I'm interested more into what random memory could i add to replace the 8 GB one and what other GPU could be used .
Would a 16 GB 2666 DDR4 work ?

You are welcome, @bigbogdan98!
I guess my old eyes are letting me down. I didn't see the part about the GPU.
Here is a HP Knowledge Base article that will tell you what to consider when adding or upgrading a video card. You will have to consider the fact that you only have a 310W power supply unit (PSU). The motherboard in your computer is HP proprietary. It has a 4-pin power connector instead of a standard 24-pin ATX power connector. You will have to buy any PSU upgrade from HP. The most powerful PSU that HP sells is 500W (L05757-800). You will have to contact HP Customer Support to see if they sell them in your country.

@bigbogdan98 , welcome to the Community.
Here is the "Motherboard Specifications" page for your computer. Look at the section titled "Memory upgrade information". It tells which memory is compatible and the maximum amount you can add. It is best to add the memory in pairs to take advantage of the "Dual channel (2 DIMMs per channel) memory architecture" in the motherboard.
