Hi:

 

You can't upgrade the graphics without replacing the entire motherboard with one listed in the service manual that may come with better graphics.

 

The graphics adapters in your model are graphics chips soldered to the motherboard.

 

They cannot be upgraded.

You're very welcome.

 

Probably as much or more as buying a new notebook with the 1060 graphics.
