OMEN by HP 17-an011na external graphics Omen accelerator

[JazzyGff]

As this laptop has an underpowered graphics card (gtx 1050) is it possible to use the Omen Accelerator to use an external graphics card solution with this laptop, it doesnt mention it on the Omen Accelrator details page.??

Thanks

I have investigated this further and since my laptop only has usb c and not thunderbolt it will not work, the transfer rate of usb 3.1 is not great enough unfortunately.
