2. My current ram is still 8Gb, can I upgrade it to 24Gb? 8x16?

RAM can go up to 2x16 = 32 G. For best performance, install pairs (if you install 8+16, it may work but won't give you the best performance, as only 16G will be at full bandwidth -- the rest will only have half bandwidth.
While you can upgrade to an FHD panel, you will also need a new wiring harness -- and the parts will likely run you $100+ together, or about 2/3 the value of the entire system. Only you can decide if the parts are worth the investment, but FHD i5 5410 systems are on EBay for $100-150 complete and working.

We need to know what model you have for anyone to supply an answer.
