Is there any way to upgrade the graphics chip in my Macbook?

A few years ago I bought a Macbook, and I've used it intensively ever since then. I've never really felt it was sluggish until I tried gaming on it(I didn't buy it with gaming in mind). I played some games on it for a good 5-6 months, but then it just got way too slow. I know I can boost the RAM (I have 2gb now), but it's the Integrated Intel GMA X3100 graphics chip that isn't cutting it. I think it only has 144mb of RAM. I understand that it is "integrated" which means you cannot switch it out like a graphics card, but does this also mean that I can't manually install another one if I tried (provided I had the know-how)?
