Hi,
Unfortunately, it is not up-gradable, the GPU and CPU are built-in to the motherboard on these models.

well as stated no, not directly, but if swapped motherboard yea you can upgrade, but would require finding a board with the cpu and video of your liking , but the cost might outweigh selling and replacing it ..
