds that specification.
