Change the Graphic Chip of a Vaio VGN-FZ31S

[lacribeiro11]

Dear Sonny and Community,

I have a Sony Vaio VGN-FZ31S and I need to change the graphic chip.

The graphic chip is NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GS.

I need help about the following information:

1. Which graphic chips can I buy for my laptop?
2. How to change the graphic chip?
3. Do I need to take out the keyboard?

I want to thank in advance about any information.

Hi Ribero and welcome.

The graphics chip is soldered into the motherboard and it is not economical to change this chip.

Why do you need to change the chip?
