Most laptops, like yours, cannot have the GPU upgraded or another added. Their configuration is set when purchased, except for RAM and HDD/SDD, maybe CPU. Other upgrades would require a motherboard upgrade and that's only if there is an upgrade that fits your case.

It's not the same thing. For most laptops the GPU is soldered onto the motherboard and/or integrated into the CPU. In this case, you have both of those. I have never seen a entry level laptop with an upgradeable GPU. Only certain models of laptop have upgradeable GPU's and they tend to be expensive. And those that do have it, will usually have a notation like: [User Upgradeable], like the one here:

That is the cheapest laptop I found (on that site) that had a GPU that could be upgraded by the user after purchase.

Laptop upgradeable GPU's look like this:
