Yes you can upgrade your card. The 980M is the easiest upgrade and is a much stronger card than the 880M. You can also upgrade to a single GTX 1060 or 1070 and @Alienware Area-51 ALX 2006 has apparently put a RTX 2080 in his 18.

It’s possible to put the 2080 in mine as I’ve used a card from a Clevo.
