Hello DarkSchalie:

Sorry to say no you can't it's an inbuilt chipset on motherboard, this is however my personal opinion, you may verify it via HP Consumer Support Forum

Well, it's not my personal opinion.

It's a fact as verified by the notebook specs page. You have integrated graphics and no graphics expansion slots - which is typical of the vast majority of notebooks.
