Okay, let me just put this in perspective for you. Adding a PCI-e slot on a laptop is a VERY difficult task. You need to know a lot about soldering and power supplies. Moreover, replacing a GPU on a laptop is 20 times harder then replacing it on a regular 'ol tower. What I'm trying to say is that you can save a lot of time and frustration if you save your money to buy a a gaming-laptop (or if you're feeling crazy; build your own desktop), from the looks of it you think that you need a multi-thousand dollar gaming-laptop to have an enjoyable experience when in reality that's VERY far from the truth.
Here are some budget gaming-laptops I found just by lightly searching Newegg that are significantly better than your current laptop:
Acer 15.6" E5-575G-5341: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834315423
Acer 15.6" V5-591G-55PV: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834315426
MSI 15.6" GL62 6QF-628 : http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834154112
If you still want to go with your plan to add a PCI-e slot to you laptop so be it, but I strongly recommend to just save up a bit more and get a budget gaming-laptop or build your own budget desktop, there are a lot of tutorials and build guides on youtube that could get you started.
