The specs of your machine is

 

             https://support.hp.com/au-en/document/c06457019

 

Two things you can not upgrade: CPU and GPU because they are soldered down to it System board. That leaves you 2 things you can upgrade

 

1. RAM: It has  8 GB DDR4-2666 SDRAM (1 x 8 GB) now. You can upgrade to

           (a) 16GB: add same exising 8GB to slot 2 or using the following compatible RAM

                      https://www.crucial.com/memory/ddr4/ct8g4sfs8266/ct16330040

           (b) 32GB: install 16GB each to both slots using the following compatible RAM

                     https://www.crucial.com/memory/ddr4/bls2k16g4s26bfsd/ct16330043

          (c) 64GB: install 32GB each to both slots using the following compatible RAM

                    https://www.crucial.com/memory/ddr4/bl2k32g32c16s4b/ct16770119                (will run at 2666MHz)

 

2. STORAGE: It already has  256 GB PCIe® NVMe™ M.2 SSD. No need to upgrade but if you wish to use larger capacity you can use

              https://www.samsung.com/au/memory-storage/970-evo-nvme-m2-ssd/MZ-V7E2T0BW/
              https://www.crucial.com/products/ssd/crucial-p2-ssd
              https://www.crucial.com/products/ssd/crucial-p5-ssd
         Or similar from reputable vendors.
                One example with compatible drive
