I currently have a:
Aspire E

Model Name: Aspire E5-511-P2D6
Part Number: NX.MNYAA.002

Windows 8.1
Intel Pentium N3530 Quad-core (4 Core) 2.16 GHz
15.6" HD (1366 x 768) 16:9
Intel HD Graphics with Shared Memory
8 GB, DDR3L SDRAM
1 TB HDD

I can run most games like bo 2 league of legends etc at a good 45-60 fps but i need to install a graphics card to run it better. But my laptop is soldered so is there a way to unsolder it?

I would say nope. You are stuck with what you have got. You certainly wont be able to put a desktop video cart into it. Forget the 'soldering' the laptop case won't have any room.

Hence why most people here will recommend a desktop computer unless you absolutely need it to be mobile.

No i mean on different forums people tell me i can add a graphics card but it would cost a lot to de-solder My MB and processor and if a graphics card is even have matching sockets so i have to buy a motherboard. I need it to be mobile. I'm asking if i can put a laptop graphics card in a laptop one I've seen a lot of laptop graphic cards. And is there a way to unsolder a MB I'm pretty sure there is. I'm going to a computer shop later today anyways so ill ask. But I'm pretty sure you can unsolder something from a laptop and install a graphics card.

Generally only the high end gaming laptops have replaceable video cards.

For your laptop forget about it. If it's not performing the only viable upgrades would be hard drive or memory. I recommend saving up for a new laptop and next time be more careful about your future requirements
