Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.
To get the answer to this question, Start with upgrading your laptop's RAM memory, the hard drive, and the video/sound cards. In some cases, third-party manufacturers make compatible memory sticks that work with a variety of notebooks.
After reading your post, I did go through the Product specifications of your product and found that you have 1 TB 5400 rpm SATA hard drive installed on the PC.
NOTE: HP does not recommend upgrading or downgrading hardware parts or software that is bundled with the product as It may affect the manufacturer's warranty and performance, however, you could change the configuration at your own discretion.
Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.

Yes! you're correct only RAM and Storage drive is a replaceable part. The CPU is mounted on the system board hence you cant change CPU.

To get the answer to this question, you cannot use an external graphic card and it's not meant for laptop computer.
