Can I install a graphics card in my HP PC even though it has an Integrated card?
by vearan on December 14, 2010Q: I have an HP PC but it has an integrated graphics card. I was wondering if I could buy another graphics card for it and what cards it would take.

Possibly, it just depends on the computer.
Post the model of your computer, your budget and what you want to be able to play and I should be able to offer some ideas.

Sorry vearan, you’re out of luck with upgrading this computer. It looks like this is a compact pc that was build to save space and not be all that upgradeable.

Ideally we’d be looking for a PCI-Express slot to be available, but this motherboard doesn’t have any slots to support a graphics cards.
Your only real option to improving your World of Warcraft experience would be to replace your PC. If this becomes something you’re interested in doing, and you want some help picking one out, please post a new question. Thanks!
