VPCJ12MOE - Graphics Card Upgrade?

Volksdevil — Thu, 28 Apr 2016 23:57:27 GMT

Hi, I have a Sony all in one VPCJ12MOE. I've had it a few years and it's been fine, but I'm now getting into gaming and it seems to be useless!

Can I somehow upgrade the Graphics card or adjust anything/Upgrade any settings etc?

It really struggles which is pretty dissapointing for what was a £1200 PC when I bought it.

Hi Volksdevil,

The graphics chip is part of, and soldered to, the motherboard making a change uneconomical.

Sadly the answer is to buy a dedicated gaming machine:smileysad:

Thanks Rich, I feared that may be the answer.

I have managed to find an updated driver for the intel i3 graphics driver (At intels website) which has bumped the directx from version 10 to 10.1 (Wish it was more like 11 though?) and it's also bumped the windows experience index up too. Not going to be enough though...
