I'm looking for recommendations on which ram to choose from as I'm planning to upgrade my laptop sometime this year.
Specs:
- Asus Tuf A16 Ryzen 7 260
- NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 Laptop GPU with 8GB GDDR7
- 16GB DDR5-5600 RAM (8GB ×2, upgradeable up to 64GB)
- 512GB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD
I don't know much about specificiations, so I'm hoping to get some insights here.
Edit: I had to repost with the correct pictures.

So I just removed the sticker from my laptop but ended up with a somewhat darker shade, which can be visible from looking at a different angle. Is this permanent, or can it be removed?
I can finally retire my 9 yr old HP Pavillion and replace it with my own bought Asus Tuf A16. Time to start gaming now!
Any tips and tricks or suggestions for a new gaming laptop?
My father recently purchased an HP Victus last September, and to my knowledge, it's quite heavy for him to bring around as he would always travel.
Is it possible for him to trade it in with Jarir or Extra? or any store at that?
For Asus users out there, I recently bought an Asus Tuf A16 and was expecting the warranty to be covered for 2 years. Turns out, it's only 1 year. Is that the usual case?
If that's the case, is it recommended to purchase the extended warranty or premium care? Since it's my first ever laptop, I want it to be secured.
Let me know your experiences.

I was browsing online and came across this model of Omen. It's currently discounted in my place for about 1100$. Is it a good deal?
So, my mom pressed something online, and it changed everything on her home layout. Now, she's dealing with ads every time she opens an app. How can she fix this?
I was contemplating to get an LOQ but then came across this Legion Slim Model. Are the specs still relevant today? It's on sale in my place, which is about 1200$.
Hi everyone. I'm planning to purchase a laptop for myself. I was initially planning to get a Thinkpad but realized that I might need a graphics card for work and light gaming.
I came across an LOQ Essential, which seems a bit lightweight and got intrigued by it. However, it's all negative reviews online.
Model: Lenovo LOQ 15ARP10E Gaming (2026) Laptop – AMD Ryzen 7-170 / 15.6inch FHD / 512GB SSD / 16GB RAM / 6GB NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 GPU
For the model above, is it bad?
Or are there any alternatives for this? (zephyrus is way above my budget)

I was planning to get a Thinkpad but came across a Thinkbook. Is Thinkbook the lower end of Thinkpad? At the same time, I came across similar specs as what I wanted for a Thinkpad for a reasonable price.
- Lenovo ThinkPad E16 Gen 3 (2025) AI PC – 2nd Series / Intel Core Ultra 7-255H / 16inch WUXGA / 512GB SSD / 16GB RAM / Shared Intel Arc 140T Graphics / Windows 11 Pro

I'm coming from an HP Pavillion, which lasted me a good 9 years, so I was hoping to let it rest and replace it with a new Thinkpad. I've heard pretty good reviews about it, especially for a fact that my team lead owns one.
There are two models that I have in mind;
Option 1: Lenovo ThinkPad E16 Gen 3 (2026) Copilot+ PC – 2nd Series / Intel Core Ultra 5-226V / 16inch WUXGA / 512GB SSD / 16GB RAM / Shared Intel Arc 130V Graphics / Windows 11 Pro
Option 2: Lenovo ThinkPad E16 Gen 3 (2025) AI PC – 2nd Series / Intel Core Ultra 7-255H / 16inch WUXGA / 512GB SSD / 16GB RAM / Shared Intel Arc 140T Graphics / Windows 11 Pro
Not much of a tech guy but is there a huge difference between the Ultra 5 and an Ultra 7? The latter is about 80$ more expensive. Moreover, I'm hoping for RAM and SSD upgrades in the long run.

Hi everyone. It's my first time purchasing a laptop for myself, and I wanna make sure I do it right. I already have a laptop in mind, but I don't know where to buy. Based on my research, there are stores like sharaf_dg, e_max, and such.
I'm an entry-level engineer looking to replace my old laptop with a lightweight and durable one. I don't bring much work at home, and I seldom wfh.
Which laptop would you recommend is a better deal?
Option 1: HP OmniBook X Flip 2-in-1 Convertible (2024) Laptop – 2nd Series/ Intel Core Ultra 7-256V/ 16inch 2K/ 1TB SSD/ 16GB RAM/ 8GB Intel Arc 140V Graphics/ Windows 11 Home/ English Keyboard/ Touch Display
