My school pc is a Toshiba Tecra s11-11h. It runs an i5-520m and a nvidia nvs2100 gpu. Am i able to switch out my graphics card?

Even if you have removable GPU is available for your laptop it still be really hard to find and source in a GPU for a laptops because most of GPU are specially made for per model.
