Hi,

 

Yes you will able to upgrade the GPU to the NVIDIA GTX 1080 TI.  Look for a mini ITX verson of the 1080. However, you will also need to replace the power supply.  I suggest a 500+ watt psu with at least one 8 pin PCIe auxiliary power connector

You don't necessarily have to buy the ITX version but make sure what you buy will fit inside the PC.
