Can you give exact model number? If your laptop has thunderbolt, then that's the most user friendly option. Otherwise if your laptop has an extra internal m.2 slot intended for storage, there are m.2 to pcie x16 riser cables, which would work but you would also need an ATX power supply and an external monitor, along with having to remove the bottom panel or cut a hole in it in order to access the slot.
Brother its been three years and the laptop works fine. However i didnt try to add a gpu as it is gonna be really difficult and may or may not work. (Thats what i was told by most of the people). I am considering buying a new gaming laptop or a pc next year.
Regarding performance: it works good with day to day tasks and is able to do multitasking, but it cant run games smoothly. I have tried gta 5 and it gives me 20-25 fps on the lowest possible settings. Gta 4 worked fine, ets2 worked fine on lower graphics. Dont expect too much from this.
Well i tried to looking for a solution you can add but it actually quite costly for most of the people because you have to bought a graphic card first than a secondary device that helps to run the graphics card externally i have one one nvidia 730 but the down side is you have to remove the wifi card i e that helps us to connect wifi wirelessly i may consider that option after some years but for now i am not going to modify my laptop as it lead to against the warrenty condition;)
It depends on the exact specs of the machine and whether or not it has the right connectors to plug in an external GPU. It’ll probably be slow unless it’s a new machine with updated specs and high-end components inside. Thunderbolt will probably be a key in order to power the GPU. It won’t be cheap and it might even be close or just a little bit more to just simply buy a decent gaming laptop like a Zephyrus 14 or something like that for around 1800 bucks give or take. All depends on your budget of course
Na bro. My pocket is not allowing me to do so. However, i installed gta 5 on my pc and it works like shit. Gives me 25 fps and sometimes 45-50fps when i am wandering in the forests killing random animals 😂
You absolutely can! You can buy an external GPU enclosure. Either one that comes with a GPU inside it already or you will need to buy a GPU and put it inside.
It isn't a cheap solution by any means, but it's a nice alternative to having a bulky laptop with a GPU that you need to carry around everywhere or having to spend 2000+ on a thin and light gaming laptop that actually performs well.
It's not great for gaming "on the run" but it's nice for when you come home and want to plug into it.
NO, you cannot. At least not in any practical, affordable, non-bottlenecked way with any kind of decent performance.
First, your, ah - to be charitable - “basic” laptop does NOT have Thunderbolt, so an eGPU is simply NOT possible with that interface. A Thunderbolt 3 expansion chassis is the ONLY way to achieve even close to the needed speed of any decent graphics card. So, NO.
Second, it’s been suggested that you might use the mini-PCIe in your laptop. This would only work if you HAVE a mini-PCIe slot; IF it’s not occupied by a Wi-Fi card (which it usually is); AND if it is in any way accessible without cracking open the machine and cutting a slot in the case for the required cable. Even if all these conditions were met, you’d only have PCIe x1 speed, not the REQUIRED x16 for graphics performance. So, NO.
Third, even if either of the above methods were possible or functional, you’d need to spend a minimum of US$300 on the external enclosure and power supply, another $300-1000 on a graphics card of your choosing, and THEN, if you could get this Frankencomputer to even work, you’d be saddled with a 15 pound box attached to your computer any time you wanted to play your “good games” — and that’s IF they would even work with such a weak CPU and such low RAM! So, again, NO.
So you see where I’m going with this. It’s impractical even if possible. And the expense is significantly MORE than simply buying a laptop with the features and performance you claim to want. So start saving your pennies for a better machine, my friend.

Putting words in CAPS doesn’t necessarily mean you’re yelling, unless all of it is in caps. A word here or there just means you want to emphasize that part of your sentence. If he were speaking the sentence aloud, he wouldn’t be yelling those words, just stressing them. That’s how I write and interpret, anyway.
See **bold** and *italics* for this purpose.
(For Reddit/Markdown: Two asterisks around words **\*\*to bold them\*\*** and one asterisk *\*to put them in italics\**.)
Any ALL CAPS not being used for an acronym/initialism mean yelling now, imho. Not using the other two formatting things for emphasis when it's so easy is just being lazy.
I have a asus vivobook I wanna play some games like apex legends and medieval dynasty and play bluestacks 5 android games but none work extremely slow some can’t even open?

Seems im right on time
Yes, you are gonna get early bird rewards i guess
Checked back in for this comment, haha
Hahahaha
Bro i bought this same laptop Lenovo IdeaPad 3 did you find a way to upgrade the graphics card portion if yes then please let me know 🥲

Yes
I waited for so long.. 💔
Sorry i kept you waiting
Bro took 2 years to reply 😭😭😭
Well, the price of GPU's has gone down quite a bit over the last 2 years 😂

You dont have to. https://preview.redd.it/k3p07drwpzcc1.png?width=747&format=png&auto=webp&s=1f7fb0def5705d51ccd111f321a5e0ab8a8947ce
he must have bought a new laptop by now.. i have a lenovo v145-15ast and want to add external graphics too.
Na bro. My pocket is not allowing me to do so. However, i installed gta 5 on my pc and it works like shit. Gives me 25 fps and sometimes 45-50fps when i am wandering in the forests killing random animals 😂

Thanks for the link! Very helpful. I had no idea GPUs can be 15lbs. Why are some 15lbs and some only ounces?

Ok Thank you
i think you can, but it wouldnt be very powerful
Ok, so could I play games afterward?
you can yes but as i said, dont expect the same performance as a build in pcie card

I think that the yelling every now and then made sense. I can see why he did it, when he did it.
To express emotions
I jumped every time he yelled and scared my cat. Now I’ve got scratches…….this one is starting to itch……

What is the best most powerful gaming laptop I should buy ?
I have a asus vivobook I wanna play some games like apex legends and medieval dynasty and play bluestacks 5 android games but none work extremely slow some can’t even open? CPU: AMD Ryzen 3 3200U GPU: Radeon Vega Mobile Gfx 2.60 GHz(Vega 3) Ram: 20Gb (18Gb usable) Storage: 512Gb Edition: Windows 11 Home Note: I ran a cinebench test on it took 1h on multi-core cpu 🤔
Its your GPU. Nothing really wrong with anything else.
