Trying to add a GPU to an Acer Veriton N6640G unit?

Hi guys, I was just checking if there's any way for me to add a graphics card to this unit. It has this extra module at the top. Like this:

Here's an actual photo of it:

Hi,
When you remove the back cover, does it look like the snip? I couldn't work out the reason for the space, could you please post more pictures of it, so that I can compare.

Hi,

That's the other panel that has the optical drive in it and an additional space for an hdd (probably an ssd too, dunno). The top module supposedly houses a GPU, but it has to be low profile cause the space there is small.

This unit already has an Intel HD 630 integrated in it, so there's 2 things I'm looking for:

- a gpu that fits in that top space

- a gpu that's better than the integrated HD 630, that the motherboard supports.

I can't find any info over the web.

Btw, this unit has an Intel i7-7700T cpu (2.9GHz w/ 8mb cache and 3.80 GHz Max Turbo). Link here.

Thanks!
