Hi:

 

Your notebook supports 2 x 8 GB of DDR3L-1600 memory.

 

16 GB would most likely make a significant improvement over the existing 4 GB of memory.

 

Here is the link to the Crucial memory report for your notebook.  If you can get this memory in Pakistan, that would be your best option.

Below is the link to the service manual.

Another upgrade you can do would be to replace the 2.5" 500 GB mechanical hard drive, with a better performing 2.5" 500 GB solid state drive (SSD).
