SO-DIMM upgrade speed vs timing

[FloppyPoppy]

Hi Guys,

I am currently looking at upgrading the sodim on my Laptop. It comes with 16GB 4800Mhz

The laptop has a 13700h and a 4080. Are timings more important or speed?

Looking at either 32 or to be fair 64gb kits seem reasonably priced lately.

Much appreciated for the reply! that is kind of inline with what i had suspected but wasn’t certain as a few generations have past since i’ve researched

If you're not aware already, be careful getting either: memory higher speed than stock, or memory with tighter timings than stock, since OEM systems often don't support manual configuration or XMP.

Thank you for that, as it happens i ended up ordering the same speed due to wanting 64gb for my photography edits ect instead of paying more for the speed and capacity.
