Installing a graphic card into a Laptop?
I got the EVGA 512-P3-N973-TR 512MB GeForce 9800 GT DDR3 PCI-Express 2.0 Graphics Card from a friend who didn't want it anymore since he got the area-51 x58 alienware desktop. I was wondering if it's possible to put the graphic card he gave me into my laptop. And if it is, would it be better to have a computer technician install it for me or just go to best buy and see if the geek squad can help me?
My computer specs are this:
Toshiba Satellite A305
Intel(r) Core(tm)2 Duo Pro T6400 @ 2.00 GHZ 2.00 GHZ
3GB RAM
