15-e020tx is the model and it has an i7 processor and switchable graphics with Radeon HD 8670 so it is fairly high end as far as laptops go, but that is as far as they go. On laptops there generally in most cases, including your case, is no video "card" to be removed, replaced or upgraded. It is soldered right to the motherboard. There is no upgrade path in other words.
