You're stuck with it the way it is. There are only a very few laptops with changeable graphics systems, and that ain't one of them.

most laptop Graphics cards upgrades are made preventible.

If you already have a separate GPU, then it may be soldered to motherboard already making an upgrade preventible.

Heat is a huge factor, ventilation/space makes it very hot inside the refined laptop conditions.

The battery in your laptop will suffer greatly with a graphics card connected, if no card installed already, powering a new card will drain it super fast, leading to a mass shortening in it's life and efficiency.

As a whole, it may work and it may not, with al the issues you may face, i would highly avoid upgrading.

You can't fit a full size PCI card into a laptop...So you're stuck with whatever GPU your i3 has inside it (Intel® HD Graphics according to Intel's site).

Basically you can't upgrade a Laptop's graphics card as it doesn't have space for it, and any dedicated GPUs like the 650M, 750M, etc are soldered onto the motherboard, you *Could* unsolder them but that would be a rather difficult task, and not every laptop has a dedicated GPU, most have integrated, so if your Laptop doesn't have a dedicated GPU from when you bought it, you're stuck in the water.

TL;DR Get a desktop if you want to upgrade your GPU.

on a PC you plug in all the parts into a Mainboard, you can therefore swap them out and upgrade
on a laptop everything is on the motherboard, its all one PCB/one part so no upgrading
-the only thing you can realy upgrade on a laptop is the HDD or SSD
