Any way to upgrade from Intel to a better graphics/video card? If not, is there a way to use an external card/dock on the pc?

I have an Acer Aspire AXC-603-EW14 and it doesn't seem to have any PCI or PCIE slots. So I was wondering if there would be any way to use an external graphics card since apparently there's no slot for an internal one. If so, would laptop external graphics card docks work? Or does it strictly have to be for desktops? Also, if anyone knows of any cheap graphics cards (and possibly graphics card docks) that might work, could you please let me know? I can only seem to find ones strictly meant for laptops only and apparently those are at least $500 (Canadian) for just the dock alone... at least from what I found through Google. There's no way I could afford something like that. I would be better off just getting another computer at that price.

Unfortunately, this is a small form factor desktop with a weak Celeron processor. The upgrade options are pretty much limited to RAM and hard drive. I'm assuming you want to do some gaming. I'd suggest that you save your money and build a new PC.

So low end I can't even find the manual for it. If it does have a PCI or PCIe slot on it the only cards you could use on it are the slim low profile kind from the Nvidia GT line (not to be confused with the main cards of the GTX line).

I'm in agreement with Scottray the machine is so low end it's kind of pointless to dump more money into it.
