HP Pavilion All-in-One - 27-n041 would like to upgrade CPU ram?

[MargieTrefz]

Hi, my all in one is maxed out at 16gb of memory and we freeze up all the time.  Since I can't add more memory, can I upgrade the memory I have?   Also the cpu; can that be upgraded to faster hardware?  Currently Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4785T CPU @ 2.20GHz 2.20 GHz

I guess I'm wondering if the newer stuff is faster?  Even though it is the same amount, does it process faster so that we don't freeze?

hi

sorry @banhien  ,just two little things, then I'll leave you

@MargieTrefz 

check this

How to identify what is slowing down the computer

and report the result to @banhien 
the only possibility, possibly would be the replacement of the HDD, by an ssd
