HP Spectre x360 16 inch 2-in-1 Laptop PC 16-f1000 (508S1AV)

Hi, I was curious if it would be possible to connect an external GPU to this laptop. I have had issues using some rendering software with my current graphics card. Ideally, if possible, I'd like to connect an external GPU that would work with requirements such as these https://learn.enscape3d.com/blog/knowledgebase/system-requirements/ or https://lumion.com/product/system-requirements

Thanks
