HP Pavilion Power Laptop 15-cb0XX

[FrancoARG]

Hi everyone,  I bought some years ago a HP Pavilion Power Laptop 15-cb007na.

Games like CS-GO and Valorant  that doesnt need too many resources works very slow. I thought that with an intel i7-7700HQ processor and a geforce gtx1050 video card was going to work fine... I dont know if i need more RAM or a hardware upgrade.

Specs:

* Processor: Intel core i7 7700HQ
* RAM: 8GB
* Video 1: Intel HD Graphics 630
* Video 2: Nvidia Geforce GTX1050

* Disc 1: Liteon m.2 128gb

* Disc 2: 1tb HDD

Questions:

1) Could anyone tell me how many ram does this laptop support?
2) How many m.2/ ssd/ hdd support?
3) What can i do to make it work better?

Regards.

Sorry for my english.

Its specs

A1. RAM: It has  8 GB DDR4-2133 SDRAM (1 x 8 GB) now, it has 2 RAM slots and supports 16GB max. You can upgrade to 16GB by simply adding same existing RAM to slot 2 or use the following compatible RAM  (will run at 2133MHz)

A2. STORAGE: You already get good balance dual storage with M.2 SSD for System and 1TB of normal HDD for storage therefore any change from storage side won't give you much in terms of price/performance.

A3. First thing is to add more RAM and then use following tips
