 Upgrading the GPU is not a thing. Can't be done without motherboard replacement which is cost prohibitive. Max memory you can check from the command line as described in this article:

At least 32 gigs more than likely. You likely do not need that much and adding a second 8 gig module would be beneficial but beyond that the returns diminish quite a bit.

This is a very new laptop and I am having trouble locating detailed specs. eGPU is only going to work if the USB-C ports are fully compatible with Thunderbolt. Not all are. Even then an eGPU is not a wonderful solution. You have to have an external monitor, an external power supply and an eGPU dock with a good video card. It will work, however. Almost as cheap to just build a gaming desktop computer.
