I have hp pavilion notebook with i5 8th gen processor(8300 H), 8 GB ram with 128 GB SSD and NVIDIA GTX 1050.
So it sucks at gaming and can not even produce 60 frames in most of the modern games in 1080p.
Is there any way that i can upgrade graphic card to GTX 1650 or any other better graphic card without buying a new laptop.

Hi:
Unfortunately, there isn't.
The graphics is an integral part of the motherboard, and the only way to upgrade the graphics would be to replace the motherboard with one listed in your notebook's service manual that may come with better graphics.
Since your notebook is relatively new, a replacement board (if you could even find the part), would be very expensive.
