Hi:

Below is the link to the specs for that model PC.

The supported graphics cards are listed on the webpage.

Hi:

Those are the supported video cards HP offered at the time.

If you plan to install a different video card other than the ones listed, you will have to know two things...

1. That it works within the limits of your PC's power supply.

2.  That your PC's BIOS is new enough to work with the latest video cards out there today.

For example:  I have an HP 8200 Elite business desktop PC.

I installed a nVidia GT 730 graphics card in mine, which is not listed as a supported video card on the 8200 Elite specs page.

But it works because the card works within the limits of the 320 W power supply my PC has, and is compatible with the BIOS.

If I tried to install one of the newer nVidia GT 9xx or 10xx models, I doubt either of them would work because of the older BIOS my PC has.

Hi:

You cannot upgrade the gpu in that model.

I wouldn't be able to answer your question regarding any out of specification modifications to that notebook.

I don't believe you can use any of the available expansion slots for graphics cards.
