You have to purchase a video card from a computer store and then install it internally.



It should be PCI-E as a slot since it was made like 3 years ago. If it's older, then you have a slow processor which wont be good for gaming or photo editing.How to upgrade if my video card integrated with motherboard?
No if you want to upgrade video card you just plug it in not new motherbard is needed
You'll have to add an external one if your board has AGP or PCI-Express Slot for Graphics Card.
Depending on the age of your board, you can get either an AGP or a PCI/e graphics card to install.

First thing that you need to do is to check the manual of your mother board if it has an expansion slot available for upgrade.



Check if you have the AGP or PCI-Express slots as there are 2 types of video card slots out in the market today. AGP is used mostly for older types of mother boards, while PCI-Express is mainly used in newer boards.



Once you've determined if a video card expansion slot is available and what type then you can purchase the video card on your favorite computer store.



also when buying a new video card, determine first what type of applications will you be using, like if your jsut gonna use them for games, of for heavy graphics designing, etc.
Most motherboards, even with integrated graphics chipsets, will still have a PCI-E slot. You can upgrade it as you would with any other motherboard.



this applies to most modern motherboards made after 2006-07.
most boards since 95 have had the ability to install a graphics card

which replaces the inboard graphics adaptor

AGP

get the Motherboard manual and check which you have

if you don't have a manual look in system info and it may provide motherboard info
