Upgrade GPU on a Erazer X7847

Hi all,

 

I would like to upgrade a GTX1060 GPU on my Erazer X7847 laptop but I don't know if it is possible and if it is to what I would be capable to upgrade.

Anyone here who could help me with this?

 

Thanks in advance!

Hi @Furedetsu and welcome to the forum.

 

Could you please provide me the MSN number of your Erazer?

It is an 8 digits number printed in the label underneath your product.

 

Also, what update precisely do you have in mind?

Regards,

Gehringer

I've got an answer on the Dutch side of the forum.

Seems that the gpu is built-in, sadly...

Hi,

Obviously not quite the answer you wanted but an answer nonetheless .

Could you tell me what you were hoping to upgrade to? Have you considered using an external GPU enclosure?

Is the hoped for upgrade for gaming or do you need the GPU for heavy compute , training ML algorithms and such like?


Cheers!

Hi, the upgrade is for gaming.

Yes I've considered an external GPU but it seems you need a Thunderbolt 3 connection and my laptop doesn't seem to have one.

There is usb-c but that isn't the same...

Hi,

There seem to be a solution called "EXP GDC beast" for laptop without a thunderbolt 3.

Have you looked into it?

I wish I could help more but i have literally zero experience with that kind of setup.
Hopefully you can make something out of it.

The other way would be to look at gaming streaming services like "shadow" and the new Google stadia , this would nullify the need for an upgrade to your graphic card.

I hope this suggestions help somewhat.
