Laptop Memory Upgrade

[Pinball-Fantasies]

At the moment my Dell laptop has 16GB DDR4 3200 MHz but thinking about upgrading to 32GB 3200 MHz
Looking at these below

Is there any performance difference between these ive been looking at ?

Kingston FURY Impact 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) 3200MHz DDR4 CL20 Laptop Memory Kit of 2 KF432S20IBK2/32 ​

Corsair Vengeance SODIMM 32GB (2x16GB) DDR4 3200MHz C22 Memory for Laptop/Notebooks - Black ​

Why do you need so much memory? Is this for gaming or just general windows use?

General Windows , Microsoft Office 2024 and photo editing

Unless you're working with massive images in RAW format 16GB should be plenty.

Open up control panel task manager open up your photo editing app open a couple of the biggest images you would normally have open and observe how much RAM is being used

I am using a lot of 4K and 6K images

I’m with you, I have 16gigs of RAM in my laptop and I’m considering upgrading to 32.

Either RAM kit should be fine but I’d probably go for the Kingston with the slightly lower CAS latency.

I would suggest you do a BIOS update first tho.

I was going to upgrade my laptop but buying extra memory is better option i think and cheaper . I did go for the Corsair Vengeance SODIMM 32GB
