I've bought a laptop at the beginning of this year to serve me in both work and gaming and it's doing the job reasonably well. However, it only has 8GB of RAM & a SSHD, and for Widnows 10 and the latest games this is not enough, leading to some serious bottlenecks.

Question is - should I upgrade the laptop, an ASUS FX553, to 16 / 32 GB of RAM and possibly install an SSD or should I just go for a new laptop?

Intel Core i5 7300HQ 2.5 GHZ Quad Core
NVidia GTX 1050 4GB
8GB RAM
500GB SSHD
