Advice on Memory upgrade for existing Laptop

[Magic_x_uk]

Hi. I have a Packard Bell Laptop
OS is Win 7 64

Spec is

AMD Processor V120
ATI Mobility Radeon HD4250
250GB HDD
3GB DDR3 memory


I have been on Crucial's web site and done a 'check'

I can upgrade to 8GB Kit (4GBx2),
204-pin SODIMM, DDR3 PC3-10600 memory module
Module Size: 8GB Kit (4GBx2)
Package: 204-pin SODIMM
Feature: DDR3 PC3-10600
Specs: DDR3 PC3-10600 • CL=9 • Unbuffered • NON-ECC • DDR3-1333 • 1.35V • 512Meg x 64 •

For £34

or 2x2gb for £23


would either and if so which ones, would be a worthwhile upgrade for my Laptop. At the moment I use it for general web surfing but am also slowly learning the ropes with Adobe Photoshop. Photoshop works ok, just sometimes can be a bit slow doing stuff.


Also, takes a while to open large .RAW Files from my digital camera.


Opinions please.

Thanks.

PS, Does OCUK Sell laptop memory and if so, which ones would be suitable, thanks again.

Thanks. BUT would adding more memory to this laptop and spec, be worthwhile and would I notice an improvement etc?

thank you

I would doubt you would notice any general performance in day to day running, but the extra may help behind the scenes.

Still tempted to buy some, just like to know if I will notice a worthwhile difference.

Just ordered that. hopefully will make Lightroom a bit quicker doing things.

I do hope so. Have 3GB at the moment so now upgrading to 8GB, hope I see a difference.
