Can I install a graphics card like a 2gb/ 4gb Nvidia 940mx like they are in the variants of this model with the same specification as my laptop has?

processor - core i5 7200U

RAM - 8 GB

Windows 10 home 64bit

 

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

 

It is not possible to install a graphics card as they come integrated on the motherboard along with graphics subsystem. The graphics chip is soldered to the motherboard.

 

You would need to replace the whole motherboard (with CPU etc...) which would probably cost more than buying new PC with desired specs.

 

Hope it helps,

David
