It's not really something that is widely supported yet. It would need to be Thunderbolt to PCI-E, and it would be very expensive.

In that case it would make more sense to just build a new computer..

No one judges. We respect people either on a budget or people who just can't afford the crazy prices today.

Linus discovered this unnamed thing that basically answers your question. Go on his youtube channel and look for the 

I'm just going to link it:

But it isn't out yet, and probably won't be for a while.

Basically you can have a laptop with a sick CPU and shit GPU and bring that thing along (in a suitcase probably lol)

Selling my parts of my 900D rig for a jacked up Ncase M1. PM me for offers if interested (will take some reasonable-low offers because I'm desperate).

Parts that I'm selling: 900D (1 slot cover broken for stealth DVD drive mod) | Asus Z87 Deluxe | Cooler Master 212 Evo | Corsair 4x2GB black ram @1600mhz | EVGA 1000G2 PSU (2 cables with missing heat shrink) | DVD drive | HP membrane keyboard | Ducky Shine 3 YOTS in blue switches (warranty sticker broken)

Buy these. Open up the Acer and put all of the parts except for the PSU in here. Plug everything in and you will be able to put in a graphics card.

although my WD black got a bit hot and I had to put a fan next to it to keep it cool
