Added an 8GB stick, there is 8GB soldered onboard. So it went from 8GB to 16GB - and I think single-channel to dual-channel.
Definitely wasn't expecting better performance for routine stuff, but...

Yes, but I went with this : Crucial RAM 8GB DDR4 3200MHz CL22 ( a bit faster RAM)

Bought this for my 10yo - basic enough for...

Two questions:
1) How are the speakers on this? My wife has the Intel version of this, and it's almost inaudible. My older Acer A5 is just fine, though.
2) Does it have a slot for a normal...

If so, would this be a good choice?

it’ll be better for gaming. simple as that. The integrated can push 720p-1080p low settings 30-60fps on most titles. The mx450 would probably run 1080p low-medium around 30-60fps
