I have an HP Pavilion g6-1c54wm, the specs of which can be found here.
I plan to add a second 4GB DDR3 ram chip in my empty socket, increasing my RAM from 4 to 8 (its maximum), and while I'm at it, I want to upgrade my CPU and GPU as well. My current CPU is an Intel Pentium B950 @2.1ghz, and the GPU is an Intel HD Graphics.
Upon further research, I found out that my weak Intel HD Graphics chip is integrated into my CPU. Does this render them both non-upgradable, or are there ways to upgrade? I mean, are there more powerful CPUs with integrated GPUs that are compatible with my laptop? Is there a way to remove my integrated C/GPU and upgrade them seperately? Does my PC even HAVE a separate socket for a GPU?
An answer to any of the above questions will help me greatly. I hope to learn all i can from whomever i can so i can be more self-sufficient in the future, but everyone has to start somewhere. I apologize in advance for that...
