Buy memory and SSD. I think on 512 (there is a system and everything else)

Do you really need a Blu-Ray? I would throw it out.
Double the RAM, 8 GB is not enough.
Add a 256 or 512 GB SSD for the OS.

You need to identify weaknesses in the performance of your PC and, depending on the availability of money, remove them.

Nakua in 2019 drive? I already forgot when I used the disks (although in the computer - it's really built in 2013 - there are two drives - in those days it was incredible cool!).
Bring the memory to 16, if there is the possibility of an
SSD, of course, at least 120G

I'll then add two more sticks of Hynix [H5TQ2G83CFR PBC] 4 GB RAM to the ones I already have, ok?
And I’ll also install a 500 GB Samsung 860 EVO [MZ-76E500BW] SSD, will that work?
