Hi!

I have this laptop for quite some time now and I would like to upgrade my graphics card but because it's a laptop I can't just replace it therefore I was thinking of buying an eGPU. So my question is, can I buy one or its impossible and if I can witch ones? 

 

PS.: I'm asking because believe an eGPU requires thunderbolt 3 Port witch I don't have

 

Regards.

Hello @Domingues,

 

Yes, unfortunately, the HP Notebook - 15-bs007np does not support an eGPU as it lacks a Thunderbolt 3 port. There are alternative solutions that involve using a PCIe slot but the upgrade is difficult and the entire setup is not exactly reasonable.

 

Furthermore, the graphics card is soldered and cannot be upgraded.

 

Hope that helps.
