There have been reports of very successful upgrades on the EliteBook 8770w with both GTX 980 and GTX 1070. People tried these upgrades years ago (up to 2019) and you can read about their efforts in:

http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/8770w-compatible-video-cards.795753/

Unfortunately the notebookreview site has gone offline for several months now, so use wayback machine (February 2020 snapshot is good).

 

Good luck upgrading!
