I own a XMG U506 with GTX970m. Does anyone know, whether (and how) one can upgrade there on newer graphics cards?

Not so easy, you have to get to a suitable GPU. They are not sold in the retail trade.

Almost impossible… Most graphics chips are soldered. And should they really be installed as a plug-in card you have to get such a card first. In addition, the cooling system of the notebook should be a further obstacle.

Graphics card is plugged in - that's why I've specified which laptop I own. According to my information, the gtx 10xx series have less power consumption and less waste heat… Then there would be no problem or?

I bought the laptop from mysn Schenker. Do you know if a barter is offered there? When buying the laptop was advertised that he was "updatable". LG

I would just call the customer service and ask for an upgrade.
