Is it possible to replace integrated video cards?

I have a computer with a crappy integrated video card (16 mb) and no open ports. Is it possible to replace it for an upgrade?|||No. You can't replace integrated video cards. Sorry.|||Well the intergrated GFX card itself is part of the motherboard so no it cant be switched out but you can fit a new GFX card if you so wished.



If like you say you have no sockets left for the GFX card then your kinda stuck, or you could consider removing a non essential device from a socket so you can fit a new GFX card.



Sorry but there your only options atm.|||Integrated video is part of the motherboard. Replacing your motherboard could improve your video card somewhat, but if you need high-end video processing (for stuff like games) then you really need to buy a discrete video card -- the ones that take their own PCI-E slot.|||you cant replace an integrated graphics card you have to have an open port to upgrade your graphics. you prolly should get a new comp.|||yes it is so long as you have a compatible one. be very careful when opening your pc and try to obtain a grounding wriststrap so as not to damage any circuits with static|||No, not at all! except if you're a very tallented technician!|||I'm afraid not, sir. It's simply too much of a big job.
