What make/model laptop?
Not every laptop supports changing graphics card.
Not every laptop supports externally connected graphics cards.
In fact - most laptops don't support that.

I hate to be a negative nancy here, but this is something you probably should abandon for the following reasons:

• Very few laptop models support swapping of the graphics. The only ones I'm aware of are Alineware's (which I believe have been proprietary in the past few generations) and Clevo (which includes other brands since they're a turnkey producer).
• Replacement laptop graphics cards tend to be stupid expensive if you can find them. Although recent pricing has gone down, the last time I looked when the RTX 20 series were out, they were commanding over $1000 for a higher end one. And even before then, higher end ones were hovering well above their desktop equivalent.
• Power and cooling requirements may exceed what your laptop is capable of.
• If you have a Thunderbolt 3 port, you could get an external graphics enclosure, but a decent one with a power supply will run you at least $100-$150. And then you have to find a graphics card.

This laptop has no discrete graphics card so you can't even upgrade it and has no Thunderbolt port so you can't add an external one.

You're not getting a graphics card for this thing.

Yeah. Discrete graphics not possible there.

I have a GTX 1660-TI in mine and is quite satisfied. It runs a little slower than 3050 or so, and if you really want something good, get minimum 3070 card. As I could gather 3070 runs about twice the speed of 3060. I don't know about the higher cards from there, because they are basically ultra expensive. Else, wait for the Geforce 40xx cards, they are supposedly trailblazing 2-4 times or even more faster than what we got right now.
