Your machine is an OMEN by HP - 17-an053tx , its specs

 

      https://support.hp.com/sk-en/document/c05559558

 

You can upgrade RAM and SSD using the following fully compatible products

 

       https://www.crucial.com/usa/en/compatible-upgrade-for/HP---Compaq/hp-omen-17-an053tx

 

   (a) For RAM:  replace 2 x 8GB with 2 x 16GB

 

            https://www.crucial.com/usa/en/hp-omen-17-an053tx/CT12121216

 

  (b) For SSD: It has 2TB of HDD now, you can replace with 2TB 2.5" SDD

 

          https://www.crucial.com/usa/en/hp-omen-17-an053tx/CT12121243

 

     or you can add M.2 NVMe SSD   (a bit harder) and move OS and programs to it

 

         https://www.crucial.com/usa/en/hp-omen-17-an053tx/CT13043957

 

     you may need to buy more hardware to be able to do that

 

 (c) Video: Sorry no, even machine has NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1060 (6 GB GDDR5 dedicated) but upgrading it you need new system board (if available) with new CPU, new OS ... which is very expensive because all 4 components (motherboard, CPU, Video card and Operating system) are on 1 piece of hardware called System board. You may have to buy different RAM too.

 

You can buy from RAM and SSD from Crucial above or buy similar specs from Samsung products.

 

Regards.
