In my opinion. you are going to have a bottleneck with any card due to the mPCIe speed. If you are not looking into mobile gaming, you can consider acquiring a budget desktop build with a 1060, which will probably cost you way less that $1,000 and will have a definitive improvement in comparison with your current setup. 

Good luck!

I believe it will work, because its power consumption is slightly below the 970m.

Hey Guys, I'm Carlos and I enjoy playing video games. I like to build budget PCs with great OC potential, but I always end up not OCing because of my poor knowledge in the area. Hope I can learn more about it!

Have a great day!
