No like what brand, and model laptop. I know what CPU is in it already. i7 4510u like you said. And i am 99.99% sure whatever it is, you wont be able to upgrade the GPU.
 
I hate to say it but with that processor you can only play games that are years and years older. The processor is a low wattage processor, 15watts.There is higher wattage processor, I think they are rated at 27w but I do know there is 37w and 47w processors.

So when ever you play a game, the graphics card will be fighting for power from the processor side. And since it has low wattage rating, you wont be able to play much games on it or you will be playing it a really low resolutions and details. The graphics card that you have is built onto the processor.

And in other bad new, the processor will be soldered to the motherboard. This processor is called BGA socket, soldered processors can not be upgraded.
