Hi:

 

Your notebook does not have a graphics card that can be removed or upgraded.

 

It has a graphics adapter (GPU chip) which is an integral part of the motherboard.

The specs of your machine is

and manual for the series

Sorry, you CAN'T change the video card. Actually changing GPU on a normal notebook now means buying new system board (if available) which has

 

    (a) Motherboard,

    (b) CPU / Processor

    (c) dGPU

    (d) New Windows license (you can't reuse old license)


Because all 4 above components are on one piece of hardware called system board. If you wish, please use a list on page 67 of the manual.

 

Regards.
