Hi! I have this model of hp with AMD Ryzen 3 5300u CPU and 16gb of ram, but I need a good GPU with it. Can I attach an external GPU with this model. It does have a USB-C port, but doesn't have the thunderbolt sign next to it—which I believe makes it non-thunderbolt. If I can, then kindly guide me as to how I can attach an external GPU with it. Thank you!

Having Thunderbolt 3 is one of the  requirements for using an eGPU, so using an external GPU is not going to be a viable upgrade.
