are you planning on using an e-gpu box? if so, it should have its own power supply. if not, how were you planning on connecting the GPU to the laptop?

That's group regulated PSU, notice how even total power on two 12V rails ain't even close to total total power rating, and even then it's very unlikely that it's multi-rail, most likely there's some specs fuckery going on.

Short answer - no, don't use it.
