I have a samsung r60 plus laptop which currently has an ATI Radeon x1250 video card. Can it be replaced with an ATI Radeon x1300? Reason for replacing is so I can use The Sims 3, or would my current video card be compatiable? Any help would be appreciated!

no it cannot be replaced, the only thing you can realistically do is sell the laptop and put the money towards one with dedicated memory

Most likely NO you can not upgrade your video card laptop.Beside the 1250 and 1300 are basically the sameTest your Laptop for SIMS 3 here http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/Sims will play on your laptop even if below sys requirement,, but at lower resolution ,and you cab also lower Graphic setting of the gameDownload the DEMO (if available yet) of sims 3 to test if it look pretty enough for youSynn

you would need to replace your entire motherboard to upgrade your video card and that would cost you about 300-400 bucks if you include laborThe radeon 1250 is a pretty bad card, it is still considered "integrated graphics", but you should be able to play sims3 on it with very few problems. I'd turn down screen resolution a bit aand turn down 3d effects and you should get ok usage. It uses "shared ramm" so you can get better performance by shutting off all aps that are unncessary and by maxing out your ramm.The 1300 is NOT that much better than the 1250
