Hello @Meow3 

 

Your laptop has a dedicated graphics card that's built into the motherboard. It cannot be changed like you can on a desktop PC.

It would require a different motherboard which essentially means, you would need to buy a new laptop.

HP Does not sell replacement motherboards, if they did it would be very expensive. If you found a shop that could, the cost would not be worth it in my opinion.
