Okay, I'm back with another laptop question. I guess it's good that it's been awhile. Normally I know what I'm looking for.
Right now I don't want to buy a whole new laptop specifically for gaming. I'm on a budget and I'm saving up for something more worthwhile. Here's my issue:
To keep things short, I want to know if it's possible to upgrade the graphics card on this. My brother, who's awesome, bought me Skyrim. I have used this laptop for games, but this only works with lower-end graphic engines. Skyrim only barely lags, to where it's enough to be irritating.
Honestly, I'm surprised it can go on a medium setting with Skyrim. I haven't tried much with pc gaming as far as well known games.
Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately no (unless you swap the whole motherboard and it's often more expensive than a new laptop) and apparently there's no easy way to get eGPU either.

I figured as much. Most of the time with laptops I get, those are the ones I can't upgrade graphics wise. I'll just see if there's some accelerator that will work. I didn't buy this laptop, it was a gift, so I couldn't control what it had. But at the time I needed something quick, so I can't complain.
