A Bit of Help w/ my Graphics

[battleof3]

So I got my first laptop a couple years ago, a Toshiba Satellite Axxx-xxx (Forgot the exact model number). It came with Windows Vista (yuck), and about 5 viruses. I ended up wiping the drive and putting Linux Lite on the machine. Works great now. However, I was wondering if I could upgrade, swap out, or even overclock my GPU. I ran the

lspci

command in the LX Terminal, with this being the output:

Anyways, I was just wondering if you guys could help me out. Much appreciated!


-EDIT- P.S., I apologize if I posted this in the wrong section of the forums. This is my first day on the forums. I also apologize if I formatted the post incorrectly. I got kicked off of AskUbuntu.com for formatting a couple posts incorrectly. .-.

It is generally accepted that upgrading laptops is not possible. If you wanted more memory or storage you could probably do something, but when it comes to CPU or GPU laptops aren't designed to be upgraded. You may be able to overclock, but not usually on a standard laptop.

I would say your best bet if you want more power is getting something new.

The only way you can OC your GPU is if it's a dedicated GPU, and not an integrated GPU (integrated onto the board, or as an APU with the CPU).

'Aight. I thought so. Just wondering if there was a way to do such. Thanks for the time, guys! And I am probably getting a Lenovo IdeaPad y410p this coming August, so I'll be better off by FAR by then.
