Hello house! Good evening
Without wasting your time, I want to upgrade my laptops ram
It’s currently having 8 gigs of ram, and it’s been slowing down a lot of late and I can’t run after effects or primeire pro on it

So I checked and realized I can just upgrade my ram from 8gb to 32gb, and that’d at least help out my situation a bit

Ps I have 2 ram slots

Now my qiestions are
1. What type of ram am I buying exactly, cause I can see there are different types. The one in my system presently is the SODIMM varient
2. How much will it cost me to upgrade from 8gb to 16gb or if I choose to go all the way to 32gb?
3. Is there any important thing I need to know before doing this?


My PCs specs

Core i3-7100u 2.4gHz
Intel HD 620 Graphics card

I do some after effects with a bit of 3D as well as photoshop and Pr pro. I work with 720p and 1080p footage a lot so I need more ram

Thanks!

Your laptop uses a DDR4 RAM type, you can buy an extra 8gb and make it 16gb.


Well 8gb PC4 is between #17-#19k depending on the seller, the single stick 16GB PC4 is a bit scarce.
I'll also advise you switch to SSD if you want it to be very fast.

Buy two 8GB RAM and upgrade it to 16GB
