Upgrade a laptop to a gaming laptop?

I bought a laptop before 2.5 (unfortunately not a gaming laptop) with which I was very satisfied for a long time. However, I've noticed in recent months that my laptop with games like Fortnite is having more and more problems. Although I still have 60 FPS (on low settings), I often have framedrops at 2-3 FPS and that just sucks when you're in a fight. Since I do not want to buy a new laptop, I would like to try upgrading my laptop with new, up-to-date components. Would that be possible and if so, what would you recommend to me? My laptop currently has the following:

Intel Core i7-6500 2.5GHz with overclocking to 3.1GHz

NVIDIA GeForce 940MX with 2GB Dedicated VRAM

16 GB DDR 4 memory

256 GB SSD (almost full) + 2'000 GB HDD

If you still need to know something, you can tell me!

I thank you in advance!

You never buy a laptop to gamble. That is and has always been nonsense. Upgrading is also very difficult now, as you can't open the case without losing the warranty and if you have no idea, you can damage the components as well. It would be better to gamble a PC, There you can also change the parts to your heart's content. Of course, as far as they fit together.

Okey, thanks for your help! PS: My laptop is no longer guaranteed.

As for the full SSD, try to move unnecessary files such as images etc on the HDD. The SSD is better to fill only with programs, while non-urgently needed files, which may also have a longer load time, belong to the HDD.

Laptops usually can't be upgraded, and if so, then only very limited, because:

Processor and GPU are mostly soldered.
The parts have a special form factor that you do not get so hard or, and then usually only in a small selection.
The cooling performance and electrical power are designed only on the hardware installed. Higher hardware could cause overheating.

After a short search, I found out that there's no i7-6500, only an i7-6500U, the U models are almost always soldered, including the 6500U.

The graphics chip is also soldered.

An upgrade to a gaming laptop is unfortunately not possible.

That's why laptops are often unpopular with gamers.

Basically, you can't upgrade a laptop because the individual components are welded together and they break if you separate them. The RAM and the hard drive are going to upgrade at most.
