You cannot upgrade because the Celeron N3060 is soldered into the motherboard. Installing a GPU into the CD drive bay was only possible with certain models of the Lenovo Ideapad Y series gaming laptops a few years ago because that is how Lenovo designed the laptop.

If you want better performance, then you need to save up money to buy a laptop that is more capable than your current one.
