Graphics Card - Upgrade

ROG GL553VE has Nvidia GeForce GTX 105ti Graphics......and I thing now a days....new games require more graphics performance....so is there any way to replace my GTX 1050ti with other VGA Cards e.g. 1060 or 1070.....if this replacement is possible then many gamers would suffice and would not need to buy a new gaming laptop and waste that much bucks.

Higher performing video cards mean higher heat output. Not great news for a laptop. Personally I wouldn't recommend it. However, in my opinion it's a question for the manufacturer to sanction it. Might require a cooling upgrade.

GL553 is not on this list but I'm guessing it's the next iteration of GL552. Meaning that CPU and GPU are embedded BGA packages - soldered directly onto the mainboard.

GL553 specs (HM175 chipset, HQ processor, "NVIDIA", soldered RAM) suggests that it's a machine designed for value gaming, not for upgradable powergaming.

The CPU and GPU are one with the motherboard and can’t be upgraded.*
