eGPU on HP Envy DV6?

[htr63]

Hey everyone. About 18 months ago I bought an Hp Envy DV6 7215tx that I hoped to use for school work and gaming. I wasnt very smart tech-wise at the time, so I went with one with an i7 CPU and 8GB RAM, which turned out had a pretty useless GPU (GT 630m). Anyway, I had planned to build a proper tower gaming PC earlier this year, but ended up giving up because of financial difficulties, so I read around about how to improve your laptop gaming power instead, and found an article about DIY eGPUs. I did some research on them and found that they need a Thunderbolt connector, an ExpressCard slot, or an mPCIE slot. I know for certain that I dont have a Thunderbolt or ExpressCard Slot, so I was wondering, does anyone know if this laptop has a spare mPCIE slot, and where I would have to look to find it? And even if my CPU would be powerful enough to utilize an eGPU?
Thanks for any replies

Specs:
CPU: Intel Core i7 3630qm 2.4ghz (Turbo 3.4ghz)
Memory: 8GB 1600mhz
Current GPU: Nvidia GeForce GT630m 2GB
Upgrade GPU: Nvidia Geforce GTX 770/Radeon R9 270x 2GB
OS: Windows 8.1

Checked the manufacturers website and it mentioned no switchable graphics card option. So you're stuck with what you have unfortunately.

There is a way to connect those graphics card via a vidock, but those run at $200 each, you would need a separate PSU, and it makes your laptop highly immobile due to the requirement to have an external PSU on hand, and because you have to connect the display to a monitor.

You could get a decent gaming desktop new for around $600 if you built it yourself which would be many times better than your GT 630m.
