I have an HP 250 G6

Since I recently bought a game that needed a good graphics card and then realized that I needed a better graphics card for this game, I figured I could swap it for a better one.

However, I did not find a graphics card in my internet research that I could use for my laptop, so I turn to you.

Do you have a suggestion for a graphics card and a price estimate?

I would be very happy to hear from you.

You can't change the graphics card because it is included in your CPU socket…

but what there are are so-called E-GPUs, which you then "simply" hang on your laptop…

BUT:

are these extremely expensive (mostly they cost around 400, but that is often WITHOUT a graphics card!)
your CPU is also not the newest anymore…

what kind of game is it?

The laptop was built just for itself. A graphics unit would be missing the following:

Space, power supply

The best thing to do is to buy a brand new PC instead of a laptop.

Your graphics unit is integrated with the processor. Roughly speaking, you can't upgrade your laptop.

is it not working?

But it works, only my laptop is a bit overwhelmed and the game hangs…

As far as I have seen, your laptop has no graphics card at all, only a graphics unit built into the processor.

It would make most sense if you sell the laptop and buy a new one

Otherwise you can still buy an external graphics card, but it will probably not even be compatible with the laptop

ca

Ok… Set the graphics to the lowest possible level and then look again…
If it is still the same, it is due to the CPU, not the graphics card

Cr

But if I look at the CPU while the game is running, it is at 60% but the graphics at 99%

Cr

Yes, thanks, but I'm not just buying a new one for a game…

ca

Ok… The fact is that you can't simply exchange the graphics card.

Cr

Thank you for helping me.

Gladly, unfortunately without the answer you wanted.
