    If so, where can you find laptop GPUs?

    Not possible.

    If you want to have a look you might find some laptop gpus on ebay possibly, not too sure where else they sell them. They aren't meant for retail channels, only for OEMs to install themselves.

    No...most (if not all) laptops cannot be upgraded. Unless yours in an MXM notebook (or a few of the Dell machines)...talk to Ice-Man about that.
