I was wondering if my macbook can change graphic card because currently I have GMA X3100 and it totally sucks Xp. I searched it in internet and some site says macbook is using intel chipset or something and cannot be upgraded. Some site tho says that it can be upgraded. I am totally new to these kinda stuff (like i would be blowing my mind trying to understand *** they mean by saying ATI or Radeon) so if possible please keep it in simple terms for stupid ppl like me XD
Can i change graphic card?

Simple answer, no, you can't change the video card.
It is integrated into the motherboard.

In general, the only things on a notebook/laptop that can be changed is HD and memory. Everything else is usually too well integrated to be upgradable..
