Hi:

 

Your notebook only has the AMD Radeon HD 7420G onboard graphics adapter.

 

In order to upgrade the graphics, you would have to replace the motherboard with the one listed in chapter 3 of the service manual that has the discrete graphics adapter.

You would also need to buy the different heat sink required.

 

Doing such an upgrade is not worth the headache or expense.  That's if you could even find the parts.

I don't get it, there are no motherboards listed in Chapter 3. Then can I ask a question what is the spare part numbers in the items?
