Haven't tangled in hardware for years besides cleaning my desktop once in a while but for $20 I can upgrade it for him.
Isn't for dual channel for both stick of ram to match? Perhaps things have changed?
Is this the max ram this laptop can have?
You sure this is exactly for this laptop cuz I might pull the trigger only $20.
Thanks again!

Also looking at $310 with 16gb ram but lesser cpu and cheaper(Same igpu?): https://www.amazon.com/gp/product...OATGLMRT2M [amazon.com]
ASUS Vivobook 14" i3-1215U (6core, 8 thread) with 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD, 1080p, Wi-Fi 6, Windows 11 Home
- More RAM is needed and always better for memory-hungry games
- Running with the soldered 8GB will only have the UHD Graphics. To enable the superior Iris® Xe Graphics, you will need to enable the dual-channel capability by adding another stick (either 4GB, 8GB, 16GB or 32GB, will run fully/ partially dual channel).
This upgrade will significantly improve the frame rate for gaming.Sign up for a Slickdeals account to remove this ad.

- The one your bought has a very bad bad viewing angle and dim 220nits TN panel. But this has much better 300nits IPS touchscreen panel.
- Ryzen 5 7520U is actually considered as a refresh of older architecture. In terms of benchmark performance, it's about 30-40% slower than this Core i5-1235U running in multi-core.
- The good thing about your model is that has already 16GB RAM (but soldered), but this one only has 8GB. As long as you know how and able to add a RAM stick, then it's not a real issue.
- It has a smaller 256GB SSD
In conclusion, this deal is much better in terms of quality and usability, provided that you will add an additional RAM stick.https://www.bestbuy.com/site/leno...1773882331 [bestbuy.com]

As I recall dual channel can give a lot of performance due to double bandwidth but wonder what partial dual channel means, im google it since as I recall it was either dual channel or not.
It's a little cheaper than this one. But no touchscreen, 16 GB ram instead of 8 GB. Bummer it doesn't charge thru USB C either. I've got a few old Lenovo chargers laying around (yellow rectangular), does anyone know if there's an adapter for this charger from the yellow ones?
Btw. Screen brightness is only 220 nits, which is fine since I never bring it outdoor.
Never heard of partial dual channel but again, haven't dwelved on hardware in years.

By activating Iris® Xe Graphics and dual-channel, you will see the significant benefits anyway.
I suggest not buying new intel products as they are an evil xompany

But I would be willing to get something like this if the price is right. Use until it breaks, then look at your options for replacing components (like the charger or battery), and see if it's worth it to you. It's probably worth spending 10% of the initial price to keep it running for additional years.

If you wanted to save a couple bucks and operate in true dual channel just buy an 8GB and you'd be good to go. 16GB would be a good total for this laptop
