Hello everyone, I was watching YT videos on how to upgrade my A16 2025, if ever ram and ssd prices go down (sooner... i hope), then a teardown of an F16 model and assumed it had the same layout of the components, but instead I got curious as to why it was different. Curiosity led me to these questions:

  1. What is the red box supposed to be and why is it missing in the A16 model?
  2. The F16 model has an extra ram shield(?) on the second RAM slot (green box) but it's also missing in the A16 model. If ever i do install another stick of RAM, is there any difference with or without it?

That's all. Thanks!!
