Please help review my specs

I've been contemplating since December, barely surviving on my 7 year old Samsung NP700Z5C-SO3UK, but its finally packed up so can contemplate no more.

My specs are overkill for City Skylines and photo editing, I'm certain, but the price is bearable, and I'm hoping to future proof.

I'm also wondering if I should go for 8Gb Ram and buy faster, but don't know if it's worth the hassle.

I'm grateful in advance.
