Is RAM upgrade worth it?
I have a Lenovo Ideapad Slim 3(?)
These are my specs:
Processor AMD Ryzen 5 5500U with Radeon Graphics (2.10 GHz)
Installed RAM 8.00 GB (5.85 GB usable)
Graphics card AMD Radeon(TM) Graphics (2 GB)
System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor
The games I play are:
- Valorant
- Minecraft (w/ shaders)
- Life is Strange 1 and 2
- GTA V
- Watch Dogs 1 & 2
- Resident Evil 2 Remake
- Dying Light
I get like somewhere 40 to 80fps on these, though I usually lock it at 50fps. I put my settings in low graphics and resolution too (except for Valorant).
Because of my specs, I'm actually looking more into some old games these days, like GTA IV, the original Resident Evil games, or the Batman games before Arkham Knight. But considering that these games might already run well on my laptop, I'm thinking if getting a RAM upgrade is worth it and would help boost the performance of the games I'm playing and are planning to play, and also for when I get games that are slightly more recent?
