Hi:

 

The graphics adapter is an integral part of the motherboard and cannot be upgraded without replacing the motherboard with one listed in your notebook's service manual that may come with better graphics.

 

Replacing the motherboard on a relatively new model such as yours would probably cost about as much as you originally paid for the notebook, assuming you could even find the motherboard part you needed.
