Upgrade RAM/SSD in Inspiron 7577

NekuTheDude on 23/11/2018 - 22:15

Hey guys, I was looking to upgrade the RAM on my Inspiron 7577 laptop. I don't know that much about RAM, or what my laptop is compatible with, so I thought I'd ask here. It currently has 8gb of RAM, but I find it slows down quite a bit when playing games, etc. I've heard that the best option is to add another stick of 8gb of RAM, but does it need to be the same brand/speed to be compatible with the current stick? I'm also looking for any black friday deals etc that are available!

I'm also looking for a new SSD. I saw that the EVO 860 is on sale now, and I was thinking of getting a 1TB. I'm a bit confused about the 2.5inch vs the NVMe though, are they the same thing but with different sizes to fit into laptops/PCs?

I appreciate the help, thanks!

    I'd suggest taking off the backplate of your laptop to see what is has. use the same type of storage drive and the same type of ram if there is a spare slot.

    I feel there would have to be guides on this specific model already.
    For the black friday sales I recommend searching eBay with the 20% off code.

    Check temps when gaming before upgrading anything.
