Maybe i can get a SSD? or upgrade my ram to 16gb?

Haswell 22nm Technology
RAM
8,00GB Single-Channel DDR3 @ 798MHz
Graphics
2047MB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 850M 

 

HDD 1T 7200rpm

 

Tips are welcome,

My guess would be RAM and HDD should be capable of an upgrade.

 

Most mobile gaming laptops don't have much leeway for upgrading gpu or cpu.

 

As for SSD not sure. I would check reviews for that specific model to see what, if any, options you might have.

i'm going to bring my laptop to the store because my screen is flashing the whole time... 

I don't know how it could happen, it almost never leaved my desk.

 

 

Uhm so i can upgrade my RAM with how much , and around what price will it be? 

and I can upgrade my HDD to a SSD, because my friend did it , but i don't know if it's worth it

A kit of 16gb DDR3 memory will run you roughly $175 USD. You can upgrade your HDD with an SSD, but you need to consider a few things. First is what you are using the computer for (gaming I presume)? Second is sizes of those files and whatnot.

You won't run into any space issues with a 1TB hard drive, though treat the computer with care, as always. Whereas SSD's come in flavors like 128GB (roughly $65-75 USD), 256GB (roughly $150 USD)... and if you're willing to shell out your wallet, there's even 512GB models coming to market. However, the cost is still roughly 50 cents per GB, which is quite high in comparison to magnetic drives.
