Hi:

 

You would only be able to upgrade to this model card...

 

Realtek RTL8821CE 802.11 ac 1x1 WiFi + Bluetooth 4.2 Combo Adapter (MU-MIMO supported) HP part # L17365-005.

 

The only place I have been able to find this model is on eBay.

The card has the same throughput as the RTL8723BE on the 2.4 GHz wifi band, but on the 5.0 GHz wifi band with an AC router, it has a maximum throughput of 433 MBPS.

If you want to go through all of the trouble to completely disassemble the entire PC including the display panel area to properly run a second antenna cable, and you can find the correct antenna kit listed in chapter 3 of the service manual for sale someplace, you could only install the Intel 7265 card with the part number listed in the service manual, chapter 3.
