RAM update. Doubling your RAM on most low/medium -end consumer PCs will noticeably improve responsiveness and multitasking.
Recently had my RAM died on me and bought a new pair. I had a 16gb and the 32gb ones were on sale. Really felt the difference lol
I've literally never felt the need for more RAM, except on an old netbook that had 1GB and struggled with opening a website.
Clearly you haven't had the joy of having 10 tabs on Firefox, a film playing on VLC, the torrent client running, and trying to open up a large Solidworks assembly file on a 16GB Windows 10 PC. It gets eaten up fairly quickly.
No. I can't look at 10 browser tabs, a film, and a Solidworks assembly file at the same time, so doing that makes no sense to me.
