here's a link to some parts but you may be better off getting a newer used
laptop.

Vit, see this link:

It doesn't work that way. Laptops do not use standard or
interchangeable components (except for the drives, memory and CPU).
Everything else is model specific. You treat the entire laptop as a
single component. You generally can't upgrade the motherboard, video
board, sound, display, etc. [There are a few isolated exceptions, but
they are just that .... exceptions]
