Yep, if you want better gaming performance, then you need to buy a new laptop. Just keep in mind that only specific gaming laptop models will allow you to upgrade the GPU. Just because a gaming laptop costs $2,500 that does not automatically mean you will be able to upgrade the GPU.
Nope. The graphics core is integrated within the AMD APU.

Only specific models of gaming laptops that typically costs at least $1,400 will allow you to upgrade the GPU... specific models...
