Product: HP Pavilion Power Laptop 15-cb0xx
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi, My HP Pavilion Power 15 Laptop has an NVIDIA GTX 1050 Graphics Card, 16GB of RAM, 1TB of hard drive, and windows 10. I really like the computer (mostly for the amount of RAM) however, the performance is little low from expected! I'm an avid gamer and i would like to upgrade my graphics card to GTX 1060. Is it even possible to upgrade the graphics card on this laptop and also is there any option for M.2 SSD slot so that i can swap the Drive for better performance.!

Laptop graphics are not upgradeable. You should be able to add an SSD but I have seen some Pavilion 15 owners open the case and find the area is there but no connector. Best option is to open it and verify before buying an SSD. I can't find your Maintenance Manual with the model you gave. What is the Product number?
Easiest way to get that info- minimize all open windows so you can see desktop screen. Next hold the fn key and press esc key.
