Hi, I'm wondering if there is a slot on the motherboard that would allow me to replace the integrated graphics card with a discrete graphics card? If it is possible, I'm also unsure of where exactly I would find a discrete graphics card online, or where I would be able to buy one.

@Hououin_Kyouma1 Graphics card on a notebook device is integrated into the motherboard/chipset and cannot be removed or replaced, I'm afraid it doesn't have a pci express slot as such and a discrete graphics card system works when the device has two graphics card chip-sets working in the same board, the same is system managed and cannot be manually tweaked as per your preferences.

 

That said, please let me know why you need this information? are you having any performance issues on this device?

Please elaborate.
